Mahabalipuram and Pondicherry combo
“Did the ECR run covering Mahabalipuram's shore temple and on to Pondicherry. Beautiful coastal drive, knowledgeable driver, and a fair fixed fare for the whole day. Couldn't have asked for more.”

Good Kanyakumari road trip
“Long drive but well managed with sensible breaks. Saw the sunset at Kanyakumari right on time thanks to the driver's pacing. Knocked off a star only for a slightly delayed start, which he did inform us about.”

Comfortable Bangalore to Salem
