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.”

Ooty toy-train trip with kids
“The driver dropped us for the Coonoor toy train and picked us up at the other end — saved us so much hassle. Very child-friendly and never once rushed us. Clean SUV with space for the stroller.”

Pleasant Pondicherry drive on ECR
“Lovely coastal drive to Pondicherry. The driver suggested a nice beachside breakfast stop. Took off half a star only because pickup was ten minutes late, but he called ahead to inform. Overall a good experience.”
