The temples constructed by the Cholas in central Tamil Madu are among the most interesting and complex in India. Several are UNESCO sights. Some are active temples and some are maintained as historic sights and, although rituals are still performed, the public is given greater access to the sanctum areas, which makes for a more interesting visit,

The Chola trail to the golden triangle of south India was epic! We travelled as a family of 4 and had our expert guide Kannan who explained each place we visited with his significant knowledge and expertise and a driver who efficiently took us to each stop in comfort with an AC vehicle . The tour catered for our needs particularly travelling with a 9 and 12 year old with frequent ice cream and refreshing drink stops . We also were guided through the culinary delights of south India through our expert guide Kannan who suggested excellent local dishes to tantalise our taste buds!

The 2 day tour of Chola temples was amazing. We were picked up on time in a comfortable car and the 2 days flew past very enjoyably as we had the company of very knowledgeable guide. Satish was remarkable and we were transported 1000 years back to the time when Cholas were the dominant empire of South Asia. We saw 3 world heritage sites and each was fantastic in its own way. The Brihadeswar temple was impressive with its scale while Gangaikonda and Darasuram impressed with the sculptures. This is a must do tour for anyone who has 2 days to spare.
