“St Mary's church for its historical perspective. The rest of Chennai is not too fascinating. The guide was just okay. The driver more friendly. And it was hardly a Full Day .... starting at 9am and finished, including lunch, at 2pm. Frankly, not worth the money.”

The day itself was quite long but this was to be expected with all the visits that are packed in. I would not have changed anything. The driver Venkadesh was also very professional and safe.”
