From the City Life of Vapi to the Wilderness of the Jungle: Your Jim Corbett Safari Guide
Are you exhausted of the congestion, the commotion, and the routine in Vapi?
It’s time to trade the honking cars for the chirping of the Wild. It’s time to escape the buildings of Vapi for the tall Sal trees of Jim Corbett.
Welcome to Corbett Online Booking. We are a native safari planner in Ramnagar (Jim Corbett), but we take pride in managing travelers traveling specifically from Vapi. We understand that when you travel this far, you don't just want a "drive"—you want an memory.
Whether you are planning a holiday road trip or catching a flight to reach us, here is your comprehensive guide to securing the best Jeep Safari.
The Journey: Reaching Us from Vapi
If coming by car: The road from Vapi is enjoyable but can be lengthy. We recommend starting at dawn to arrive at Ramnagar by noon.
If coming by Rail or Flight: Once you land at Ramnagar Station or Pantnagar Airport, don't worry about local transport. We can arrange a car to take you immediately to your resort or the safari gate.
- Tip: The perfect itinerary for travelers from Vapi is usually a weekend tour to boost your luck of finding the Tiger.

A: The legal limit is 6 adults + 2 children (below 12 years) per Gypsy. If you are 8 adults, you will strictly need to book two Gypsies.
