Jungle Safari: Jim Corbett or any other Jungle Safari can add a thrilling experience to your journey.

Do Not Wear Perfume: Many animals like the tigers, the elephants become infuriated by peculiar scents. Thus, one must strictly not wear scent while going on such a trip.

Be Clean: Maintain hygiene as we are intruding into their personal space. So, one should not litter garbage in such areas.

Keep Children Away: Children scream and cry a lot. They may even try to woo animals. So, let us be protective in case of children.
