Great day trip to Athirapilly Falls - We enjoyed a great day out travelling to Athirapilly Falls with Sooraj from Sree Tours. The tour was well priced and all the arrangements went smoothly. Sooraj shared his knowledge and experience and looked after us well. The Falls were spectacular.

Exceptional! - Everything was to please us: punctual driver at departure and very pleasant, comfortable car. The beauty of the landscape was there. In Athirappily, to see the waterfalls better, you have to go down and it's very physical! But it's worth it. Possibility to swim. Provide a hat for sunburn.

A terrific daytrip to Athirapally falls - We were looking to make a daytrip to Athirapally Waterfalls during the October monsoon, and I'm so glad we contacted Sree's tours and found our guide Vinod! Vinod did a great job driving us safely from Kochi and back. I was so glad to have his expert driving in the city traffic and especially in the heavy pouring rain. I was glad to have an English-speaking driver, and I was glad he pointed out some of the scenery along the way to the falls, including the rubber trees, cashew trees, and oil palms. We opted to skip seeing a dam and hanging bridge along the way at first because it was raining too hard, but fortunately the rain had abated once we reached Athirapally Falls. Since our phones didn't work, we coordinated a time to meet up with Vinod after walking in and when the time came, he was right there waiting for us. After seeing more of the falls and the hanging bridge, he also drove us to a delicious weekend-only restaurant for lunch served on a banana leaf. One recommendation: if you're going to make the long trek down to see Athirapally falls from below, I'd allow for at least a 2 hour stop at Athirapally falls. I highly recommend contacting Sree's Tours if you're looking for a trip to Athirapally falls or other adventures near Kochi.
