How much does a Chennai Airport to Mahabalipuram taxi cost?

How long does the Chennai Airport to Mahabalipuram journey take?

The 50 km drive takes about 1 hr, depending on traffic, weather and how many breaks you take. Your driver plans sensible stops so you arrive relaxed.

Is this a one-way fare or a round trip?

This is a one-way drop, so you only pay for the Chennai Airport–Mahabalipuram direction plus a modest driver allowance — far cheaper than a round trip if you aren't returning the same car. Round trips can also be arranged on request.

What types of cars are available?

You can choose a sedan (4 seats) for couples, an SUV or Innova (6–7 seats) for families and luggage, or a Tempo Traveller (12 seats) for groups. Tell us your passenger count on WhatsApp and we'll suggest the right vehicle.

Are tolls, parking and driver bata included?

Yes. The fare we quote is all-inclusive — tolls, parking and the driver's bata are built in, along with the airport entry fee. There are no extra charges at the end of the trip.

What if my flight is delayed?

Just share your flight number when you book. Your driver tracks the flight and waits at arrivals with a name board — a delay never means a missed pickup or an extra charge.
