Your confirmed programme
For a Max Adventures Shared Day Tour, the forest-permit programme is arranged when at least 9 guest slots are confirmed. Reaching 9 confirmed guests does not guarantee forest permission; it only establishes minimum participation for Max Adventures to arrange or apply for the programme. Permission remains subject to availability for the selected date, Forest Department instructions, authority approval, tide, weather, safety and operating conditions.
When forest permission is confirmed, the applicable forest-permit arrangements and Forest Guide are included with that programme. A Forest Guide is not automatically included on an alternative non-permit route. An alternative river-and-mangrove programme may operate when permission is unavailable.
Max Adventures operates on Tuesdays. The permitted forest and sightseeing programme may differ from other days and is confirmed before booking according to current Forest Department instructions, tide, weather and operating conditions. The booking page identifies the Tuesday Alternative Route Programme; a returned fare or available place does not confirm the usual forest programme.
No named watchtower or wildlife sighting is guaranteed. Routes may change with tide, weather, authority instructions and operating conditions.
Your next adventure starts with a date.
Review availability, your group’s price and the confirmed inclusions. A booking request becomes a reservation only after the required process and express confirmation by Max Adventures.
