Cần Quan Tâm

Kanchipuram was the capital of the medieval South Indian Kingdom of Pallavas. The Pallavas were instrumental in the transition from rock-cut architecture to stone temples. We visit Kailasanathar temple of Pallava dynasty to appreciate these architectural wonders built in the 7th century by by Pallava king Rajasimha known as Narasimhavarman II. The Kanchi Kailasanathar temple is famous for its magnificent Vimana, the gopuram over the Sanctum Sanctorum. It speaks volumes of architectural beauty that flourished in the reign of Pallava King.

Cannan was an informative, engaging tour guide. We visited two incredible temples and had a delicious South Indian vegetarian lunch. I’d highly recommend booking this excursion!

The best thing I enjoyed from this tour was learning about the south indian history and cultures related to temples. As a foreigner, I always had a doubt of whether I am being not aporopriate or not following the rules or about temple manners. All of my curiosity had been solved today. Thank you Kannan

My sister and I had such a wonderful time with Kannan, whose knowledge and storytelling instantly captivated us . We not only explored the temples and silk factories, we got to learn the historical and spiritual significance of the city itself. If you wish to take some magnificent photos, explore and make memories in Kanchipuram, look no further, Kannan is your guide.

It was a very interesting trip. Harri picked us up from our hotel right on time, and on the way to Kanchipuram we stopped for a quick lunch. The temple visits were fascinating and, luckily, not too crowded. The car rides between the different places were also memorable, we had some great conversations along the way. The silk weaving process at the factory was interesting, although unfortunately quite short. It quickly led into a showroom where high-quality silk saris were presented for sale.

"I booked a Kanchipuram tour for my parents, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the moment they started, Mr Hareesh Ramachandran took exceptional care of them. They were deeply impressed by his/her profound knowledge of the temple architecture and the city's history. Beyond just the facts, it was the patience and genuine care shown toward them as senior travelers that made this trip truly special. If you want a guide who is both an expert and a true professional, look no further. Highly recommended!"

We went to Kanjepuram on the 25 th December and our tour guide was Kannan. He was very knowledgeable and explained everything in detail to us. We went with children and he was very good with them which made us feel comfortable. We also went to a weaving place to see how Kanjipuysarees are weaved and ended up buying some sarees. Good experience, He also took us to Vivekananda house which was extra. We were all fascinated by swami Vivekananda’s history and the museum. I think it is a must to see in Chennai. Overall a very good and pleasant experience. Thanks to Kannan and five senses tours. Well done. Highly recommend this private tour! Sakuntala

We had a great family trip with Kannan to Kanchipuram, he is clearly a very knowledgeable guide and delivered the content in a manner suitable for our young family, in an interesting way. He knew the areas and timings to help us maximise our time. Despite going on christmas and having maximum crowds at one of the temples, he kindly added an extra stop at Vivekananda house to make our day more complete.

Fantastic day out Kanchipuram, with a wonderful knowledgable guide, Mr Natarajan. The tour was able to be adapted to suit our requirements which was one of the reasons for choosing 5 Senses, as well as their previous great experience and service. Our guide was a knowledgeable and friendly man, Mr Natarajan, took the time to explain in depth the history.
