Madurai Nachtführung

Dhanabalan was a very friendly guide. With only a small group of visitors, the tour was very interactive. Dhanabalan’s explanations were interesting, comprehensive and accurate, both before and during the ceremony. A magnificent ceremony. He was also very helpful beyond the tour itself, offering suggestions for other places of interest. I highly recommend it.

Great tour!

Dhanabalan picked me up on point and then we went into the temple. I learned a lot, from basics to detailed information you just can get from a local. Without him I would be lost in this big temple complex and wouldn't understand a lot of things. Thank you for your time and I wish you the best.

I would just like to express my gratitude to Dhanabalan. He took me into the temple where I was so out of my depth and comfort zone. He explained really well the, in my opinion, such complex and complicated aspects of Hinduism. The temple itself is amazing and the people so friendly and welcoming. Thank you for such a lovely evening sir.

Dhanabalan was an extraordinary tour guide. He was really friendly, knowledgeable and professional. His English is perfect and you can see he really loves sharing his culture. We really enjoyed the night ceremony and definitely recommend doing it with Dhanabalan. He knew exactly where to stand and where to go to see it without hassle. It was a great experience and having Dhanabalan there made it a lot better. 10/10

We had a nice experience with the ceremony in the Meenakshi Amman Temple. Dhanabalan is friendly and enthusiastic in his storytelling. It is clear that he has a passion for his city, state and language. He introduces what the ceremony is about, and explains the steps, before you witness it yourself. That is good, because during the ceremony itself there's not really the occasion to talk about it. The ceremony feels a bit chaotic, with many people around, some movements from one place to another, and sometimes it's difficult to see exactly what is happening if other people are blocking the view. Afterwards Dhanabalan answers any leftover questions, regarding the ceremony, things to do in Madurai or any other questions. He also gives some nice recommendations, which is really valuable.

We enjoyed and learned a lot from Dhabalan in the ceremony tour. It was super interesting, super proffessional and realy good experiance. We also got great tips for our other trips. We highly recommend !!

Fantastic and unique experience! I really felt blessed to have experienced the night ceremony and had such a great guide to explain it all. Dhanabalan knew the best spots to witness the ceremony first hand and gave so much valuable information. Simple excellent. Don't miss the experience with Dhanabalan when you are in Madurai. Then you can go the next day to visit the temple and the thousands pillars at your own pace, it is unmissable while in Tamil Nadu.

One of the best tours on our trip to India. Very well explained, we learned a lot, and the English was excellent. We are very grateful and highly recommend it.

Dit is een top guru gids. We hielden van zijn passie en kennis waarmee hij 3 Belgische toeristen meedroeg in het verhaal van deze ceremonie van 'het naar bed brengen van de goden' tijdens het bezoek aan de Meenakschi tempel in Madurai. Hij contacteerde ons ook om de afspraak praktische vast te leggen en begeleide ons vanaf het hotel en weer terug. Moe maar voldaan, deze uitstap is zeker een aanrader. Grtz 3 toeristen van België

The evening ceremony tour was an incredible experience! Dhanabalan explained everything that was happening and made sure I was always in the right place to see everything that was happening. I highly recommend taking the tour with him so you can really get the most out of this amazing event.

One of the thing you must do in Madurai! Dhanabalan knows very well the temple and can explain a lot about the Tamil culture and religion. Very worthy experience

La visite avec Dhanabalan était très intéressante et nous avons appris énormément de choses. Il a répondu à l'ensemble de nos questions et a pris le temps pour que tout le monde comprenne les explications.

The experience was very enriching. Got very good information from the guide.

We went on a tour with Dhanabalan and it was an amazing experience. He provided all the information to understand the context and connectivity of Indian culture and different religious aspects. His hospitality was very wide,he took care of all the thinhs on the tour. He also recomended good places to eat. We would highly reccomend him as a tour guide!

Dhana really is the best guide I have ever had . He is a wealth of information and enthusiasm and tailored the tours to suit myself and my daughter . Nothing was rushed and he let us take our time He also arranged a rickshaw tour around the back streets of Madurai and the outskirts to see how people really live . He helped us find a local massage therapist and gave us advice in restaurants He went out of his way to help us both during our tours and in between . Definitely book hun Thank you Dhana

Me and my friend really enjoyed the Temple Evening Ceremony Tour with Dhanabalan. He explained a lot about the cultural and spiritual meanings of the temple. Dhanabalan made sure that we had a good view of the ceremony inside the temple. It was very interesting and fun to do, a must during travel in Madurai!
