Chennai Tours, Tickets & Excursions

"Excellent, informative tour of Chennai India. This tour itinerary covers the major tourist spots in Chennai with the relaxing pace to visiting these points of interest. Having a private guide and driver provides us with the best possible experience for our vacation trip."

"Ramesh was an excellent guide. he explained everything well and gave me enough time to slowly look around and take photos. The transport was quick, efficient and on time. The driver, Baskar was very nice and accommodating. It was an excellent experience!"

"The local guide was SO informative and professional. He also really made me feel comfortable and safe. I would love to take this tour again. So much history to absorb!"

"Had a great experience exploring Chennai from a different perspective. Satish, our tour guide, was informative and enthusiastic about the history and buildings in Chennai. Must try experience if you are interested in history and architecture, or if you just want to see Chennai from a different perspective."

"It was a great experience. The tour guide knew all of the stops and was really knowledgeable at every stop."

"Vicky and Sharmini were great hosts. They explained each site in much detail and also allowed ample time for us to take many pictures. They were both super accommodating and I would surely recommend anyone to take this walking tour when visiting Chennai."

"Kannan is supremely knowledgeable about history, religion and culture, and the Gods of Mylapore tour is an excellent way to immerse yourself in the local culture. Wholeheartedly recommended!"

"Thanks to our guide and driver, we have enjoyed our selves to visit to Kanchipuram. Those temples and monuments were fur much more interesting than we have expected. I would like to recommend this tour to those who can communicate in English."

"Had a wonderful time exploring the temples in Mahabalipuram and Kanchipuram with Nive as my guard. We started the day with an early departure, she was already waiting in the lobby for me to arrive. The temples and structures were amazing and Nive explained the meaning of the many statues and carvings at Kanchipuram. She pointed out places to take the best pictures. She was very easy to understand and always very helpful. When we stopped for lunch she made sure that the food was not too spicy for me. The temples at Mahabalipuram were equally beautiful and amazing how well they are preserved. Nive went out of her way to help assure my tour was very educational and enjoyable. This was very important to me as a solo female traveler. Five Senses has very professional and caring guides on their tours. Thanks Nive!!"

"This tour was a great last minute option for us as it provided for everything end to end. From the minute we left our Pune hotel to the minute we arrived back we were guided - except obviously on the airplane. The pick up in Delhi airport was waiting and Prem our driver gave us a fantastic welcome, including flower leis and snacks for the road trip to Agra including beers and water. Our tour guide Mahesh joined us in Agra and the he provided a very detailed knowledge and understanding of the Taj and its history. Starting early the next day made all the difference particularly with the crowds. He has a real passion for the city and being a local and part of the culture makes a difference. The shopping was good as well and it gives you the opportunity to experience some of the history of the arts and crafts of that era. Just be weary that if you express the least bit of interest in an item the sales men willl force it on you. Dont be afraid to force a haggle. One item went from 2400 to 1000 and you can potentially go lower buy walking away. All in all it is a very efficient, easy and safe way to get around Agra. On the way back as we wanted to visit a few places in Delhi the guide was ok for us to get lunch on the go from anywhere included in the trip so we could do that which is the part of the beauty and flexibility of the Indian people. Pick up from the hotel a bit earlier in Pune would have seen us be able to factor in a few other things into Delhi or relax a bit more when we arrived in Agra. Be prepared for a very active 48 hours but well worth the trip. Even Raj, the travel coordinator kept tabs on us the whole way via WhatsApp making sure we arrived after flights and to hotels every step of the way. He was also in constant contact with the tour guide and driver making sure everything was fine all the way to arrival back at your Pune hotel. Thanks Raj, Mahesh and Prem we had a great time and look forward to the next experience."

"I was expecting the Taj to be majestic (which it was) but the for surprised me on how wonderful it was. Normally we see forts in ruins and the fact that it is so in tact and has such a rich history was a very pleasant surprise. The entire trip though was fantastic and I truly recommend this trip."

"Listening to the stories and histories behind the heritages made the whole experience so much better! It was totally worth it but I really do recommend for you to wear lots of sun cream and hat bring lots of water and umbrella!"

"Rajesh my tour guide was very knowledgeable and very nice. Sanju my driver was also great. Always on time very nice and helpful. Great quick excursion-highly recommend!"
