Free walking tours in Madurai

Suresh had arranged Kesavan to guide us around the temple. He explained all aspects in detail, covered every area and assisted with all the procedures. It was a wonderful procedure.

It's very nice event. This is my first time I attended Ceremony.

We had a truly divine time with Dhanabalan. He is a learned and wise individual, who instantly made us feel at ease. He was knowledgeable and engaging. We did not want the tour to end - it was that good!!! We highly recommend him, if you are in Madurai! Thank you once again Sir.

Mr. Dhanabalan Perumal was very accomodative throughout. My parents wanted to join the tour at the very last minute so he was kind enough to ensure that they got their breaks to rest in between. He also met us at a gate closest to us rather than insisting we meet at the designated point for he thought it would be easier for my parents. He was highly knowledgeable and gave us view points from all perspectives making the visit to the temple even more meaningful. His detailed explanations made the walk truly memorable. We are grateful to him for a wonderful experience.

Dhanapal was very professional! Really appreciate his time and effort! Thanks

Fabulous way to visit the temple. Beware of traffic woes and start early to avoid large crowds. The tour was great and our guide was excellent with their knowledge of the temple and history. Enjoyed it immensely

Perfect Tour - Tour Guide was friendly, he explained me a lot and his English was very good. I am very happy about my Tour!

Mr. Dhanabalan does an excellent job of describing the place history , etymology, literary mentions about the temple. He is more than happy to answer your queries and share with you the photos and literature about the temple

Mr Bala is very patient and able to answer the questions which we have. He has a wealth of information not only on Madurai temple but the dynasty ruled madurai and Tamilnadu. He is a treasure of information and I am extremely satisfied the 2 hours of tour which he did for us and Thank you Bala.i strongly recommend people looking to use his services

Bala is just too good . His knowledge of history and the temples is phenomenal... The two hour your was excellent and worth it... He kept us captivated and the two hours just went by!

What to say …. Without Bala Madurai is not Madurai. If you want to learn, enjoy, immerse in the culture and have a blast during your stay please contact him. His english is excellent, and he is patience and very honest person. Please don’t miss out the visit with him. We did the temple and afterwards the banana and flower market. Thanks for an amazing morning ! !
