Beaches of Tamil Nadu

This tour package is designed to give you some of the less popular beaches, which are, in true sense, no less than a lifetime journey into a newer world of beaches.The tour package includes most of the important places around Chennai such as Covelong, Mahabalipuram and Pondicherry and offers the traveller to experience the more charming and pristine face of Tamil Nadu.

This six day tour would definitely entice your aesthetics.
