A refreshing experience of Boat Safari at Periyar National Park

Rating:

It was early morning that we had to start off for our boat safari at Periyar National Park. We boarded the Periyar Tiger Reserve bus from the stand. We were part of a huge queue at 6.30am!

I was breathing fresh air. It was lush green all over. Soon we stopped at the boat safari boarding point.

Beauty of Periyar National Park

There was lush greenery all around.

Beautiful view

Although the authorities from Xandari Cardamom County had done reservations for us a day prior to our visit, but we had to be present for allocation of our seats. The person from Xandari Cardamom County ensured that we get to sit in the boat. Only then he left. It was so nice and courteous of him!

Mesmerizing

There was a big waiting area with good seating system. Boat boarding area was beautiful!
