On arrival in Chennai, we will pick you up from the Airport or Railway Station. We will transfer you to your hotel for check-in.
- Arulmigu Kapaleeswarar Temple- Situated in the heritage quarter of Mylapore, Arulmigu Kapaleeswarar Temple is an ancient Dravidian temple that venerates Lord Shiva as Kapaleeshwarar alongside Goddess Karpagambal. Though dating to the 7th century, it was reconstructed in the 16th century. Its towering 120-foot Gopuram and sacred tank stand out prominently, while the lively Panguni Peruvizha festival attracts large crowds of devotees annually.
- Vivekananda House (Illam)- Vivekananda House sheltered Swami Vivekananda during his 1897 sojourn in Chennai after the Chicago Parliament. Formerly known as Ice House, it is now a museum preserving the monk's inspirational teachings. You can catch the cool sea breeze as you admire the Indo-Saracenic seaside architecture and explore the exhibition halls that document his journey through photographs.
- Chennai Lighthouse- Rising gracefully along the edge of Marina Beach, the Chennai Lighthouse is a working maritime beacon. As you make your way up, the city reveals itself in breathtaking layers. You can enjoy the golden sweep of the shoreline, the deep blue stretch of the Bay of Bengal, and Chennai’s skyline unfolding in every direction. It is a vantage point that feels exclusive, expansive, and unforgettable.
- Marina Beach- Stretching for thirteen uninterrupted kilometres along the Bay of Bengal Marina Beach is where Chennai comes alive every evening. Families wander along the sands, and the scent of roasted corn and local delicacies drifts through the air. Historic memorials stand with quiet dignity along the stretch, adding depth and character to the landscape.
- Dr. MGR Memorial- Dr. MGR Memorial is a monument that celebrates M.G. Ramachandran's extraordinary dual career as a cinema icon and Chief Minister. Its white façade and dramatic arch reflect reverence and pride. Photographs and memorabilia trace his journey from silver-screen icon to political powerhouse, offering a glimpse into decades of devotion from millions of admirers.

The facility houses Asia's second-largest telescope at the Telescope Observatory, which conducts astronomical research. As dusk settles, public viewing sessions are scheduled, planetarium shows are available, and celestial observation opportunities fascinate visitors.
