The best of Madurai walking tour

About this activity

Together with the professional guide, you will visit the most charming places in the city. You will have a chance to explore the city, while hearing fascinating facts and legends. Did you know that over time, Madurai came to be called the "Athens of the East" because of its similar architectural style? Also, Madurai is popularly called 'Thoonga Nagaram,' the city that never sleeps. But do you know why, though? That nickname justifiably describes its nightlife: what Madurai is proud about is its 24 hour market instead of nightclubs. You will be surprised how many stories are hidden in the streets, buildings and corners of Madurai. Your charming guide will tell you what is special and unique about living in this city. Perfect for those who are visiting the city for the first time and want to get the most of it!
