    This was a very good tour. The driver was excellent, he made me feel really safe as a solo female traveler in Tamil Nadu and Kerala. I really appreciate the company upgrading my hotels, which helped in my sense of security. Most of the tour guides were also great. I was told by the guide that there is no Elephant Rescue in Thekkady or Elephant Sanctuary Tour in Periyar as advertised; only a commercial area where you can ride the elephants. I had paid extra to interact with the rescued elephants.

    The tour was really good. They took us everywhere mentioned in the itinerary. Was on time. Driver Guruswamy initially was driving too fast to the point we were uncomfortable. And my stomach got upset because of that. But asked him whether he could slowdown a bit and he did. He took us to places not mentioned in the itinerary too , like musical fountain and cultural fusion dance in Kanyakumari. And Poovar island. To be honest I don’t know whether it was worth the extra money. Guides were good and knowledgeable.

    I had a good experience with MTA. I wanted to see as many cities and the traditional highlights of Tamil Nadu in a short period of time. On the first day of the trip I made the request if it was possible to visit Mahabalipuram because this was not on the travel itinerary. I also informed them that I have an interest in learning the history of Tamil Nadu. So they included museums aswell. They made the changes for me directly. The tour guide was well versed in Tamil. And has a good understanding of the English language. I had the privilege to converse with him in Tamil. He gave clear and nice instructions. Whenever I had a request let it be an extra stop or questions regarding the beautiful tempels or monuments. He was able to answer all the questions. I made a great friend on the way!

    My wife and I had a fantastic time on our Tamilnadu Temple Tour. The MTA team went out of their way to customize the itinerary in order for us to visit a few places not included. Our driver was a lovely young man and an excellent driver. It was also nice to have one of the MTA team meet us at the hotel in Madurai to check if we were enjoying the tour. I would not hesitate to recommend MTA. We both loved India and will be returning in the future and will be organizing our next trip with MTA.
