Corbett Jeep Safari is the most thrilling and flexible way to explore the beauty of Jim Corbett National Park. Operated in open 6-seater Gypsy vehicles, these safaris allow visitors to traverse multiple zones such as Bijrani, Jhirna, Dhela, Durga Devi, and Garjiya. Each zone offers a unique blend of dense forests, grasslands, and water bodies—perfect for wildlife sightings including Bengal tigers, leopards, elephants, sloth bears, and hundreds of bird species.
The safari is conducted in a 4x4 Gypsy, with a dedicated driver and a licensed forest guide. You can book either a shared seat or the entire vehicle. Morning and evening jeep safaris operate in various zones, each offering distinct ecosystems and wildlife. Safari duration is approximately 3 hours.
