The cradle of Dravidian civilisation. Tamil Nadu's temples, Chennai coast, Mahabalipuram heritage, Ooty hill routes, and nearby South India extensions make it a strong holiday choice.

Tamil Nadu Works for Both Pilgrimage and Relaxed South India Holidays
Tamil Nadu is usually booked in two ways. Some travellers want a focused temple circuit through Kanchipuram and Chidambaram, with Tirupati in Andhra Pradesh added as a nearby pilgrimage extension from Chennai. Others want a softer holiday through Chennai, Mahabalipuram, Ooty and Coonoor, or a Puducherry extension.
The current packages reflect that split. The temple tour is a 6-day Chennai-Tirupati-Kanchipuram-Chidambaram route, combining Tamil Nadu temples with Tirupati in Andhra Pradesh. The Ooty package starts from Coimbatore and focuses on Ooty Lake, Doddabetta, Botanical Garden, Rose Garden, Coonoor, Dolphin's Nose, Lamb's Rock, and Sim's Park. The Chennai-Mahabalipuram-Puducherry package follows the East Coast Road with city sightseeing, UNESCO heritage, Auroville near Puducherry, White Town, and Promenade Beach.
Packages include accommodation, breakfast, exclusive cab sightseeing and transfers, fuel, driver allowance, night halt, road taxes, and parking. Darshan tickets, entry tickets, toy train tickets, airfare, train fare, insurance, and personal expenses are separate unless added before booking.

Choose Your Tamil Nadu Tour
Select a Chennai-Tirupati-Kanchipuram-Chidambaram temple circuit, an Ooty-Coonoor hill escape from Coimbatore, or a Chennai-Mahabalipuram-Puducherry coastal heritage route.
Tamil Nadu trips can be temple-first or holiday-first. We keep the route, timing, and inclusions aligned with that purpose.
Darshan details are handled early
Tirupati darshan tickets should be booked in advance through the official TTD portal, and traditional attire is recommended for major temples.
Right gateway for the route
Chennai works for Kanchipuram, Chidambaram, Mahabalipuram, plus nearby Tirupati in Andhra Pradesh and Puducherry. Coimbatore is the practical start for Ooty and Coonoor.
Exclusive cab included
Sightseeing and transfers use an exclusive cab with fuel, driver allowance, night halt, road taxes, and parking included in the package structure.
Optional experiences stay flexible
Nilgiri Toy Train, Auroville access near Puducherry, beach leisure, temple tickets, and entry tickets can be handled based on availability and your preference.
Good for families and couples
Ooty and the Puducherry extension work well for couples, while Tamil Nadu temple circuits and Chennai-Mahabalipuram routes are strong for family and senior travel.

Vishal Mishra
"I had an amazing time exploring Gujarat with Meet N Greet Travels. From the bustling streets of Ahmedabad to the White Rann in Kutch and Gir Forest, every destination was wonderful. The hotels were cozy and well located, including a heritage stay in Vadodara and a peaceful retreat in Saputara. The drivers were friendly and knowledgeable. A great choice for a comfortable and memorable Gujarat trip."
Akhilesh Kumar
"We had a good experience overall. The car was very comfortable and the driver was good. Le Lac Sarovar hotel was very nice. The hotel in Netarhat was slightly disappointing; staying at Jharkhand Tourism's Prabhat Vihar would be better due to its location near the sunrise point."
Vasanthi Murugesh
"Amazing experience. The tour was well managed and the staff were cooperative. Hope to plan another trip again."
Jyotirani Bhowmick
"Overall experience was very good. However the driver-cum-guide role could be improved as he did not have the itinerary and asked us about the next destination. A guide should be present or the driver should have better knowledge about the places."
Sandeep
"We had a wonderful experience with Meet N Greet Travels. The trip was beautifully planned and organized by agent Shubham. The resorts were excellent with great ambience and efficient staff. The food quality was excellent and the cab driver was punctual and supportive. However, a lot of time went into travelling by cab which created some stress."

Shamal
"The transport, driver, booking process and explanation by Mr. Subham were good. Accommodation at Dwarka was good, but the hotels at Sasan Gir and Somnath were disappointing and could be improved."
Sanjaya Kumar Pradhan
"Had a comfortable vacation with Meet N Greet. The driver was friendly and guided us well. The team ensured we reached all places on time and did not miss any destinations in the plan.

Plan Your Trip
When Should You Go?
October – March
Best overall season for Tamil Nadu tours and nearby extensions. Weather is more comfortable for Chennai, Mahabalipuram, Puducherry, Tirupati, Kanchipuram, Chidambaram, and Ooty.
April – June
Ooty and Coonoor remain popular because the Nilgiri hills stay cooler. Temple and coastal sightseeing should be planned with early starts.
July – September
Travel is possible, but humidity and rain can affect coastal sightseeing. Hill routes remain scenic, though mist and road conditions may vary.
Festival dates
Temple routes can be powerful during festival periods but also more crowded. Darshan planning, dress code, and timing become more important.
Note: Tirupati darshan tickets and Nilgiri Toy Train seats are subject to availability and should be planned before travel.
