Everything you need to know about permit reservations, jeep pickups, and payments.
Because the Kerala Forest Development Corporation (KFDC) restricts daily vehicle entry into Gavi to safeguard wildlife, slots fill up fast during weekends and peak holidays. We recommend booking 2 to 7 days in advance.
We provide complimentary pickup and drop-off from any hotel, resort, homestay, or Kumily KSRTC bus station in the Thekkady/Kumily town radius. Simply specify your hotel in the booking form.
Once you submit your booking request, your details are logged and WhatsApp opens with a pre-filled summary. We confirm driver assignment and forest permit status. You can pay via UPI or cash directly upon pickup.
You can cancel or reschedule for free up to 48 hours prior to your safari. If severe monsoon rain or Forest Department closures affect the route on the day of travel, a 100% full refund or free alternative date is guaranteed.
