Chennai city tour - Rajesh was an extremely friendly and knowledgable tour guide, and along with our private driver he showed us the delights of Chennai! We had an air conditioned vehicle and two stops scheduled to sample delicious local food. A great way to see the city and learn about the local landmarks. Thank you Rajesh!

Great tour of Chennai temples and main sights - We had a great half day with Rajesh. He and the driver picked us up on time from the agreed pick up point. The car was very comfortable and air conditioned which was a relief in the heat! We also had delicious breakfast and coffee and ended the tour with a great vegetarian lunch. Great way to see the sights of Chennai and learn about its temples!

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!

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.
