Tour Overview
Deep dive into the wondrous landscape of Corbett National Park with our exclusive Tiger Safari tour. This park also called the land of the roar, trumpet, and song is home to the Royal Bengal Tiger, Asian Elephant, and close to 500 species of birds.
With a multitude of landscapes, varying from the Himalayan Foothills to flowing rivers, grasslands to even rocky hill tops, Corbett is the hidden jewel in the crown of Indian Wildlife. One major advantage of taking a tiger safari in Corbett is that you get to stay inside the jungle in a 100-year-old forest rest house in the Dhikala Zone.
The Dhikala Forest Rest House is located on the banks of the Ramganga River, where one can see herds of elephants grazing through the grasslands, or Ghariyals just laying lazily on the river bed.
Although basic in nature, Dhikala is a prime spot for wildlife photographers and serious wildlife enthusiasts who wish to explore Corbett National Park in all its glory.
You can also combine a Tiger Safari in Corbett with a cultural detour, by driving up to Agra or even combining it with other national parks like Dudhwa or Ranthambore.

Begin your morning tiger safari in Corbett at sunrise. Corbett has been aptly described as the land of the Roar, Trumpet, and Song. It represents a scene of remarkable beauty. Corbett National Park had the proud distinction of being the chosen venue for the inauguration of Project Tiger in India. The rich biodiversity of the Reserve is partly attributed to the variety of habitats here. Due to the location of the Reserve in the foothills of the central Himalayas, both Himalayan and peninsular flora and fauna are found in the Reserve.
Established initially as Hailey National Park on August 8, 1936, in honor of Sir Malcolm Hailey, the then governor of the United Provinces, the park’s name was later changed to Ramganga National Park in 1952 and subsequently to Corbett National Park in honor and memory of the late Jim Corbett, the legendary hunter, naturalist-turned-author and photographer, who had helped in setting up the park and in the demarcation of its boundaries.
