I booked South India temple tour and visited here with my family and it is one of the best trips of my life. I visited the tour with my family and everything was very well arranged from food to stays. It was a spiritual journey for me with my family.
I booked Ooty Kodaikanal Package and visited Ooty with my family. Our journey began from Bangalore and we travelled on the wonderful roads of Ooty. The journey was comfortable and cosy and the food in some places was satisfactory.
I can say that this tour was very well-organized and well-executed by the professional team. Start from Chennai to Kanyakumari the tour was very great and all temples were well-maintained. We learned a lot about the history of the temple.
It's an interesting tour to know some historical temples, the temples are beautiful & we can take a lot of photos there! 7-days in Tamilnadu, which we covered all the major attractions... The whole tour was greatly organized and arranged...
We create unforgettable adventures, customised for your group.
