Driving to the waterfall. Anwarth shared lots of interesting facts about Keralan life. We stopped to see the falls and take photos at different spots. Then Anwarth helped me across the rocks to see the waterfall from a perfect viewpoint. Absolutely stunning. Thank you for a lovely day

Good trip if a bit longer travel than advertised. Nice location and experience and if a spare day, well worthwhile

Had an amazing day trip from Kochi to Athirapally and Vazachal Waterfalls! They were able to accommodate us on a short notice and everything went super smoothly. Our driver was kind, friendly and made the ride really comfortable. The drive was beautiful, the waterfalls were stunning, and the boat ride through the Periyar River mangroves was such a nice bonus. Totally worth it!

Nice day trip and everything went well. Anandhu is an excellent driver and good communicator. I have had enough time to explore the waterfalls and the return was also very peaceful. Overall, great experience.

It was a peaceful drive up to the falls, and we were given plenty of time to explore the area! We were hoping for a bit more of a guided tour; however, our driver was very safe and friendly!

We took a day trip from Kochi to Athirappilly, and it was such a good trip. The drive itself felt peaceful. The waterfalls were stunning. It was a short trek which was totally worth it. Spotted a few birds and monkeys along the way too! It was a bit crowded near the main viewpoint, but we found a quiet spot by the river to just sit and relax.
