Wonderful tour!
Published on Feb, 2020
This was a great tour. I got to see all of the four major temples in Chennai. As a solo traveler without a command of the local language, I didn't feel comfortable finding all of these sites on my own, but with the help of Ranjith, my friendly and punctual guide /driver, I effectively got to see the major temples. I would definitely recommend this tour (and Ranjith!) to tourists.

Highlight of Chennai!
