It was fascinating to experience the hustle and bustle of the Georgetown market area! Such a crush of people, cars, tuk tuks, bikes, scooters, dogs, even horse drawn carts. The food part of the tour was ok, tasty for sure, but we were surprised to still be hungry- there just weren’t very many stops and the last stop was the same as the first. The sweets shop was a tour highlight. Our guide was organized, enthusiastic, and warm but the tour wasn’t super informative because we spent most of the time navigating the streets and not talking with him. We are glad we went.

The tour through the area was terrific! We did not feel comfortable with several of the sites in terms of use of local water and overall cleanliness. The guide was struggling because there was a national celebration and several of the planned sites were closed. We conveyed this to the guide but it was a challenging day.

Really great experience, good value for money and we would recommend to anyone visiting Chennai! Tharun was super friendly and helpful. He catered to everyone on the tour really well, such as making sure the foods were to our preference by asking for extra spice or low spice. We got to try a variety of sweet and savoury snacks as well as masala chai and sugar cane juice. Thank you for a great tour :)

Highly trained guide says La Vacanza Travel... this is not true. Friendly guide with not a clue of doing the tour. We went to 4 places , eat few things here and there. Very dissapointed. We felt robbed tbh. I raised a complaint to La Vacanza Travel... still didn't recieve a reply, not even acknowledge the complaint.

Amazing tour with Hareesh. Felt like a local with his help including the jammed city streets. Help us shop for a wide range of items including sandals, baby gifts, and silks. These are places that would be a bit intimidating to go on your own.
