Tamil Nadu is one place in India where the elaborate architecture and brilliant sculptures of its ancient temples leave all its tourists spellbound with their awe-inspiring beauty. No wonder it is known as the Temple City of India. With almost all the temples built during ancient and medieval times, a visit to these sites gives you a deep insight into the brilliant architectural, sculptural and artistic skills of the engineers, architects and artisans of the bygone era.

These temples also showcase the opulent and lavish tastes of the erstwhile royal kings, be it Cholas, Pallavas or Nayakas. Standing tall as the backbone of the Tamil culture, these temples are today, India’s precious jewels adding to its rich history and heritage.

This short trip is a compact yet comprehensive experience of the magnificent temples of Tamil Nadu. With a mix of 4 and 5 star hotels, this seven-day tour is specially designed keeping in mind a comfortable and hassle-free stay. A spacious SUV (Toyota Innova) with chauffeur at your disposal will add to the comfort level. There will be private English-speaking guides to inform you of the the inside stories and history of the wonderful temples.
