One of the best trips we have had ever!!! Pollachi Jeep Tourism, managed by Mr Selvaji is value for money - for those crazy nature lovers. You get to enjoy the nature in its entirety as you travel in the open jeep and free from the hassle of driving yourself. A well mannered tour adviser, Mr Selvaji ensures that we get priority treatment on Elephant ride etc at Parambikulam. We would love to do another trip soon, as I and everyone in my family enjoyed the trip thoroughly.

Self and friend visited Pollachi with no prior arrangement. We came to know abt Selva and PJT frm the resort where we stayed. To visit places in and around Pollachi, we opted for open Jeep ride for a day. The best day out of our three days trip, I should say. Really loved it. It was a very different experience travelling in open jeep. It gives a feel of ourselves travelling with nature as the cool gust of air sweeps along the face. With an intent to make the tourists savor the heritage of Pollachi and make their travel memorable, the unique initiative by Selva is well appreciated. He made our trip unforgettable one. Wished that we had arranged the entire trip with Selva in open Jeep. Due to some reason, we had to look for an alternate stay arrangement which he helped doing it immediately and ensured that we reached each place safely though he was not with us for the rest two days. We met him as a guide at the resort on the first day and he finally came to the bus stand as a friend to wave bye on our last day in Pollachi. Highly recommended to any kind of traveller. Solo, couples, girls, kids, gang of friends, senior citizens from any country!! Do call Selva if you are visiting Pollachi. He and his Jeep will take care of the rest and make your trip amazing!!

We had booked for half day ride in Jeep with no expectations for the day but it turned out to be one of the most beautiful rides we had ever taken. Pollachi and valparai are best explored with locals. Mr.ponnusamy was very friendly, polite and content driver who showed all over pollachi and estates above. No words can explain the experience. Just book with them and sit back enjoy!

We went to Pollachi for a holiday. We spent our good time there but our unforgettable thing is we spent our day in open Jeep. It was amazing experience. We like natural scenery of Valparai hill road from the open Jeep. good job highly recommend. Want to go ride again.

Very good experience. Nice thought from Selva (owner of PJT) to have an open jeep concept for this trip in to the wildlife, which has made our trip better with a different experience. Nice to move person, very friendly and moreover good at spotting out animals in the wild, which made our journey more valuable for money. Definitely recommend this jeep drive with Selva for those who tour Pollachi

This was our first open Jeep experience and we loved it. Mr.Selva took us to all the places safe and secure and we didn't need to worry about anything. Open top ride at the end was icing on a cake.

Hi Friends The parabikulam jungle safari is exciting The open jeep Safari is much more enjoyable, because it's scenic beauty is very captivating. Now when Mr Selva's Pollachi Jeep tour u take it's more than satisfying, safety wise and traveling wise for family . Mr Selva pitches in right location..we saw a rare site of jungle Squirrels only because of the open jeep Safari.

These guys are the ultimate scam artists, I was booked for the morning trip to perambikulam but the driver ponnusamy suggested we go in the afternoon ,but when we go there the safari was closed .The guide we suggested that we take the town bus and the route will be scenic ,the bus drive was a disaster with a packed bus. On drop the driver demanded full payment even though we didn’t see anything. Just a horrible experience !

Good option for your enjoyment with jeep drive. Really you can get a different experience than your closed car.

Excellent trip.i got a awesome experience. Thanks selva ji.

Had a wonderful road trip experience , thanks to PJT and selvaji. He was a wonderful guide and shared a lot of interesting trivia throughout our journey. We saw some not much visited view points which had breathtaking views. He was extremely considerate and helpful throughout our stay. Would definitely recommend him and PJT to anyone ( of any age group) looking to a fun filled adventurous trip in and around Pollachi. A MUST TRY when one is in Pollachi. Way to go !! :)

Thanks to Selvaji for making my trip to pollachi awesome. If anyone wants to go for adventure trip to pollachi, I recommend Pollachi Jeep Tourism.

It was a great experience.Selva is extremely pleasant and gives a good overview of all the places to visit.All of us in the family 3 years to 60 years enjoyed the drive in the jeep.Selva takes us via some picturesque routes which makes the trip very memorable. All in all a trip to cherish.

Fantastic experience with a courtesy reception and trip undertaken by selva .. keep it consistently

We have been wanting to visit pollachi for a very long time. The idea of an open jeep intrigued us and we planned a trip last month. It's been one of our best experiences. Travelling, via thick forests and hills with the best views, in an open jeep is a match made in heaven. Selva was extremely thoughtful and keen to make this memorable for us. He called up the elephant safari at topslip in advance about our arrival, asked permission for a short safari at parambikulam (even though the tickets were sold out for the day) , took us into the 'tunnel' that runs through the Naiyyar dam because my son was very enthusiastic, took us to a friend's farm because the kids would enjoy it. He is on excellent terms with people in the surrounding areas and very polite and friendly. This made our trip really relaxed and fun. A definite must do if visiting pollachi. I am sure we will visit again.

Last week our family had been to pollachi and we had booked our outing with selva..it was a lovely and wonderful experience for us..my daughter just loved going in the jeep...must say Mr.Selva has extensive knowledge about the place and the tiger reserve..very friendly towards children my daughter loved his company..will surely go back to see tigers as this time we were not lucky enough to see the majestic beast...thanks again for the extraordinary experience Mr.Selva 🙏🙏🖒🖒🖒

I was thinking it would be a regular cab experience initially when I booked through PJT, but what I got was an interesting, mind-blowing,friendly, unique and never seen before experience from Mr.Selva. First of all,am thankful to Mr.Selva since he is not doing business for the sake of tourists guide/driver,he has put-forth lot of effort in terms of arranging a nice room for stay, guided us to plan for our 3 days entire holiday trip, guided us properly for local eat-outs, showed all the places as per the itinerary with lots and lots of information in it and lastly he has dropped us in the bus station thereby he has created an unique customer experience and we were very much satisfied and happier with the trip. I.recommend One should try exploring places in Pollachi, Valparai,Topslip through PJT as this experience would be awesome. Best wishes to Mr.Selva for his great dedication in his work and we will surely meet in future for another adventure camping trip with PJT.

Amazing service. V. Prompt in reaching &Addressing their customers. Travelling in jeep is an awesome experience. Jeep was v. Comfortable. Driver is v. Friendly, knowledgeable.. and always wanted to add a personal touch in his services. We really had a most memorable, relaxingholiday with pollachi jeep tourism. ❤️

One of the professional and Best tourism services. Mr. Selva suggested very good package as per our time. Mr. Mani is best and "Jhakkas" driver with high level "F1" driving school. These guys are very polite and respectful. We loved it. Full Paisa vasul...

Had an amazing trip to Valparai with Pollachi Jeep Tourism. Their professionalism, timeliness and knowledge of the places to visit, recommendation for food, local culture was really impressive. Special mention of how they dynamically modified their itinerary when rain made it impossible to visit Thirumurthi falls. They replaced it with a day trip to Top Slip that turned out to be the real highlight of the trip. The kids loved the open Jeep experience and did not want the trip to end. Many thanks to Ponnuswamy and Selva for the memorable trip.

We four, all ladies team booked a jeep for 3 days from pollachi jeep tourism... to cover valparai, Athirapalli, parambikulam and Topslip... had an amazing time. The jeep was awesome and special mention to the driver/co-ordinator Mr. Maniraj.. 👏👏 He was very co-operative and helped us in all ways possible to make our trip memorable.. And a big thanks to Mr. Selva... your act of giving a short send off visit when we were being dropped back at the pollachi bus stop was a lovely gesture.. 👍😊 Thank you, pollachi jeep tourism, for being a part of the beautiful memories that we have created... that we can look back fondly over the years to come... 😊💖

Thank you Selva for the well organised trip. We had 13 ladies with an age range of 60 to 70 yrs Your arrangement in parambikulam and Valparai is very nice with good and neat arrangements with excellent soft veg food. Ponnusamy our co ordinator arranged by you is very nice and accomodative person Thank you selva for the memorable arrangements

Open jeep travel in amidst beauty of nature & adventurous forest trip, thanks to Selva innovative thinking & delighting every tourist..

thank u for the wonder full trip

Our two day tour of the Tiger Reserve was amazing. Our experienced and friendly driver took us through the beautiful forests in a brand new jeep and we saw many animals including two types of deer, three types of monkey, wild boar, peacocks, hornbill, sea eagle, dragon lizard. Unfortunately no tigers, but the stunning scenery made up for it! Visited the reservoir and I enjoyed our paddle on the bamboo raft. Our driver gave us a delicious Pollachi coconut to drink and, took us to his old school where we met the lovely head mistress, the teacher and all the children. Day two, we visited Monkey Falls and drove up the steep mountain around hairpin bends with gave us panoramic views of the dam and reservoir and dense forest. We also drove through "Waterfalls" tea estate's 2000 acre plantation to the old colonial bungalows (which you can rent). We highly recommend using this company. Selva gave us a friendly and very professional service. Thank you 🙏

Ours was a 3 day trip.. jan 2020.. pollachi n valparai. The one-of-its-kind open jeep was joyful and very comfortable... Our kids enjoyed the jeep thoroughly! Both Selva and Ponnusamy were awesome guides and they knew local offices and people well. Extremely flexible, Very friendly and customer centric. While they suggest interesting things to do, they accommodate your liking too! Rekla ride, fresh farm tender coconut, off roading, river bath, local food options, etc were additions to what we had planned! Highly recommend pollachi jeep tourism in case you want to visit pollachi, parambikulam or valparai!!! No doubts that Selva's attitude towards customer satisfaction and passion towards tourism will take his business to greater heights!!

Offbeat and unique trip to unknown, untouched places. It is totally different from hiring a taxi tour.

It's a fantastic ride in Open Jeep. We fully enjoyed the nature at best. It's really very nice concept of tourism.

Passionated to provide us good hospitality; enjoyed lot by their meticulously planned and executed trip. Awesome trip.

went on a trip for 3 days. This is my first open jeep experience. It was little different to go around in the green hills and for a forest ride. Selva is really friendly and he made the trip nicer. Forest Ride to Athirapalli was awesome and different

Tamilnadu post Pollachi

One should definitely plan for a jeep trip to top slip and Valparai

Nice and more happy to visit

We visited topslip parambikulam and thalanar. Check with them before booking stay. Open Jeep trip to thalanar was great.

Jeep is awesomee...Definitely we all have a dream to ride with this one...Above all thanks to selva bro to make the trip happy and enjoyable.we always prefer with you(selva) while trip on this side.

We went on a 2 day trip in July 2019. What an amazing experience. Open jeep ride amist the beautiful nature and forest was excellent. Mr. Selva, the owner of PJT is a very friendly person. We felt completely safe and secure throughout the journey. Thank you Selva.

Open jeep safari s vry different experiance. Childs r vry enjoy ts travelling. Selva s vry friendly person.

It was an awesome experience for us(2 couples with one kid).first of all i must say thanku to selva for guiding us throughout our vacation...enjoyed each and every natural beauty secneries from jeep...my daughter enjoyed alot in open jeep...though we only hired the open jeep from pollachi to attakatti view point,still he had taken care of food,stay, valuable information to parambikulam forest reserve...before we reach parambikulam he already told to some people to receive us...it made us easy to get in to that formalities...he is so kind and friendly...liked his company..hardly we can get such kind of persons nowadays...surely for next visit will take full package from you Selva... Thanku selva for giving your jeep for a while to drive..it was thrilling experience to me...liked it...

we family of 5 atlast finalised our short trip for 3 days to parambikulam and valaparai after getting contact of Mr.Selvam of PJT. He gave us the options of stay and vehicle and as the pervari island stay was available, he booked it for us. Right from pick up from coimbatore and drop back he took care of us. The island stay was awesome. The open Jeep safari was the highlight of the entire trip. My son daughter and father all enjoyed the ride. At island, there are people to cook wonderful food for us. Valaparai sholaiyar dam ride in the evening was superb. We were taken to the best of hotels in the entire trip. Overall it was a very nice experience and company of Selvam was like a trip with a friend.

It was really a brilliant and adventurous trip. Though it was a 12 hours trip around Top Slip, valparai & Parambikulam, we never felt tired as the open jeep tour kept us engaged and thrilled throughout the Forest Journey. Selva who owns and runs this Jeep was an excellent caretaker, guide and customer friendly, most importantly he very well knows the locations and Forest officials which helped us to take Selva's private jeep into the restricted areas. There is no better person than the Forest Police Guide ( M.Murugan) who joined us in parambikulam forest range, knows the wild terrain inside out. Unfortunately we couldn't sight much of wildlife but we never felt disappointed as both Selva and Murugan was very engaging throughout the trip. Overall the trip was very entertaining and my family thoroughly enjoyed every moment. I would recommend that the best time to take Parambikulam forest tour is during April/May. Cheers Anand

Long story short - If you want to have once in lifetime rewarding hours in Pollachi then you should really go for this. Here is the long story - I was returning from Kerala after attending my friend's wedding. My plan was to stop and roam in Pollachi for a day en-route to Chennai. The previous day I had no idea about my plans in Pollachi. I took the number from TripAdvisor and made a call, on the other side a person introduced himself as Selva and he sounded kind and approachable. I told him I am looking for a one day trip to Topslip. He pointed the link in his website for the tariff details and asked me to check and get back to him. This to me is an approach I would welcome. Instead of bargaining, having a tough time, he has the details and the price put up in his website. You can choose from the available options and it really helps to narrow down your initial decision. I told him I will be opting for Top-slip-Parambikulam trip. He enquired me about the stay and i said I have no idea and he suggested me a budget hotel near the Pollachi bus stop. The hotel was decent and reasonably priced. The next day we decided to start at 7.30 AM. I got down from the hotel and was surprised to see the Jeep (Gypsy). Selva is the person who is owner cum driver for it. I didn't expect that I will see him in shorts and coolers. I got into the Gypsy and within 5 minutes i started sharing a good conversation with Selva. He was explaining about Pollachi, its geography, its major exports and why he prefers Parambikulam instead of Topslip (Parambikulam is the last hill stop and you will be passing through Topslip). Topslip is poorly maintained by TN Govt whereas the Kerala government maintains Parambikulam. They maintain it so well and the place greets you with their signature warmth. Don't get carried away by the heading "Parambikulam Tiger Reserve". If you have luck you can spot a tiger but it is rare as the tigers will be mostly inside forest. The trip is rewarding if you want to enjoy the forest air, vista views, the light and shadow play by the sunlight instead of having an ambition just to spot a tiger. I could spot many birds on the way sitting inside the jeep which includes - Green Bee Eater, Peahen, Peacock, Lesser Golden Flameback Woodpecker, Racket Tailed Drongo, Indian Golden Oriole, Rufous Treepie. I was lucky to get a glimpse of all these birds in their natural habitat and i even spotted a Cobra snake near the dam area. All through the trip till evening, Selva was very kind and gentle. We discussed a lot of stuffs and he was like a best-friend figure within short span of time knowing him.The Kerala govt. runs a restaurant in Parambikulam and you get some first class breakfast and lunch cooked by the local people. Selva can help you choose how to get the best out of the day. He dropped me back at 4 PM and I had some extra areas covered and took some long time in each spot to experience things a little longer and he charged me reasonable. Normally if you deviate from the original plan you would be charged heavy but Selva was genuine. He understands what kind of person you are and based on your expectation he tries to make the best out of the trip. I would give my highest recommendation in choosing his Jeep trip if you wanted a 1or 2 day sight-seeing in Pollachi . Bonus : 1. Sitting inside all open Gypsy you could feel the fresh air splicing your body 2. The Gypsy is in good condition, I am 6.1 ft tall and I had no troubles. 3. Selva can suggest you some reasonable budget hotels so that you don't waste money for the stay 4. He has a earned a good name for himself in this business and almost all the Kerala govt.forest officials know him. PS : This review was written after a month of my trip and I still cherish the day I spent in the forest with Selva. Thanks, Praveen
