Taxi fare to Thol Bird Sanctuary
The ride is about 35 km from central Ahmedabad, roughly about 45 minutes in normal traffic. You pay by the kilometre on a single visit, or ask for a half-day rate if you are combining it with other stops.

| Sedan (Swift Dzire) | 4 | ₹12/km |
| Ertiga | 6 | ₹13/km |
| Innova | 7 | ₹18/km |

Local sightseeing trips are billed per kilometre, the same rate as any other ride. For a multi-stop half-day or full-day plan, call us with your list of stops and we quote a fixed package. Tolls and parking are extra at actual cost. No advance payment is needed: pay by cash or UPI after the trip.
About Thol Bird Sanctuary
Thol is a Ramsar-listed wetland, smaller and closer to the city than Nal Sarovar, and home to flamingos, pelicans and a range of other migratory birds, especially between November and February.
What to see and plan for
A visit of 1.5 to 2 hours covers a walk around the lake and the main birdwatching points.
Visiting tips
Early morning gives the best chance of spotting birds. Carry binoculars if you have them, since birds are often at a distance.
Planning your booking
Tell us your pickup address in Ahmedabad, the date and approximate time you want to leave, and how many passengers are travelling. We confirm the car, driver and fare over call or WhatsApp before you book. If you want the driver to wait through your visit and bring you back, say so up front so we can quote a return-inclusive fare instead of two separate one-way rides.
For a one-way drop where you plan to return by other means, mention that too — the fare and car allocation work differently for a wait-and-return trip versus a simple drop.
Who visits Thol Bird Sanctuary
Birdwatchers and photographers are the main visitors, along with families looking for an easy nature outing closer to the city than Nal Sarovar.
Combine it with another stop
Thol Bird Sanctuary pairs well with Nal Sarovar Bird Sanctuary on the same half-day trip — tell us both stops when you book and we plan the route and waiting time.
Comfort and safety on the ride
Every car in our fleet carries GPS tracking, and drivers carry at least 5 years of driving experience. Cars are checked before each booking, and if your plan changes after you have booked — a later start time, an extra stop, or a different drop point — just call or WhatsApp the number you booked with and we adjust the trip.
