Train and flight arrivals before a Sasan Gir cab
How to connect Veraval, Rajkot or Ahmedabad into a Madhuli taxi toward Sasan Gir. Send the train or flight number.
Arrivals are where Somnath trips go wrong: a train at Veraval, a flight at Hirasar, and a plan that assumed both were on time. The useful booking is a driver who knows the safari gate, not a guess at Sasan village.
If you are starting in Somnath and then going on to Sasan Gir, land or detrain with slack. about 1 hour is the drive once you are actually in the car, not once the plane touches the runway.
Gir is close enough for a morning safari and an evening aarti back in Somnath. The forest permit is separate from the cab. Put the PNR, flight number, or train name in the note. The WhatsApp message keeps it with the rest of the enquiry.
Night arrivals are normal. The desk is open all night. Say if the first stop is the hotel or straight on toward Sasan Gir.
