Murugan helped us organize a fantastic 11-day itinerary across Tamil Nadu and Kerala. He was very responsive throughout the whole process. Our driver, Ganesh, was outstanding and really took great care of us. The experience was priceless. Be aware that guide fees for visiting monuments were often six times as high as the government maximum for northern India. Also, if choosing to do a spice plantation visit and a Kathakali performance, these were booked in the moment rather than in advance, so there was no benefit to paying an extra service fee for the company to arrange it. Every day brought new wonder. We highly recommend Murugan and his team.

We had to do a two-week chauffeured tour in 2020 in South India that we had to postpone because of the Covid 19 pandemic. Murugan the founder of the agency was very flexible l.
We contacted him 4 years later to plan a new trip and he remembered us and kept our deposit for a new trip.
Murugan is very professional and responsive. He's good advice. It can organize your itinerary according to your interests and budget. We needed a car with driver. For the hotels and accommodation part, being quite autonomous, we had booked ourselves but Murugan can also manage your accommodation reservations, also Things to do, train tickets, guides for some cities etc.
With the driver, it is better to be firm and explain exactly what you want to do and where to go at Check-out especially when it comes to Shopping.
We will contact Murugan for a future trip, so much remains to be discovered!

In March 2024, my family and I had an unforgettable trip through Karnataka and Goa with the company South India Voyages. The itinerary was meticulously planned with Murugan, the company's boss. He was highly responsive, and our driver, Muthupandy, was exceptionally professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and always available. He was well-versed in the various sites to visit and provided excellent insights. This company is remarkable and very reliable.

We had 7 nights doing a Kerala tour with our lovely driver Haris all the time. Started with Cochi- Fort Cochi. A drive through gorgeous mountains to Munnar. Accomodation at the lovely Chandys Windy hotel. Glorious views of hills & full of tea plantations. Then a night on a houseboat in Alleppey. Very good along the backwaters. After a long drive on the worst roads- Haris handled them very well - had a few nights at Samundra beach. Lovely. Could have had gone at Kovolam beach. Lastly off to airport for Mumbai. Said our goodbyes to Haris. Would recommend him as his driving & guidance was very good. This is a very good trip to do.

Murugan was very helpful before our trip: making sure all the details were clear and providing as much as information as needed.
He came to meet us at the airport to introduce us to our amazing driver : Muthupandy.
We then met Murugan again in Madurai for a trip to a "secret" and very nice location.
Our driver Muthupandy was amazing: always smiling, very helpful and knowledgeable. He gave us really good recommendations for restaurants and hotels.
He went above and beyond our expectations!
We had a fantastic time with him and we highly recommend him!
Thank you to Murugan and Muthupandy to have made our time in South India so great

We have just returned from a great trip to South India. I prepared my trip and submitted my itinerary to Murugan. I was able to do absolutely everything I wanted, it was great! A tailor-made trip. He also advised me when I asked him questions. We had 2 drivers for 15 days. Whether it was Muthupandi or Haris, it was GREAT: they were caring, gave good advice, very pleasant and we had a good laugh! I highly recommend this very serious agency. Also, the vehicles are very comfortable. Gwanaëlle, Christèle, Danielle and Elizabeth

For our first trip to India, Murugan set us a week-long program that met all our expectations. He was very responsive.
He booked for our comfortable and well located hotels, and adapted to our wishes.
Our driver Kumar was really great: nice, punctual, good pilot and helped us with a lot of things!
It was a great experience!

We spent 12 wonderful days in India with family. It was a journey full of discoveries and wonders. We had the chance to benefit from the experience and kindness of Murugan, from the South India Voyages agency. Our driver Sami was always attentive, giving us good advice and good addresses while avoiding the tourist traps. They both helped make our trip a memorable one. It was exotic, touching and incredibly beautiful. We will come back one day I hope.
