Tamil Nadu Travel Guide

Before visiting this beautiful destination in South India, it’s helpful to learn a few details about Tamil Nadu. Carry a map of tourist places in Tamil Nadu for a hassle-free trip. Here is some more useful information about Tamil Nadu:

Food

South India, especially Tamil Nadu, has a wide range of delicious food for vegetarians as well as non-vegetarians. Most popular food items in Tamil Nadu are made from grains, lentils, rice, and fresh vegetables. However, spices are added to give a dish its distinctive taste. Spices are the main ingredient of Tamil Nadu food. The main food of Tamil Nadu varies from coastal areas to inland interior regions. While seafood is common in Chennai and Pondicherry, Tamil Nadu cuisine has different dishes to offer in hill regions.

Salem is renowned for its mangoes, Madurai is popular for milk dessert Jigarthanda, while Palani is known for Panchamirtham. The traditional food of Tamil Nadu is usually served on a banana leaf and is eaten with hand. Idli or dosa accompanied by sambhar or rasam are the highlights of Tamil cuisine. The special food of Tamil Nadu includes Santhakai, Chakkarai Pongal, Athirasam and Kuli Paniyaram.

Language

Tamil, one of the oldest classical languages, is the local language of Tamil Nadu. English is also a popular language in Tamil Nadu. Hindi is spoken and understood in major cities where the crowd is cosmopolitan. Most signboards and tourist information is written in Tamil along with English. The locals are fluent in basic English, if not in Hindi. So, there won’t be any major issues with language in Tamil Nadu.

    Vivek's 5 days trip to Tamil Nadu

    Cab driver was good but cab vendor behaviour was unprofessional. Just for Rs 300 he made the vehicle stop in the middle of the trip. He was not even ready to listen to me.

    Abhishek's 3 days trip to Tamil Nadu

    The services were good overall...Travel agent was reachable to me for any queries or issues. Cab driver was good as well. The only problem we faced was there was no restaurant near hotel in Trivandrum. Stay was comfortable though.

    Srkahmed's 2 days trip to Tamil Nadu

    This was my first time traveling with TravelTriangle, and I would like to sincerely appreciate Vishwajeet Singh for his consistent follow-ups and assurance that everything would go smoothly. He asked us to trust him—and he delivered. Even during the trip, he checked in to ensure we faced no issues.
    I truly believe he is a valuable asset to your team.

    Maharashtra

    Gwadibhasme's 4 days trip to Tamil Nadu

    ज्या भाषेचा माणूस टूर का गेला तर लँग्वेज च्या खूप मोठा प्रॉब्लेम होतो कारण ड्रायव्हरला स्थानिक भाषा येते आणि आपली भाषा आपण काय बोलतो ते कळत सुद्धा नाही. हा एक मोठा डिफॉल्ट मला या ooty ट्रीप मध्ये दिसून आला. म्हणून ज्या भाषेचे लोक फिरायला गेले त्यांना त्या राज्यामध्ये त्याच भाषेच्या किंवा हिंदी भाषा
    ज्ञात असलेला ड्रायव्हर पुरविण्यात यावा हीच अपेक्षा. आधी योगी फारच सुंदर ...आणि Ooty तर बेस्ट . कर्नाटका good ड्रायव्हर ड्रायव्हिंग वेरी गुड व्हेरी व्हेरी गुड

    Dhairyasheel Dabhade

    Dhairyasheel's 5 days trip to Tamil Nadu

    If it is a peak travel time, you can suggest us for some other off season time so we can change the plans accordingly.. due to peak time, the places were too crowded so could not visit some of the points.
