The Mahabalipuram tour was a cultural and historical delight. The UNESCO World Heritage site showcased stunning ancient rock-cut temples and intricate sculptures that left me in awe. The knowledgeable guide shared fascinating insights into the history and significance of each monument. The beautiful coastal setting added to the charm of the experience. It was a memorable day that offered a glimpse into India's rich heritage and craftsmanship.
