Sabarimala packages
Five ready-made transport plans — and a sixth that is whatever you need it to be. Every package is quoted in writing, with waiting hours, halts and allowances agreed before you travel.

We do not publish Sabarimala fares because they change with your starting point, vehicle, waiting hours and the season. Send your details and you will have an itemised written quotation — base fare, tolls, parking, night allowance and waiting rate — usually within fifteen minutes.

Travel information
Good to know
The packages cover transportation — vehicle, fuel, chauffeur, tolls, parking and allowances. Accommodation and meals are not included by default, but we are glad to arrange rooms at Pathanamthitta, Chengannur or Erumeli and add them to your quotation.
Sabarimala fares vary considerably with the starting point, the vehicle category, the number of waiting hours and the season. Rather than publish a figure that will not apply to your trip, we send an itemised written quotation once we know your details — usually within fifteen minutes.
Yes. Darshan queues are unpredictable and we plan for it. Extended waiting is charged at an agreed hourly rate stated in your quotation before you travel, so there is never a surprise at the end.
For one and two-day packages, yes. On itineraries beyond 400 km of continuous driving we assign a relief chauffeur, because a tired driver on a ghat road at 3 a.m. is a risk we do not take.
Regularly. We pick up from Madurai, Tenkasi, Coimbatore, Bengaluru and Mangaluru, as well as from all four Kerala airports and the major railway stations at Ernakulam, Kottayam and Chengannur.
Ready to plan
Starting point, group size, preferred darshan day and whether you want the vehicle to wait. That is all we need to price your pilgrimage accurately.
