With a vehicle, you will be able to visit more sections of the park, but without one, you can still take nice hikes through the grasslands and even if you do have a vehicle, getting out and walking around is recommended. Entry fees is Rs. 20/- for a vehicle with up to 6 Indians or $20 for a vehicle carrying Foreigners. Foreign visitors without a vehicle are charged $5, and photography is $5. All these fees are taken from the general park listings and change frequently, so please call the park beforehand and verify the same (Call Bahumali Bhavan, in Bhavnagar at Tel: 0278 242 6425 between 10:30am and 6pm or call the Park directly at Tel: 0278 288 0342). Guides can be hired at the park (call ahead to reserve one), or you may hire a guide from elsewhere (many private tourism companies are available in Ahmedabad or Bhavnagar), but note that a private guide has to pay the entry fee for himself too.
The park is closed for the monsoon from June to October, and the best time to visit is winter, from December to March, when you can catch the bird population at its greatest, and avoid the stifling summer heat.
