Places to Visit in Kanchipuram
Ekambareswarar Temple
The largest temple in Kanchipuram and one of the five Pancha Bhoota Sthalams, where Shiva is worshipped as the element of earth in the form of a Prithvi Lingam. Its southern rajagopuram rises close to 60 metres and is among the tallest temple towers in Tamil Nadu. Inside, the sacred mango tree in the courtyard is linked to the legend of Parvati worshipping Shiva here, and each of its four branches is said to bear fruit of a different taste. The thousand-pillared hall and the long corridors of lingams make this the natural first stop of the day.

The thousand-pillared hall and the long corridors of lingams make this the natural first stop of the day.
Kamakshi Amman Temple
The presiding shrine of Kanchipuram and one of the most important Shakti Peethas in South India. Goddess Kamakshi is shown seated in a meditative posture, and a Sri Chakra installed before the deity is traditionally associated with Adi Shankaracharya. The temple sits at the centre of the old town and there are no other Devi shrines of significance inside Kanchipuram, which devotees see as a mark of Kamakshi's standing. Friday evenings bring special processions, and the golden chariot is a sight worth timing your visit around.
Kailasanathar Temple
The oldest standing structure in Kanchipuram, built in sandstone by the Pallava king Narasimhavarman II, also known as Rajasimha, around the late seventh and early eighth centuries. Unlike the busy living temples in town, it is quiet, compact and protected by the Archaeological Survey of India. The walls carry dozens of small shrines and weathered carvings of Shiva in many forms, and a narrow passage around the sanctum is believed by devotees to symbolise the cycle of birth. Photographers and history lovers often call it the highlight of the trip.
Varadaraja Perumal Temple
A Divya Desam of great importance to Vaishnavites, spread across a large complex in Vishnu Kanchi. The hundred-pillared hall is known for its detailed carvings and the stone chains cut from single blocks of granite. Visitors queue to touch the gold and silver lizard figures on the ceiling, believed to remove ill effects. The temple is also home to the wooden Athi Varadar idol, which rests in the temple tank and is brought out for public worship only once every forty years, most recently in 2019.
Vaikunta Perumal Temple
Built by the Pallava king Nandivarman II in the eighth century, this temple is unusual for its three-tier sanctum, with Vishnu shown standing, seated and reclining on successive levels. The cloister walls hold a long sequence of sculpted panels that record events from Pallava history, including coronations and battles, which makes it valuable to historians as well as pilgrims. It is smaller and calmer than the major shrines, and a good choice for a thoughtful half hour.
Ulagalantha Perumal Temple
Kanchi Kamakoti Peetham
The monastic seat traditionally believed to have been established by Adi Shankaracharya, and one of the most respected spiritual institutions in South India. Visitors come to seek blessings, attend the daily puja and see the samadhi shrines of earlier pontiffs. The atmosphere is reverent and orderly, and dress should be modest. It sits close to the Kamakshi Amman Temple, so the two are easily combined on foot once your driver drops you in the old town.
Kanchipuram Silk Weaving Centres
No visit is complete without seeing how the famous Kanchipuram silk saree is made. Weavers use pure mulberry silk with real zari, and the borders and pallu are often woven separately and interlocked by hand, a technique that gives these sarees their strength and weight. The Kanchipuram silk saree holds a Geographical Indication tag. For kanchipuram silk saree shopping, visit the government cooperative societies and established showrooms, ask for the silk mark certificate, and set aside at least two hours. Many weaving households also allow you to watch a loom at work.
Vedanthangal Bird Sanctuary
About 55 kilometres from Kanchipuram, Vedanthangal is one of the oldest bird sanctuaries in India, protected by local villagers long before it was formally notified. Between November and March, thousands of migratory birds including painted storks, spot-billed pelicans, cormorants and egrets nest on the trees standing in the lake. Early morning is best for sightings. With a cab of your own, it slots neatly into a two-day itinerary as a peaceful break from temple visits.

Bangalore
Departure Point
Your journey to Ooty begins from Bangalore, the gateway to South India's most beloved hill stations. Pick-up is available from any part of the city — Koramangala, Electronic City, Whitefield, Hebbal, Yeshwanthpur, Marathahalli, or Majestic. The most common route out of Bangalore takes you onto NH275, the six-lane Mysore Expressway, which is one of the smoothest and best-maintained national highways in Karnataka. An early departure between 5 AM and 6 AM is strongly advised to clear Bangalore city limits before peak traffic begins. The first 50 km on the expressway are fast, comfortable, and lightly trafficked in the early hours, setting a pleasant tone for the journey ahead. Our drivers are experienced in choosing the optimal departure window and route based on real-time traffic conditions, ensuring that the first stretch of your Bangalore to Ooty road trip is efficient, calm, and enjoyable from the very first kilometre.
Hosur
Little England
The trip begins on Hosur Road, past Bommanahalli and over the Electronic City elevated expressway, then through Chandapura and Attibele to the Karnataka and Tamil Nadu border. This short stretch sets the tone for the whole day. Leave before 6:00 AM and it takes under an hour; leave at 8:30 AM and office traffic can add another forty minutes. Hosur earned the nickname "Little England" during British rule because of its pleasant, cool climate, and today it is one of Tamil Nadu's major industrial towns, with large automobile and engineering plants along the highway. It is also a leading centre for cut-flower farming, especially roses grown for export. The Chandira Choodeswarar Temple sits on a hillock overlooking the town and is visible from the road. Your interstate permit is checked near the border, and our drivers handle the paperwork without you needing to step out. Most groups skip a halt here and push on while the road is clear, planning the first proper break at Krishnagiri. Elapsed time is roughly one hour.
Krishnagiri
Mango Capital of South India
After Hosur the highway widens and the landscape turns rocky, with granite boulders and small hillocks on both sides. Krishnagiri is known as the "Mango Capital of South India", and between April and July roadside stalls sell Alphonso, Banganapalli, Totapuri and Neelam mangoes straight from the orchards, usually far cheaper than in Bangalore. The town sits beneath the Syed Basha hill fort, and the Krishnagiri Reservoir lies a short distance off the highway. Krishnagiri is also a key junction where roads branch toward Dharmapuri, Salem and Tiruvannamalai, so traffic thickens around the bypass. This is the ideal breakfast halt. Highway restaurants here serve fresh idli, vada, pongal and filter coffee, and have clean restrooms suitable for families. Plan about thirty minutes and be back on the road by 7:30 AM. If you are travelling in mango season, ask your driver to point out a reliable stall; packed cartons travel well in the boot of an Innova. A toll plaza near Krishnagiri is the first of several on this route. Elapsed time is around two hours including breakfast.
Ambur
Biryani and Leather Town of Tamil Nadu
This long, fast stretch runs through the Palar river valley with the Javadhu Hills and Yelagiri range rising to the south and east. Vaniyambadi and Ambur together form the heart of Tamil Nadu's leather industry, and Ambur is widely called the "Biryani and Leather Town of Tamil Nadu". Tanneries and shoe factories line the outskirts, and much of the leather footwear sold in Europe starts life here. The town's name is equally tied to Ambur biryani, cooked with short-grain seeraga samba rice and a lighter spice blend than the Hyderabadi style, and served with brinjal curry and onion raita. Even at 10:00 AM, several well-known biryani houses near the highway are ready, and many travellers plan an early lunch on the return leg instead. Vaniyambadi is also the gateway to Yelagiri, a small hill station reached by fourteen hairpin bends, which makes a pleasant add-on for families on a longer itinerary. The Vaniyambadi toll plaza falls on this stretch. Elapsed time is about three and a half hours.
Vellore
Fort City
Twenty-five kilometres short of Vellore, the small town of Pallikonda is home to the Sri Uthara Ranganathaswamy Temple on the banks of the Palar, where Vishnu is shown reclining on the serpent Adisesha. Pallikonda literally means the one who reclines, and a short darshan here adds real value to a pilgrimage trip. Vellore itself is known as the "Fort City". The sixteenth-century Vellore Fort, with its deep moat and granite ramparts, is among the best preserved in South India and was the scene of the 1806 Vellore Mutiny, one of the earliest uprisings against the British. Inside the fort stands the Jalakandeswarar Temple, admired for its carved kalyana mandapam. About eight kilometres south of the city lies the Sripuram Golden Temple, the Sri Lakshmi Narayani temple whose sanctum is covered in gold and approached along a star-shaped path. Vellore is also known across India for the Christian Medical College hospital. Travellers searching for a bangalore to vellore golden temple cab often combine it with Kanchipuram on the same trip. Allow one to two hours here. Elapsed time is around four and a half hours without the halt.
Walajapet
Makkan Peda
A short, busy stretch across the Palar river. Arcot was once the capital of the Nawabs of the Carnatic and is best remembered in history for the Siege of Arcot in 1751, when Robert Clive held the fort, a turning point in the Anglo-French wars in South India. Little of the old citadel remains, but the Delhi Gate and a few mosques still stand. Arcot is famous for its "Makkan Peda", a rich sweet made with khoa and dry fruits and soaked in sugar syrup, and it is worth picking up a box from one of the old sweet shops. Neighbouring Walajapet, named after Nawab Muhammad Ali Walajah, grew as a trading town, while nearby Ranipet developed into a major leather and chemical industrial hub. The Chennasamudram toll plaza sits on this section of NH48. Traffic slows around the towns, so our drivers usually stick to the highway and turn off only if you have asked for the sweet stop. Elapsed time is about five hours.
Kanchipuram
City of a Thousand Temples
The final leg leaves the plains of Vellore district behind and enters the green, lake-dotted countryside of Kanchipuram district. Kaveripakkam, just off the highway, is known for its enormous old irrigation tank, one of the largest in the region, which fills with water birds after a good monsoon. The road then leaves NH48 and heads south into Kanchipuram, and the change is immediate. Gopurams appear above the rooftops, the lanes fill with silk shops and weaving households, and the rhythm of the town slows. Kanchipuram is the "City of a Thousand Temples" and the "Silk City of India", and the first tower most travellers see is the soaring gopuram of Ekambareswarar. If you arrive by 11:00 AM, you still have time for the Ekambareswarar and Kamakshi temples before the afternoon closure. Your driver can drop you at your hotel or directly at the first temple, then wait with the car while you explore. Total elapsed time on a smooth day is five and a half to six hours.

How to Book a Car for Rent in Bangalore — Step-by-Step
Booking a Car for hire in Bangalore with Tejas Travels takes under 5 minutes. Follow these 4 steps:
STEP1 | Contact Tejas Travels Call or WhatsApp +91 9980277773, or email info@tejastravels.com — available 24 hours, 7 days a week. Share your travel date, Bangalore pickup location (area or landmark — Whitefield, Electronic City, MG Road, Koramangala, KIA airport, hotel name, tech park), destination or full itinerary, number of passengers, and preferred vehicle. For KIA airport pickups, share the flight number — the driver tracks live flight status and adjusts pickup timing for delayed flights automatically. For luxury vehicles (Audi, BMW, Mercedes, Rolls-Royce), also mention the occasion — corporate, wedding, VIP event — so the team can ensure the best-condition vehicle and, where required, formal chauffeur attire. |
STEP2 | Receive Your Written Quote Within 2 hours of your enquiry, Tejas Travels sends a written quote via WhatsApp or email. The quote clearly itemizes every charge: vehicle hire rate (Rs/km or flat package), driver allowance (Rs 400-1,000/day depending on vehicle class), applicable toll estimates, and any interstate permit if applicable (Tamil Nadu for Ooty, Kerala for Wayanad, Andhra Pradesh for Tirupati). No verbal-only prices — everything in writing before you confirm. For corporate clients requiring reimbursements, a Proforma Invoice can be issued at this stage. If you want to compare two vehicle classes, request both quotes at the same time. |
STEP3 | Confirm Your Booking & Pay Advance Once satisfied with the written quote, confirm via WhatsApp or phone. A 15-20% advance payment confirms the booking. Payment: UPI (Google Pay, PhonePe, Paytm), NEFT/IMPS/RTGS bank transfer, or credit/debit card via payment link. Advance receipt within 30 minutes. Confirmation includes: driver name and mobile, vehicle registration, departure time, pickup location, and full billing breakdown — all in writing. For luxury vehicles (Rolls-Royce Ghost, BMW 7 Series, Mercedes S-Class), advance may be higher due to limited fleet and Bangalore peak-date demand (wedding season November-February, New Year). |
STEP4 | Your Driver Arrives Early Your assigned Tejas Travels driver arrives at your confirmed Bangalore pickup point 15 minutes before scheduled departure. For KIA airport transfers, the driver coordinates at the Arrivals gate. The vehicle is clean, sanitized, fuelled, and ready. For wedding and VIP bookings, the driver arrives in formal attire. The driver calls 30 minutes before arrival as a courtesy. During the trip, the driver handles all routing, toll payments, and Bangalore traffic navigation. At trip end, balance payment is settled after deducting the advance. Any additional km or hours are billed at the pre-agreed rate. |

Frequently Asked Questions — Bangalore to Kanchipuram Cab
The bangalore to kanchipuram distance is approximately 280 kilometres via NH48 through Hosur, Krishnagiri, Ambur, Vellore and Walajapet. Driving time is usually five and a half to six and a half hours each way. Leaving Bangalore between 5:00 AM and 6:00 AM avoids the worst of the Hosur Road traffic and gets you to Kanchipuram before the temples close for the afternoon.
Fares start from Rs 5,662 for an AC sedan such as the Etios or Dzire. Innova, with Innova Crysta, Fortuner and luxury cars priced higher. The fare includes base fare, fuel and driver allowance. Tolls, parking, the Tamil Nadu interstate tax, driver bata after 9:45 PM and GST are extra. Final billing is on total kilometres and hours from our garage to garage, and every charge is listed in the written quote you receive within 2 hours.
Yes, but it is a long day of around 560 kilometres and eleven to thirteen hours of driving. With a 5:00 AM start you can cover the main temples and return by late night. If you return after 9:45 PM, an additional driver bata applies. For a relaxed kanchipuram one day trip, we suggest limiting stops to Kanchipuram itself; if you want Vellore Golden Temple as well, a two-day plan works much better.
A 20 percent advance of the total fare confirms the booking. It can be paid by UPI, bank transfer or card, and a receipt is issued within 30 minutes. The balance is settled at the end of the trip. Luxury vehicles may need a higher advance during peak season.
Yes. Travelling from Karnataka into Tamil Nadu requires an interstate permit, which we arrange before departure and bill at actuals. The route also has several toll plazas on NH48, including those near Krishnagiri, Vaniyambadi and Chennasamudram. The driver pays tolls during the trip and they are added to your final bill at actual cost.
For up to four passengers, an Etios or Dzire is economical and comfortable. For five to seven passengers, or for families with elderly members and extra luggage, we recommend a bangalore to kanchipuram innova or Innova Crysta for the extra legroom. Larger families can choose a tempo traveller, and groups above twelve are better suited to a mini bus.
Yes. The car and driver stay with you for the full booking. Your driver will drop you at each temple, wait while you visit, take you to silk showrooms and cooperative stores, and bring you back. Waiting time is part of the trip hours, which are calculated garage to garage and shown in your quote.
A small advance of around 20 percent of the total fare is typically collected at the time of booking to secure the vehicle and driver allocation, with the remaining balance payable at
the end of the trip either in cash directly to the driver or online via a payment link.

Most major temples open early in the morning, around 6:00 AM, close from roughly 12:30 PM to 4:00 PM, and reopen until about 8:00 PM, though timings vary by temple and festival day. Modest traditional clothing is recommended, and some shrines have stricter dress rules. Our drivers plan the order of visits so you reach the major temples within their open hours.
