Are you exhausted of the traffic, the pollution, and the city life in Tughlakabad?
It’s time to trade the honking cars for the sound of the Wild. It’s time to leave behind the concrete of Tughlakabad for the green Sal trees of Uttarakhand.

FAQs for Tughlakabad Visitors

A: The rule is 6 adults + 2 children (below 12 years) per Gypsy. If you are 8 adults, you will strictly need to book two Gypsies.
Q: How far in advance should we reserve?
