FAQs for Kandarpada Visitors
Q: Can I drive my own car (SUV/Sedan) inside the park?
A: No. Personal cars are not permitted in the main zones (Bijrani, Dhikala, etc.) for security. You must transfer into our registered Gypsy.
Q: We are a group of 8 people from Kandarpada. Can we fit in one Jeep?
A: The forest rule is 6 adults + 2 children (below 12 years) per Gypsy. If you are 8 adults, you will definitely need to book two Gypsies.
Q: How far in advance should we book?
A: Since you are driving all the way from Kandarpada, you cannot chance "walk-in" bookings. Permits sell out weeks in advance. We advise booking at least 30 days prior to your arrival.

A: Yes. Jim Corbett is one of the best tourist destinations in India. Our staff are trusted professionals who value your safety.
