Unmatched comfort, hospitality and the punctuality. The bus was reached before 10 minutes from the actual time of departure at Perungulathur. Exactly on time at last stop. The driver and the staff were very friendly. When ever any passenger asked for nature call they don't lose their temper and with a smiling face they pull over.

I booked the bus from Chennai to Ernakulam. When it reached Coimbatore, they moved us to a new bus. Some people had to stand till the bus reached Palakkad.

Timing is a bit concern. Happened once with more than 1 hour delay in reaching the bus, and one time 5-10 mins delay which is common among all. Both of the time, arrival time was so late... That was a bit concern...

- Kodanad
Fertile soil, clean air, abundant vegetation and numerous water bodies make Kerala a heavenly abode for wildlife. And to catch a glimpse of these innocent living creatures, people travel from far off lands to Kerala. The task of training, feeding and taking care of these animals by locals is a delightful act to watch. The rural riverside village of Kodanad in Ernakulam district of Kerala is the host to one such centre where elephants are trained and taken care of by expert hands.
