Hi,
I am arriving from Singapore on SilkAir, which is supposed to reach TVM by 9:30pm. I have a train to catch at 11pm.
Can anyone let me know the approximate distance from the airport to the Rly Station and how long it usually takes for a taxi to get there ?
Thanks
Hi
It may be take 30min.you can catch 11pm train provided if your flight come timely.But still i would suggest the time difference is less,you better prepare for any delay for catching train.

On arrival at the airport in Trivandrum, we were greeted by a Tour East representative, and given a flower garland each. I love these garlands, which seem to be a traditional greeting in many parts of the world. They emitted a beautiful aroma - it is such a shame that you can't retain smells for the future like you can with sight and sound!
This is 50 Km from Trivandrum and is on the way to Ponmudir. The place gets its name from the River Kallar. Kallu means 'stone' and Aru means 'river in Malayalam . This is an ideal place for people with an interest in trekking, angling and bird watching.
The main attractions are the nearby Golden Valley, and the Meenmutti waterfalls. One can bathe in the crystal clear waters.
Those who are intersted in trekking and bird watching can take narrow track, starting from the right from the side of the Kallar Bridge. Thisw will take to waterfall, known as Meenmutty. The waterfall is situated 3-4 kms from the main road. One can see bird life, and many species of butterflies enroute. During the rainy season leeches are found in plenty here.
Kallar Forest Protection Group at Kallar gives help inr trekking guidance and also for hiring guides. .
A restaurant, toilet, changing rooms, shops to sell forest produce, STD and ISD booths and a car parking area are there at the facilitation centre.
Getting there:
Nearest airport: Thiruvananthapuram International Airport, about 67 kms.
Nearest railway station: Thiruvananthapuram Central, about 61 km
Just 50 m from the Vazhutacaud Junction is this small restaurant Casa Bianca. This restaurant is a house converted into a cosy little place to eat. I would say this is one of the best places in the town to dine. The menu is mouth watering ..lots of Pizza's, Lasagne... etc The ambience is simple but cosy...the flowers, lights etc adds a touch of elegance too....
Overall one of the best joints...
this place is on the border between kerala and Tamil nadu. Sree Narayana Guru used to meditate here so this is a holy place for his devotees . There is a small ashram in the foothills dedicated to him. From the ashram is a one hour trek to the top. On the way there are a few very small cave temples.
About 5 kms from the Neyyar Dam you can visit the Deer Park, Crocodile Farm, Lion Safari and the Neyyar Trek into the Wildlife Sanctuary.
Crocodile Farm - The crocodile farm is about 2 Km from the Dam. The park has crocodiles in cages. Most of them are young ones apart from 2 or 3. The entry fee is 5/- per person.
Boating : The Neyyar reservior offers speed boating facilities. These boats can be hired for 30/- a person. The beautiful reservior and the wild life sanctuary makes it a must do if you visit the place.
Lion Safari: From the wild life information center the bus takes you to the lion safari, where you can watch the lions. It takes about 40 mins for this trip and the entire cost is 30/- per person. But you need 23 people to hire the bus on a sharing basis.
Elephant Safari : You can also go for a Elephant ride if interested. This is about 10 Kms into the wild life sanctuary.
All the bookings should be done at the Wild Life Information Center in Neyyar
