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.

Festivals

Pongal, the harvest festival of Tamils, is celebrated during the month of Thai in mid-January. Pongal is an important festival in Tamil Nadu, especially among the farmers. It is celebrated in Tamil Nadu over four days: Bogi Pongal, Uzhavar Thirunaal, Maatu Pongal, Kaanum Pongal. Natyanjali, celebrated in many Hindu Temples in Tamil Nadu, features classical Indian music and dance performances in February/March.

    Travel triangle agent Sanjana Sainik was pathetic. Very bad. Unresponsive and very arogant. I have multiple examples. I will never like to have her as my travel partner. However services from Comfort Destination was fantastic. I like the way they have planned the entire itenary. Hotels very very g
    ood. Cab was good. Our driver Sivaji was fantastic and the highlight of the tour. He really made us comfortable. Robin and Kiran were always available to help when required. Comfort destination and Travel Triangle plat form is excellent. However Sanjana Sainik executive from Travel Triangle was very arrogant and unresponsive. Shivaji cab driver was fantastic

    Nikhilngoythale

    Pune

    Nikhilngoythale's 5 days trip to Tamil Nadu

    The trip was good but could have been better or best if the hotel and points as per itternary for coorg could have been covered. The stay at ooty was very good and 70% of points as per itternary were covered. But as the stay in coorg was very unhigenic and location was very far which made driver to
    skip all the points in coorg except elephant camp and coffee plantation. The most important point is there was not coordination between All India Holiday and the travel agency about the no of day stay in ooty & coorg also the trip itternary was also not available with driver which made troublesome for me to convince him about which point he was about to cover.
