What Is Included?
Depending on the selected package, our Tour Packages from Chennai can include:
- Private AC vehicle
- Chennai pickup and drop
- Driver allowance
- Toll charges
- Parking charges
- Planned travel route
Temple tickets, darshan tickets, meals, accommodation, guide charges, entry tickets, and special pooja fees are generally handled separately unless they are specifically mentioned in the chosen package.
One Day Tours for Families & Senior Citizens
A tightly packed itinerary is not always the best option, especially when travelling with children or elderly family members. Vishnu Travels can plan fewer stops with sufficient time for darshan, meals, and rest.
For senior citizens, destinations can be selected by considering walking distance, hill access, temple queues, travel duration, and the overall pace of the journey.
Customized One Day Tour
If a standard itinerary does not suit your plan, you can create a customized One Day Tour. Tell us your pickup location, preferred destinations, passenger count, and vehicle requirement, and the route can be planned accordingly.

From a short pilgrimage to Sholingur or Tiruttani to a full-day heritage trip to Kanchipuram or Mahabalipuram, we help plan the journey around the destination and the time realistically available.
