The Perfect Day Trip
History Meets Divinity
This special package covers two of Tamil Nadu's most iconic destinations. Start your day with a trek up the Gingee Fort (often called the "Troy of the East"), a massive fortress complex atop three hillocks. Then, proceed to Tiruvannamalai, one of the Pancha Bhoota Stalams representing Fire (Agni).
Traveling by public bus between these two places can be exhausting due to the heat and crowd. Our Pondicherry to Tiruvannamalai Private Cab ensures you travel in AC comfort, giving you the energy to climb the fort and walk the temple corridors.
