Self drive car & bike rental in Thovalai
Thovalai sits twelve kilometres from Nagercoil on the road to Madurai, which makes it the easiest town in the district to leave from if you are heading north. A self drive car here is usually wanted for exactly that: a run up to Tirunelveli or Madurai without first driving into Nagercoil to collect it. We deliver to the door.
Getting a vehicle in Thovalai
Thovalai is about 12 km from our base in Nagercoil, and we deliver rather than asking you to come and collect. Give us the address and a time; the vehicle arrives with its papers, a full tank noted down and the KM reading written in front of you.
The flower market is the thing Thovalai is known for, and it works before dawn -- by the time most people are up, the day's trading is finishing. If you want to see it, that means leaving early, and a car you already have the keys to is worth more than one you have to collect. Past the town the road runs through the Aralvaimozhi gap, where the wind turbines start and the landscape changes from coconut to open scrub in about ten minutes. It is the windiest stretch of road in the district and a light car can feel it, which is worth knowing before anyone puts a roof box on.
