Plan Your Jeep Safari in Thekkady & Kumily

A Thekkady jeep safari can bring a different pace to your sightseeing plans. Rather than fitting every visitor into the same outing, our team helps you discuss the route, type of experience and practical arrangements before you book.

Palliyadiyil Tourism has been welcoming travellers since 1999. From our base in Chelimada, Kumily, we assist families, couples and groups with safari enquiries alongside Thekkady tour packages, local activities and travel services.

Tell us whether you prefer scenic stops, a more adventurous drive or an outing that leaves time for other activities. We will help you check available options and understand what your chosen safari involves.
