Description

The best way to discover the park is through the "Elephant Safari" in Jim Corbett National Park. Undisturbed by the mechanical roar of a car or jeep, open to the skies, accompanied only by the rhythmic scuff-scuff-scuff of an elephant's feet and the creaks of the wooden howdah. The occasional booming of wild elephants to each other in close proximity can make you hang on tight to the wooden pole of the howdah. The ride can be a mix of moments of pure terror interspersed with long period of utter peace. We take you on this thrilling sojourn in the same way the royalty of yore did, centuries ago. From the first ray of the rising sun to the evening's deepest glow; the landscape unravels the untaught harmony of the primitive wild. The grandeur of the "British Raj" is relived in an old forest rest house (FRH) built in the late nineteenth century. The aura created compliments the aura of the past century when lanterns and fireplaces were used instead of electricity and where hot bucket baths were the only way to supplement your comforts. The safari is a great combination of various ways to observe wildlife and the main attraction being ridden the Pachyderm for an extended period of time. Elephant Safari in Corbett, takes you through deep valleys, dense forests and craggy trails without disturbance. The Elephant is the royal mode of transport. The height of the gigantic beast helps in viewing the wildlife species very clearly. The gorgeous picturesque, natural beauty, cool and calm atmosphere, fresh and fragrant air add a majestic excitement in the Elephant Safari Tour. Besides traveling on the elephant, the tour plan includes various activities including game drives into the National Park, hikes for bird watching, visits to local villages in the area, learning to ride the elephant, elephant baths. The wildlife observed on the trip varies as we pass through the different terrains.For all our travelers in approaching winter, we are suggesting small elephant back safaris extending to a maximum of 02 full days & then retire to some of the very outstanding & exclusively located wildlife lodges within the forest. Here also, you continue with your AM / PM Game view both on Elephant & Jeep. The game is excellent here.
