From the Hustle of Thanesar to the Sounds of the Jungle: The Ultimate Jim Corbett Safari Guide
Are you exhausted of the traffic, the commotion, and the work stress in Thanesar?
It’s time to trade the busy streets for the call of the Spotted Deer. It’s time to leave behind the skyline of Thanesar for the green Sal trees of the forest.
Welcome to Corbett Online Booking. We are a resident travel agency in Ramnagar (Jim Corbett), but we take pride in welcoming visitors visiting specifically from Thanesar. We know that when you come this far, you don't just want a "ride"—you want an memory.
Whether you are thinking of a vacation road trip or catching a train to arrive at us, here is your detailed guide to booking the ideal Jeep Safari.
The Route: Reaching Us from Thanesar
If driving: The drive from Thanesar is scenic but can be tiring. We advise starting at dawn to get to Ramnagar by mid-day.
If coming by Rail or Flight: Once you get to Ramnagar Station or Pantnagar Airport, don't bother about local transport. We can organize a cab to take you directly to your stay or the jungle entry.
- Tip: The recommended plan for travelers from Thanesar is usually a weekend trip to increase your luck of finding the Tiger.
