It comes down to how the trip is planned — the zones, the timing, and the forest rest houses booked long before you arrive.
Permits for the prime zones — Dhikala, Bijrani and Dhela — sell out very quickly, so it's worth planning early.

Tailor-made itinerarieswith no surprises.

Experienced English-speaking local naturalists.
Years inside Corbett. Not scripted tours — naturalists who can read the dust, the alarm calls, the way the morning light is moving across the Ramganga, and explain it in plain English.
- 02
Private safaris with no shared jeeps.
Your own gypsy, your own driver, your own pace. Stop where you want. Wait where the naturalist tells you to wait — never crowded onto a fixed convoy.

“Seriously! Kunal takes travelling in India to a different level. I was a bit reluctant to travel to India and terrified by the thought of doing a safari in an open jeep — but was I wrong! With Kunal you always feel safe and taken care of. From the moment we arrived at the airport Kunal checked up on us and travelled with us during the whole trip via WhatsApp in my pocket. Even before you board the plane, Kunal will have helped you put your trip together according to your age and wishes. The wildlife safari he organized for my husband and I at Jim Corbett National Park two years ago was simply so amazing that we just had to come back this February for a 'take 2'.”

“From start to finish our experience booking our safari with Kunal was excellent. Going into our first trip to India we were overwhelmed with safari options, but Kunal made the whole experience very easy. He presented us with a few options, created a detailed itinerary for our trip to Jim Corbett National Park, and booked transport to and from Delhi, accommodation and safari passes on our behalf. Our experience at Jim Corbett was incredible — we went on 3 safaris and were fortunate enough to see tigers, elephants, the great hornbill and many other animals. Kunal was very communicative throughout the trip to make sure everything ran smoothly. We can't wait to be back for another safari and we'll definitely be booking with Kunal again.”

Frequently asked questions.
Corbett is at its best from November to June. The cool months (November to February) are ideal for birdwatching and comfortable mornings, while March to June — the hot, dry months — concentrate wildlife around water and are the most reliable for tigers. The Dhikala zone is open from 15 November to 15 June; Jhirna and Dhela stay open through the year.
Permits for the prime zones — Dhikala, Bijrani and Dhela — sell out very quickly, so it's worth planning early.
Always private. You have your own gypsy, your own driver and your own naturalist — no sharing with strangers, no fixed convoy. It is the single biggest difference between booking with us and booking a seat online.
Yes. Corbett is one of the few reserves in India where you can stay overnight in Forest Rest Houses deep inside the core — Dhikala being the most sought after. Some of these houses are over a hundred years old, built in the days of the Raj. It is the closest you can get to living inside a national park in India, and we handle the notoriously difficult bookings for you.
