Welcome to Madurai! As soon as you step out of the Madurai Airport or railway station, our friendly professional representative will greet you and transfer you directly to your hotel in a private air-conditioned vehicle. After finishing your smooth check-in process at Hotel Madurai Heritage, take some time to unpack your bags and refresh your energy. In the late afternoon, your private taxi will take you to visit the world-famous Meenakshi Amman Temple, where you can gaze at the massive colorful towers, explore the ancient stone-carved pillars, and witness local evening rituals. Afterwards, head back to your comfortable room for a peaceful overnight stay in Madurai.

Savor a delicious fresh breakfast at the hotel restaurant before checking out of your room. Hop into your private air-conditioned vehicle to begin a beautiful, winding 4-hour road trip covering roughly 120 kilometers up into the clouds of Kodaikanal. Watch the scenery transform from bustling cityscapes to deep green valleys, cascading mountain streams, and vast forest plantations as you climb the hills. Upon reaching the hill station, check into the gorgeous Hotel Sterling Kodai Valley and spend your evening completely free at leisure to relax, feel the crisp mountain breeze, and enjoy a restful overnight stay.

Fuel up with a hot breakfast at your resort before heading out for a fantastic full-day guided tour of Kodaikanal’s top natural attractions. Start your morning experiencing a peaceful private boat ride on the calm waters of the star-shaped Kodai Lake, followed by a relaxing stroll along the vibrant, manicured flower paths of Bryant Park. Next, drive up to visit the peaceful Kurinji Andavar Temple, a unique spiritual site dedicated to Lord Murugan that is worldly-famous for the rare Kurinji flowers that bloom on the slopes only once every twelve years. Spend your late afternoon exploring local handicraft stalls to buy homemade chocolates, essential oils, and spices before returning to the resort for your final overnight stay.

Enjoy your final hot breakfast looking out at the foggy mountains, pack your travel bags, and complete the standard resort check-out process. Step back into your private air-conditioned car for a comfortable drive down the scenic winding highways back to the lowlands. Your professional driver will provide a smooth transfer directly back to the Madurai Airport or railway station to catch your onward flight or train back home. Your refreshing heritage and hill station vacation concludes with wonderful smiles, unique photos, and beautiful family memories!
