Read moreGreat experience!!! This ride is in Periyar lake. They operate 5 times a day 7:30 AM, 9:30 AM, 11:15 AM, 1:45 PM and 3:30 PM duration is for 1.30 HRS. As per local suggestions they are recommending us to take a 7.30 AM or 3.30 PM ride to see more animals.

For me It's just a one time experience. There is also a small shop to buy jackets and other local model attractions. But the...
