What's the itinerary?+
• Pickup will occur at your hotel in Kovalam in the morning. The journey to Kanyakumari, located 55 miles away, will take approximately two and a half hours. Upon arrival in Kanyakumari, visit the 3000-year-old Kumari Amman Temple by the seashore, which honors the virgin Goddess Kanyakumari, believed to have defeated a demon at this location. • Proceed to the Vivekananda Rock Memorial, situated on an island near the coast. It was here that philosopher Swami Vivekananda decided to spread his teachings after meditating. Lunch will be provided at a local restaurant (beverages not included). • After lunch, go to the Gandhi Memorial. Designed like a temple, it is located by the sea at the site where his ashes were displayed before being scattered in the ocean. This architectural marvel aligns so that on October 2nd, Gandhi's birth anniversary, sunlight falls on the exact spot where the urn was kept. • Following this, take a ferry to the nearby island housing the 133-foot statue of Thiruvalluvar, a notable Tamil poet and philosopher. This monumental statue was completed by 5,000 sculptors and weighs over 14 million pounds, symbolizing the 133 chapters of Thirukkural, the poet’s renowned work. Watch the vibrant sunset by the ocean's edge before concluding your visit to Kanyakumari. After the tour, you will be returned to Kovalam and dropped off at your hotel.
