- JJemmey· February 1st, 2024We had the pleasure of going on a South India Tour Package that included visits to Chennai, Kanchipuram, Mahabalipuram, Pondicherry, Thanjavur, and Trichy. I was blown away by the beauty, history, and culture of these cities, and I have to say, the meals included in the package were the icing on the cake. Our tour started in Chennai, the capital city of Tamil Nadu. We were greeted by our friendly guide who took us to our hotel and helped us settle in. The next morning, we were off to explore the city. From the stunning Marina Beach to the vibrant markets, Chennai was a treat for all the senses. The highlight of our day was the delicious South Indian meal we had for lunch. The flavors were unlike anything I had tasted before, and the use of local ingredients made it even more special. The next stop on our tour was Kanchipuram, known as the 'City of Thousand Temples'. Our guide took us to some of the most famous temples in the city, and each one was more impressive than the last. We also had the opportunity to witness the famous silk weaving process, for which Kanchipuram is renowned. The day ended with a traditional South Indian dinner at a local restaurant, and it was one of the best meals of the trip. Mahabalipuram was our next destination, and it was a true delight. The ancient rock-cut temples and monuments were a sight to behold, and our guide's knowledge of the history behind them was impressive. We also had the chance to try some delicious seafood dishes at a beachside restaurant, which was a perfect way to end the day. Pondicherry was one of the highlights of the tour for me. The French influence in this city was evident in its architecture, cuisine, and overall vibe. We visited the famous Auroville Ashram and had a delicious French-inspired lunch at a local bistro. The fusion of Indian and French flavors in the food was a unique experience. Thanjavur and Trichy were equally fascinating with their beautiful temples and rich history. Our guide made sure we didn't miss any of the must-see sights, and we also had the opportunity to try some authentic local dishes. The meals included in our tour package were always a perfect balance of traditional South Indian cuisine and modern twists, which added to the overall experience. Overall, the South India Tour Package with Chennai, Kanchipuram, Mahabalipuram, Pondicherry, Thanjavur, and Trichy was a memorable and enriching experience. The meals included were a delicious and essential part of the trip, giving us a taste of the local culture and flavors. I highly recommend this tour package to anyone looking to explore the stunning South Indian cities. It will leave you with lasting memories and a newfound appreciation for South Indian cuisine.Show moreTrip date: February 2024
- SWShauny· May 5th, 2023South India Tour Package with Chennai, Kanchipuram, Mahabalipuram, Pondicherry, Thanjavur, Trichy and I must say it was an incredible experience. From the moment I arrived in Chennai, I was impressed with the hospitality and organization of the tour. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and passionate about the history and culture of each place we visited. The itinerary was well-designed, allowing us to experience the best of South India. The accommodations were comfortable and clean, and the staff were always friendly and helpful. One of the highlights of the tour for me was the visit to Mahabalipuram, where we got to see the stunning rock-cut temples and sculptures. Another highlight was the visit to Pondicherry, where we got to see the French Quarter and learn about the history of French colonization in India. Overall, I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore the beauty and culture of South India. Thank you for providing such an unforgettable experience.Show moreTrip date: April 2023

Jonathan
Asked on June 12th, 2024We are still making a decision about what part of Southern India would be the best to visit. We like the look of this tour and wondering Are there any other Tours you can suggest for these dates that don't require long days of travelling but rather to see as much as possible. Both my 24 year old daughter and myself have been to India previously, basically around the Golden Triangle, that's why we are keen to travel to Southern India? It will be the first time for my 22 year old daughter.
