Embark on a captivating journey through South India's rich heritage! This morning, around 8:00 AM, our representative will meet you at your Chennai hotel and whisk you away to Mahabalipuram. Along the way, we'll stop at Kanchipuram, the legendary "City of 1000 Temples" and one of India's seven sacred cities. Here, immerse yourself in the spiritual atmosphere as you visit renowned temples like Kamakshi Amman Temple, Kanchi Kailasanathar Temple, Varadaraja Perumal Temple, and Ekambareswar Temple (choose a few based on time constraints). After this enriching experience, continue your journey to Mahabalipuram. Upon arrival, check in to your hotel and unwind for a while. Later, prepare to be awestruck by the UNESCO World Heritage Site - the 7th- and 8th-century Group of Monuments. Witness the architectural marvels of Pancha Rathas, Ganesha Ratha, the Cave Temples, Descent of the Ganges, Shore Temple, and more (select a few key highlights). Overnight stay at your Mahabalipuram hotel.

Indulge in a delicious breakfast at your Mahabalipuram hotel, and then embark on a captivating journey back to Chennai for a full-day city tour. Immerse yourself in the city's rich history and culture as you visit the iconic Marina Beach, the second largest in the world. Pay homage at the Kapaleeshwarar Temple, and delve into the past at Fort St. George, the oldest fort in Chennai. The afternoon unfolds with visits to the majestic Santhome Cathedral, the National Art Gallery showcasing India's artistic heritage, and St. Mary's Church, a marvel of colonial architecture. For a touch of nature, head to the Anna Zoological Park. Learn about the wonders of space at the Birla Planetarium, and unwind amidst greenery at People's Park. Those seeking cultural immersion can visit Kalakshetra, a renowned institution dedicated to classical Indian arts, and Theosophical Society, a center promoting universal brotherhood.

Although tipping in India is not compulsory, doing so is a nice gesture. In some circumstances, a small tip is expected. The rules of etiquette for gratuity in India are a little muddled as a colonial past, tourism, and cultural influences clash. We do recommend tipping at various instances, but tip higher only when you are very happy with the service. Tip can given after completion of the services from 5$, 10$ or more as per your choice and depending on how much satisfied & happy you are with the service provider.
