Top 5 Places to Visit Near Chennai in a 24-Seater Tempo Traveller (2026 Rates)
Chennai's location at the heart of southern India makes it the perfect launchpad for short group getaways. With a 24-seater Tempo Traveller hire from Raghavarshini Tours & Travels you keep the whole family or office team together, share the trip door-to-door, and split costs across the seats — typically 40–50% cheaper per head than booking multiple cabs. Our indicative outstation rate is ₹22/km (24-seater A/C) with a 300 km minimum per day, driver Bata ₹500, and toll/parking at actuals.
1. Pondicherry — 160 km, ~3 hours via ECR. One-day Tempo Traveller package from approximately ₹13,500 (24-seater, return same day). The East Coast Road drive is half the experience, and the colonial White Town is best explored as a tight group on foot.
2. Mahabalipuram — 60 km, ~1.5 hours. Half-day Tempo Traveller disposal package from around ₹6,800. UNESCO shore temples, the Five Rathas and a seafood lunch make this the easiest day trip from Chennai — popular for school, college and corporate teams.
