    Beautiful and powerful (stronger than expected but it's a big drop!). Worth paying a guide and make sure you bring swimming costume, towel and beach shoes as stones are rough and slippery. Worth seeing.

    There are 3 entry points for various Git git falls. Later I was told that it was best to go to the second one. I went to the "official" one (3rd). This also means that the price was reasonable (15k) versus the haggling at the other stops. Good foot path to the waterfalls, free/easy parking. Someone wanted to guide me but I'm not sure what value they would add as it is essentially a long walkway lined with shops that terminates in the falls.

    When I went it wasn't very busy which was nice. Cool, refreshing water that was photogenic. I'm not sure I would make a special trip to see these but if you're enroute it's worth a stop.

    +very beautiful waterfalls
    -guides start cheating from the beginning, they don't let us enter before we paid 500.000 per 2 person(for locals price is 20.000)
    We've been 2 ladies with local driver and he said we have to pay to get there, I think they share with him.
    We see 2 waterfalls only, don't know if have third one..
    Indonesia people never will make friend with you if you will not pay them.. So sad and bad experience..

    Beautiful! Besides the little kids following you in the stairs so you have to buy something. Each way they were climbing the stairs with us, following us = bring some cash with you 😉 This is awfully sad. We bought before hand some Oreos and other candies to give away, they all laughed of happiness. If you go please get them something 😊

    This place is in Bali, Indonesia. Nice place to relax for sometime. I don't think there'll be water in Summer. They have a nice place to sit there. You have to climb down for about 500-600 metres from main road to reach the falls. There are many street shopping kind of shops, open for too much bargaining. You can definitely shop there. Nice place for taking photos.

    not that special, once you've seen some other waterfalls in Bali. Big minus for the way to the falls, which is basically one long market. You can get cheap stuff but if you're not into shopping, you will be sick and tired of people trying to sell you stuff. and do not take a guide, its a waste of money.

    This was one of the worst experiences while in Bali. The locals tried to charge us 400,000 for a guide. We said it wasn’t worth and tried to walk away and they immediately dropped the price to 200,000 so we agreed but later found out a guide is not even needed. The waterfalls were also less than impressive.. we visited Munduk water and Aling Aling the same day and both were much better and cheaper

    Beautiful Nature of Bali of course not forget with the waterfall included.
    This place is one of the best waterfall in Bali and the best ones in Buleleng region, North Bali.

    Located at the centre of between beach and highland, make this place is one of the best destination to recommended that you must visit.

    The waterfall is nice, but having in mind the mountain road you need to take to get there - maybe it is not that special. There are other waterfalls that are closer to main towns and easier to reach. If you decided to visit it -have your swimwear on - so you can have a refreshing swim also. It takes around 10 minutes hike to get there - through the local "shopping street"- everyone asking you to buy something :). We have paid to a local tour guide (which was expensive and you can easily do without - they say it's for charity, for the education of the children - but who knows..). The guide provided us with some info on local flora and fauna, village life on the way to the waterfall. It was interesting but rather overpriced.

    I agree to the review of Olli. Its a nice tranquil place - once you arrive. The way getting there leads to tons of vendors that send their kids begging you to buy something. It really ruins the experience. While I know people must earn their living its not honest and they should also consider not selling the same merchandise in every second stall.

    It is not an easy place to find. If you use google route to this place, it will lead you to the wrong place (tried in december 2018). You will not get to the waterfalls and will be below the cascade.

    We reach the place when it was without people and kind a deserted. Last stop on end of our day. Long walk up and down and even lover to get to the bottom of the waterfall. Really moist place especially after some rain, which made the waterfall even stronger.

    Beautiful waterfall, but some of that is taken away by locals hustling you all the way in. Really wish it wasn’t setup to have to pass 50 vendors selling the same gifts on the 20 minute walk in and out but this is the norm in places like Bali it seems. Still, worth a see if you’re nearby!

    Instead of walk in the nature to the waterfall we got a walk though small pavilions with people that try to sell you stuff. You definitely do not need a guide there. Paid 20 000 idr for the entrance.
    Waterfall itself is beautiful, but Bali has some better ones. Sekumpul Waterfall that is located not far away from this one is much better place to visit. If you have time and a motorbike, Sekumpul waterfalls is much better choice.

    There are 5 waterfalls here and they are superbly beautiful! Easier to trek to than Sekumpul but just as relaxing, fun and refreshing.

    Guides are nice but really unnecessary. Only get one if you want to donate money to the local temple (which is what they say the money goes to). The guide really just tells you about some local plants and takes pictures for you. The waterfall is nice but a lot of water has been diverted for farming so it is quite diminished. Nice part was that it wasn't flooded with tourists so you could enjoy some solitude and the sound of the water. Go if it's convenient but don't sweat it if you can't make it.

    Be wary of "friendly" locals offering to guide you around. They offered to show us around for 300,000 and show us a secret waterfall. We swerved it and gave a small donation to leave our motorbikes by the entrance. They even tried to say it would cost 100,000 just to gain access to the waterfall when we asked him. Later, we found out it was only 10,000 per person. Not such a nice local anymore.

    Putting all that aside. The main waterfall is great and the area offers an additional waterfall after walk along he twisting paths. Be warned, the paths are steep in places. We did the walk first and enjoyed a refreshing dip back at the main waterfall. It was quite busy so we had to wait to get a decent photo but was worth it. If you're looking for a remote, untouched waterfall then look elsewhere but we found it a nice experience.

    We went there by bike going up from Lovina: A hard route, especially with low-quality rental bikes, but the waterfall was worth the ride! Not to many tourist. Very refreshing to take pictures next to it. Such a lovely place to stay for a while - the pure sound of nature.

    It's ok. If you've seen other waterfalls this is nothing special. It's a relaxing walk down towards the falls and will have various vendors trying to sell you things. About 0.75km down to the falls.

    No need for a "guide" . Entry fee is $1000 rupias per person .

    Nice waterfall, but there is something about the ambience that bothered me. Not a very relaxing place. I think you can skip gitgit waterfall and go somewhere else. On the way to the waterfall there were many locals that wanted to sell you some stuff, not aggressive though, buy still a little bit annoying.

    Beautiful falls. Pushy locals that try and scam you. Tours/guides not needed. 10k rupiah price per adult not 300k like they tried on my family. 10 min walk down 200 or so stairs. We did the walk carrying kids and we were fine.

    Falls are worth watching after a long walk. Although I could not go too close to the falls due to the pressure of water, I got completely drenched standing quite far. For water lovers, these falls are eye catching.

    Gitgit means cold water. Nice waterfall. Clean water, easy path all concrete. Slippery when it's rain. If you dive in that cold water river be careful with the leech. Ask your spouse to check your back :)

    Very nice waterfall. I've seen comments about guides. I was not approached by any (low season) and everything was very quiet, but if they offer you a guide don't take it. It's a very simple and short walk, all concrete.

    Nothing special.
    Very small waterfall.
    Instead of nice waterfall, there are too many ugly shops.
    However, the Luwak coffee shop at the enterance is very nice.
    Only 30000 Rupiah.
    By the way, there are several enterances for Gitgit waterfall, but if you follow the google map, it must be wrong.

    Gitgit is one of Bali’s most impressive and highest waterfalls, located just 10 kilometres south of Singaraja. Follow the narrow path into the jungle and you’ll pass colourful souvenir stands, clove trees and coffee plantations on your way to the waterfall. Soon you will feel a cooling mist dispersing through the air, and suddenly the gushing falls come into view. Stop at the rest area at the base of the falls to snap some photos, enjoy cold drinks and snacks or dip your feet in the cooling river, or head further up the hill to see the lovely multi-tiered Gitgit Twin Waterfalls.

    Must See Waterfall in Bali No. 1 - Gitgit Waterfall Bali Indonesia (Air Terjun Gitgit Bali)

    A Long Walk but Worth the Hike - Recommended to Newbie’s who want to explore a very popular attraction in Bali.

    You probably have already heard about Gitgit Waterfall as it is one of the most famous tourist attractions in the North of Bali. The Cascading Gitgit Waterfall is located in the Gitgit countryside, Sukasada district, Buleleng regency, about 11 Kilometers from Singaraja, Bali’s former capital, or about 75 kilometers from Nusa Dua, the southern part of Bali.

    Gitgit Waterfall is located in a plateau, about 300 meters above sea level. It is the height of about 40 meters, surrounded by tropical trees and a lush green environment which has the charm of an undiscovered place. Gitgit Waterfall is a must see attraction.

    The way to Gitgit Waterfall is paved with lots of stalls and on either side of the path you can find some lush plantations (coffee and cloves). The sellers are not aggressive at all and you can finally enjoy a 15 minute walk without getting hassled by anyone.

    Even if the stairs and the path to Gitgit waterfall are well maintained, high heels or flip flops would definitely be the wrong choice.

    A Gazebo close to Air Terjun Gitgit offers you the perfect opportunity to stop and enjoy a wonderful waterfall view and if you are lucky you can even see some wild monkeys.

    Local legend has it that couples bathing together under the waterfall, will separate soon after their visit.

    Gitgit waterfall is the perfect family attraction as kids can play in the water and romp around but please be aware of the slippery rocks.

    Gitgit is the most popular Waterfall in Bali and it’s definitely worth a visit. However Bali has some nicer waterfalls to offer, hidden beauties, waiting for you to discover them.

    During the rainy season all waterfalls have a larger flow of water gushing down them and the really show the full force of nature.

    Recommended things to bring:

    - Trainers
    - Swimwear
    - Towels

    It was a 3 hour scooter drive to reach this waterfall, but the ride was worth it. I've done a lot of waterfalls, but this one had incredible force, even when down on the base of the waterfall.

    DO NOT TAKE A GUIDE!!! It's a daylight robbery!!! 600k for 2 person. The path is easy to find (all concrete), just a bit slippery. They will tell you that you won't find your way, but you will. Definitely!!! (0* for the pricy guides)

    The waterfalls are very nice. Definitely a must see. Take your time finding all 3 waterfalls. (5* for the waterfalls)
