The family itinerary optimises for three things: short drives, medical access, and one “wow” per day. Corbett plus Nainital is the proven formula — tiger excitement for the kids, lake fun for everyone, hospitals and good hotels throughout.
Five days, two bases
| Day | Plan |
|---|---|
| Day 1 | Delhi → Corbett (260 km). Resort pool afternoon. |
| Day 2 | Morning jeep safari (Bijrani/Dhela) + Corbett Falls. Early dinner. |
| Day 3 | Corbett → Nainital (65 km). Boating + Mall Road. |
| Day 4 | Nainital: Snow View ropeway, zoo, café hopping. Careful: early nights. |
| Day 5 | Nainital → Delhi. Or Bhimtal stop on the way out. |
Family rules of thumb
- One activity per day, maximum two drives.
- Altitude: Nainital (2,084 m) is safe for small children; skip 3,000 m+ treks with under-8s.
- Carry medication and IDs (safety notes apply to kids too).
