Kumbakonam is called the temple town of Tamil Nadu for good reason — within a few kilometres sit some of the finest Chola-era shrines ever built, along with the sacred Mahamaham tank where lakhs of pilgrims gather once every twelve years. Adi Kumbeswarar, Sarangapani and Nageswaran anchor the town itself, while the UNESCO-listed Airavatesvara Temple at Darasuram and the Murugan hill temple at Swamimalai lie just minutes away.
Matha Call Taxi runs a comfortable, guided Kumbakonam temple tour with an experienced local driver who knows the town's narrow temple streets, the darshan timings and the best order to cover them in. Doorstep pickup from Kumbakonam, Thanjavur or Trichy, a fixed transparent fare, and all the time you need at every shrine.
