Nos dirigimos hacia Mylapore, un antiguo barrio residencial de Chennai, cuya historia se remonta a la época romana, cuando solía intercambiar pimienta y telas finas con Roma por oro. Visitamos el magnífico templo de Kapaleeshwar. Construido en el siglo séptimo, este templo está dedicado a Lord Shiva. Construido en una arquitectura de estilo dravídico, tiene un imponente "Gopuram". Los huéspedes pueden esperar una fascinante experiencia de rituales y serenidad dentro del templo. ¡Nuestro evangelista cultural desmitificará los acontecimientos en el templo!

Great experience! Must do!

Hareesh was very nice and the tour was perfectly designed. They also ask you what you want to do in case there are other things you want to see. The car was air conditioned and came with multiple waters. I highly recommend even if you are solo.

Highly recommend!

This tour was perfect. Well structured, informative and interesting. My guide - Jainath was well informed and brought in lots of interesting trivia. We toured two temples, a museum and marina beach for a half day tour. Great value for money.

If you have the time for tour in the great city of Chennai this is the one for you.

If you have the time for tour in the great city of Chennai this is the one for you. The tour was incredibly well-organized, covering the history of Chennai and how it came to be. The tour highlights cultural significance of their monuments and good viewpoint of local life. My guide Kannan was the definition of brilliance as he passion for the city was almost profound as his knowledge about the city. He shared fascinating stories behind each landmark,whilst making the experience feel personal and engaging. I truly believe that from various temples, significant landmarks and scenic Marina Beach, every stop provided uniqueness and wasn't handed the same way. I now leave Chennai with deep appreciation and highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to get a taste of this city.t on the full tour with Guide

A truly engaging and well-organised Chennai experience

We had a fantastic experience on the private Chennai city tour for an immersive cultural experience with Five Senses Tours, and I would highly recommend it. Kannan, our guide, was exceptional. He is knowledgeable, engaging, and very attentive throughout the day. What makes him stand out is his ability to explain not only the history but also the everyday cultural context of Chennai in a very clear and interesting way. He is also extremely well organised and ensures that everything runs smoothly while keeping the experience relaxed. The tour itself is very well designed and truly immersive. You cover key highlights of the city such as temples, colonial landmarks, and cultural sites, while also getting a real sense of local life. It feels much more than a standard city tour. The private car setup adds a lot of comfort and flexibility, allowing you to go at your own pace and focus on what interests you most. Everything is handled seamlessly from pick up to drop off. Overall, this is an excellent way to discover Chennai in a meaningful and well organised way. A big thank you to Kannan and the Five Senses team for delivering such a high-quality experience.

Breezing through Chennai's landmarks

I don't usually do guided tours but Ganesh was a lovely guide! It was a very comfortable way of seeing the top sites of the city with some glimpses of what everyday life looks like in Chennai. There are a lot of different cultural elements to the tour, from religion, to fisherman's neighbourhoods and some good local food and snacks. Definitely glad I had the chance of squeezing all of this in my 24 hours in Chennai.

A great introduction to the city of Chennai, with excellent service.

We were picked up from our hotel at the appointed time. Our guide , Kannnan , gave us a thorough introduction to the city of Chennai. It was a wonderful private tour covering the major temples , churches and museums and other sites. Kannan was a great guide- he took care in explaining the history of the temples and ensured we were comfortable at all times. We never felt hurried. We even had time for a leisurely lunch. Would definitely recommend!

A cultural feast for your 5 senses

Our day tour with Kannan and Ardil was excellent. The temples were beautiful and Kannan ensured we felt welcome and also taught us how to respectfully enjoy this cultural experience. Lunch was a culinary journey and we very much enjoyed Kannan’s company throughout. Ardil is a five star driver. I highly recommend 5 senses.
