Great tour - Great tour. Took in the sights and wonders of Chennai. The main Hindu temple was a delight topped off by the fact there was a festival happening nearby with all the noise and splendour you get on a visit to India. Good knowledgeable guide and a great driver. My wife and I loved it, especially the biryani for lunch. Yum!

Very good tour! - Rajesh our tour leader was punctual and communicated well with us throughout the city tour. He has quite in-depth knowledge of the history of the monuments, temples and museum we visited. Lastly, the lunch provided was top quality too. Well done and thank you to Rajesh and the driver for providing us with a great tour of the city.

The tour was OK - The guide just lacked a little enthusiasm. The Fort St. George Museum was a little tricky. First, the guide said we couldn’t go that day because some people were making a petition to the governor. Maybe, things changed later. We did go in and everything was OK.

Not much to get excited about. - 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.
