4 Waterfall Tours in India to Build a Day Around

1.Wild Elephant Anakulam & Waterfalls Tour(munnar valley Trekking)

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 98 reviews · from $70Our pick

You’ll ride a private jeep with a local driver-guide from Munnar to Anakulam, stopping at Letchmi tea gardens, waterfalls, a hanging bridge, Tiger Cave, and a river crossing. The main prize is a possible group of wild elephants, though sightings can require a patient wait of up to three hours.

“We went to 1 waterfall rather than the 2 in the itinerary. We weren’t taken to multiple places on the itinerary - we drove past them but I don’t count that as visiting them. Our driver was friendly but barely spoke English and wasn’t a guide - zero insight into anything. 90% of this tour is being driven around. Very underwhelming all round sadly.”

3.Goa: Dudhsagar Waterfall, Jeep Safari and Spice Plantation

★★★★★★★★★★3.4 · 43 reviews · 10 hours · from $32Best value

Join Joy Goa for a 10-hour shared trip from Baga, Calangute, Arpora, Candolim, Panaji, or Ponda. Ride an AC bus and forest jeep to Dudhsagar Falls, swim with a life jacket, eat an unlimited veg or non-veg lunch, and visit Nandanvan Spice Farm.

“Total confusion over when & where to be picked up. Old bus finally arrived late and was full of appeared to be locals. We were a party of four seniors and driver who spoke no English tried unsuccessfully to rearrange passengers to make room. Faced with a 5-6 total journey time we decided it was too unsafe and certainly very uncomfortable and walked away. Trying now to get our money back. February 2026.”
