Really enjoyable! The day starts with a jeep ride through the forests. The roads were very good and we saw quite a few animals (no tiger, though). We stopped a lodge for breakfast (quite good and plentiful), then went on a 3-hour hike. We went pretty far into the forest with our guide and there were a lot of leeches. This was the only real downside to the hike. I would strongly suggest bringing leech socks or sticking to main paths when its recently rained, unless you really don't mind having 4-5 leeches crawling up your shoes at one time. I will say we were the only group who did the long trek and the only group who got leeches, so its not something everyone would have to struggle with depending on the path your guide chooses and the time of year. The nature was beautiful. Then back to the lodge for de-leeching and lunch. After a nice lunch, there's a rowboat out to a waterfall. This wasn't spectacular, but was pleasant. The jeep ride back through the forest was again really beautiful. I'm taking a star off for the leeches as that was really misable.

We did a Jeep 'safari'. On an asphalt road with some traffic... The guide did his best with boating, which is actually in some kind of pond, back and forth to a waterfall. All the time we heard the people in the restaurant talk and youth was hanging around with loud music on the bridge. Afterwards we made a long walk of 2.5 hours which was nice. But because if the wet season, was full of leech, we were not prepared for that mentally.
In the end we saw some eephants about 1 km away, a deer, mongoose crossing the road and a huge spider during the walk.
Everyone did his best, but it's the setup of this place that just didn't work for us.

An excellent place to enjoy the wild life at its wildest way. We enjoyed the stay in there jungle hut and log house. Stay was exceptional. Felt very secured in spite of being in mid of the forest. Food was like home cooked. Limited varieties, but good for a day. There boating and bathing in falls is a awesome experience. A special mention to all the forest staffs there, a big hats off to them. They really make your stay comfortable and go extra miles to make you comfortable. Great. Keep it up.

Even if we did not spot elephants, we spent an enjoyable family day in Gavi. During rainy season it s presumably more likely to see elephants. We took morning bus from Kumily (5.30 am from Kumily bus station, 66 rupees). The journey there was not exactly comfy, the road is curvy and kids were a bit unwell. But the road seems to be new, i m not sure if it would be much better with an off-road vehicle. In gavi we bought the package : breakfast, trekking, lunch, boating and waterfall, coffee. Our guide Kumar was super sweet and tailored the programme for us - we even had a nice little swim in the lake. Bus back to Kumily was leaving at 4.30 pm, so we had some time left to just hang out near the lake, when other visitors had already left. The bus journey back was also a bit adventurous, but very scenic. Driver stopped a few times to watch animals we met ( gaur, black monkeys).

We booked this trip through tourist information office
We were picked up at 5.15 am and traveled to the reserve, at arrival We had to pay more money to get in.
The jeep took us through the reserve, we saw two monkeys and
1 bison we got to the centre at 7.50 am where we had to check in.
We was told to go to the restaurant for breakfast there was no where to get any thing to drink only water from a water dispenser, we chose not to drink from this as we have seen these plastic containers being filled up from stand pipes so thought best thing to do is give it a miss.
Breakfast was not ready till 9.30am and to be honest it was terrible it was all Luke warm despite just being made. The tea and coffee came out which was very welcome.
After breakfast we were introduced to our guide he then took us on a rowing boat and he rowed around a lake for about half an hour. We never saw anything only a couple of birds.
He then took us to there so called museum very small it had a few skulls in there and an elephant skeleton.
He then took us on a hike, the views were nice but not amazing, I had to cut the hiking short only done 10 minutes as it was to steep for me.
My partner carried on with the guide.
I went back to the so called restaurant and waited for her return which was about half an hour.
So the time now was 11.50 am still nowhere to get a drink.
We waited for dinner which was at 12.30 most people had left the reserve by now. The dinner was barely Luke warm, so that was no dinner for us there was no drinks to be had only water, I asked if I could have tea or coffee and was told no that would be at tea time about 4.30.
I asked what do we do now and was told there is nothing to do only wait till tea time, so they wanted us to wait approximately 4 hours doing nothing for tea, all the guides had gone home and the kitchen staff had packed up and were waiting for their bus home. So even in the unlikely event that we waited there would have been no staff or guides.
There was just 4 couples left who were all complaining about the trip. We went to check in and asked to see someone regarding refund but all of a sudden no one understood English, luckily one of the couples was indian and they were just told the manager is in meeting somewhere else and couldn't be contacted and didn't know when he could be.
So we left and asked our driver to take us to the office where we had booked.
On arriving at office at about 2.50pm I complained about the trip and the jeep driver backed me up, the guy asked us to Wright a short statement about trip so he could submit.
He said he had no money in the office to give me. So he said he would sort it.
he took a photo of my credit card and all my details as we were leaving next day.
But surprise surprise I have heard nothing, I have tried emailing them several times but have not even had an acknowledgement.
This trip cost us about £78 and in mine and the other couples opinion was a complete waste of money.
I feel really sad that these people have to rip people off to get by.

Entry into Gavi starts at Angamoozhy check post, from where you have to enter before 11 am. The drive through the forest is an exhilarating experience that lasts for around 5-6 hours, all the way to the Vandiperiyar checkpost. There’s nothing in particular to do at Gavi unless you book for for packages provided by KFDC beforehand, and will consist of plantation visits, jungle safari, etc. If they had some activities that can be provided on-arrival, I would have given a five star rating (I really wish I could do the Jungle safari). There are also a number of views, plant and animal wildlife whilst on the way to Gavi. Overall a great experience!

We had the trip to Gavi during a very rainy day of Spetember. The roads are fine and you can take even a small car without fear of hitting the underbody. You need to get an online pass and show it at the entrance. Since there are no hotels inside, we had booked lunch from a person at the entrance checkpost (Thulasi - 9744875970). The lunch was good, packed in banana leaf as typical kerala lunch. Make sure you get food or else it will be too hectic. The route is good with lots of greenery and waterfalls and people would enjoy the long drive through the forest with almost no other traffic. My only gripe is that once you reach the destination there is nothing much to do unless you have a package which is very expensive (rs 1650 per person)and needs to be booked beforehand. So you reach Gavi and other than a small dam, which is infact much less majestic than the Kakki dam on the way, you feel like the whole drive was for nothing but the drive itself. So Gavi is the long journey through the forest and not the end destination.

We started our journey to Gavi from Angamoozhy forest checkpost . Staff are very friendly and supportive. They even arranged home cooked meals. Shops / restaurants not available once you enter the forest area due to Covid. There are multiple hydroelectric power stations , dams on the way. Few of us were very lucky to spot a leopard and others saw monitor lizards , wild buffaloes on the route. Gavi is an experience for true nature lovers .

Had big expectations as have been seeing a lot of photos and especially after Gavi became famous after it got featured in a malayalam movie. I think the Rainy season would be much better. Summer has started so it was very dusty and dry all around. The road were also bad intermittently. Had a lot of anticipation and had booked my entrance ticket online many days before. But we did not see even one animal. Will like to go back when it rains. But if they do not repair the roads it will not be easy even in the rains.

Why traveling with bike through Gavi is prohibited?
If I have a dream about riding a bike through Gavi for that what all kinds of official things that I should do?
For emergency purpose "the officials are permitting the government staffs to drive through Gavi with bike" if there is a rule then everyone should obey?

After the last flood, not sure about the terrain. better call and ask the officials

Hi, planning a trip to Munnar and thekkadi. However this Gavi seems very attractive. Can someone guide reaching Gavi from Munnar and things to try there, accommodation, food etc? We are w adults and two kids. One aged 9.5 while other is aged 2.5. hope it's safe to travel with these kids. Please advise on that as well.
On the other hand, if I could get similar details about Pathanamittha would also be great.
Thanks in advance

1. You need to book a jeep from Thekkadi. Other vehicles are not allowed. I took a jeep from Periyar Cabs. The jeep will leave your hotel at 5.30 am or 6 am. Since they allow entry to only 50 people on a day, you can book it in advance from the local Forest office or you can get the entry ticket at the Forest outpost near Gavi.
2. They have two options - day tour or overnight stay. For day tour they provide breakfast and lunch, which are included in the overall package.
3. It is safe to take kids. The trekking route will be shorter if you are travelling with kids. You can take a towel and change clothes as there is a waterfall there and kids will enjoy it.

How to reach gavi from chennai by train .What are all the train routes available which is the shortest. Where to stay in gavi and also plan for thekkady 1 day. please advise on this.
Γράφτηκε στις 22 Ιανουαρίου 2019
I am so sorry that I saw your message only now. In case, your trip plan is still on, you have two options from Chennai. One take a bus to Kumily - TNSTC has semi-sleeper service and private operators sleeper service. It is an overnight journey. In Kumily resorts are located all over. But sometimes, the private bus operators will drop you Gudalur citing road conditions and they don't inform you until you have boarded the bus. That would upset your plans as you need to find a vehicle to reach Kumily.
The second option is to take a train to Madurai and hire a taxi from there. You will reach Kumily in about two hours early in the morning. This way you can also have a short tour of Madurai on your return trip.
For Gavi, it is better to book in advance a day earlier from the local Kerala Forest office in Ambady, about a kilometre or two from Kumily bus stand as they allow only 50 people inside every day. Best to hire a private jeep (Rs 2,500) directly as hotels charge Rs 3,000 for the jeep, to go to Gavi.
Cheers

Do we need to pre book for the Jeep safari online? If yes can someone please let me know the booking site ?
Are children allowed? Is there any age limit?
Γράφτηκε στις 11 Δεκεμβρίου 2018
Check the Kerala Forest Department website for online booking. Or it can be directly done at their office in Ambady, close to Kumily. Children are allowed. Since a trekking is part of the programme, they would take you on a shorter trek route if you go with a child. Individual guides are assigned per family and they are very helpful. They even carry your child if they are unable to walk.
