Quick Answer: Is There a Student Discount in Jim Corbett?

Yes. According to the current Corbett Tiger Reserve pricing information, Indian national students between 12 and 18 years of age are eligible for a student concession when they present a valid student ID.

The concession is not the same as a complete waiver of all safari costs. Vehicle, guide and other applicable charges can still form part of the total booking cost.

Jim Corbett Student Discount 2026: Current Concession

These concessions are based on the current official Corbett Tiger Reserve pricing information and may change with future government or reserve notifications.

Who Is Eligible for the Jim Corbett Student Discount?

The current day-safari student concession is available to Indian national students aged 12 to 18 years. A valid student identity card must be presented as proof of eligibility.

• Student must be an Indian national.
• Student age should fall within the applicable 12–18 year range.
• A valid student ID should be available.
• Details provided during booking should be accurate.
• Original identity documents should be carried for verification.

How Much Does a Student Safari Cost in Jim Corbett?

The student concession applies to the eligible student component. It does not mean that the entire safari becomes free or that every booking charge is reduced.

A Jeep Safari booking can also include vehicle and guide charges. The current official booking system states that Jeep Safari pricing is based on one Gypsy, whether the permitted booking has one traveller or up to six individuals.

For a complete breakdown, see our Jim Corbett Safari Booking 2026 Guide.

Jim Corbett Student Discount for Jeep Safari

Jeep Safari is one of the most popular ways to explore Corbett's designated tourism zones. Under the current pricing information, eligible Indian students aged 12–18 can receive a ₹375 concession per student on the applicable day-safari charge when a valid student ID is presented.

The booking can accommodate up to six individuals, subject to the applicable permit rules. Children below 12 years do not require a permit under the current Jeep Safari booking guidance.

Before planning your trip, check our Jim Corbett Safari Permit Guide for booking requirements and permit information.

Student Discount on Dhikala Canter Safari

Dhikala does not offer a regular day Jeep Safari. Visitors planning a day visit to Dhikala can use the Canter Safari option.

The current official pricing information provides a ₹1,125 student concession for eligible Indian students aged 12–18 who present valid student ID.

The Canter is a shared safari vehicle with a larger passenger capacity, so its booking and ticket rules differ from a Jeep Safari.

For more information, read our Corbett Tiger Reserve Guide 2026.

Student Discount for Jim Corbett Night Stay

Students can also receive a concession when booking an eligible night stay. The current Corbett pricing information states that students are entitled to a 75% discount on the per-person entry fee when valid student ID proof is presented.

Night-stay bookings have their own availability, room, visitor and permit rules. Check the latest availability and conditions before making payment.

What Documents Do Students Need?

Carry the original valid identity documents and the student ID used to claim the concession. The information entered during booking should match the applicable identity document.

• Valid student ID card
• Valid government-issued identity proof
• Correct name and age details
• Booking confirmation / permit

Corbett's current booking guidance requires accurate visitor details and original ID information for verification.

Do Children Below 12 Get the Student Discount?

The student concession and the child permit rule are different things. Under the current Jeep Safari booking guidance, children below 12 years do not require a permit.

The specific student concession is published for Indian students aged 12–18. Therefore, do not assume that a child below 12 qualifies for the student concession.

Can College Students Get the Discount?

The published student concession is based on the specified age range and student eligibility. Therefore, students should check whether they fall within the current 12–18 eligibility requirement rather than assuming that every college student automatically qualifies.

Carry valid student identification and verify the current rules before payment, especially if the traveller's age falls outside the published range.
