On the Bay of Bengal lies the world famous city of Chennai. It was formally known as Madras and Chennai is the capital of the Indian state of Tamil Nadu, one of the largest cities in India.

Chennai holds many lures for those wanting to travel on their Chennai holidays. The city itself is a wonderful place to explore, with historic sites such as at Vivekanandar Illam, Valluvar Kottam and Fort St. George worth any tourist to the city visiting.

It is the hectic atmosphere and sound and smells that you will probably remember most as well as the sumptuous regional cuisine.

We have had the most relaxing holiday ever. Thanks for arranging everything, it all worked out perfectly. The three weeks just flew by. Having travelled around so much of India and seen so much, having the last week on the beach in Goa was just perfect.
