Junkone, I could not understand the 'chennai - backwaters' part of it.
However, a suggested itinerary is: - Leave for Madurai overnight from chennai (supposing you start at chennai) and spend the next 1/2 day(s) at Madurai visiting the temples - Proceed to Kanyakumari from Madurai (240 kms/ 4-5 hours by road) and spend a day there - Leave for trivandrum by road (2 hours) and visit Padmanabhda temple and other temples/palaces as a day tour from Trivandrum - From Trivandrum, you can proceed to Allepey (4 hours)for a backwater cruise |
