On Dec 26th, I did a Heritage Tour of Mylapore area in Chennai with Five Senses Tours. It was a great experience. We visited the famous Kapaleeshwar temple, Ramakrishna Math, Vivekananda House, Shirdi Saibaba temple, Santhome Cathedral Basilica and the Light House on Marina Beach. It was not exactly a walking tour (the tour was modified for me). I was picked up from my doorstep and dropped off at the same place. The guide was well informed and gave us the history and interesting facts of all the places visited. It was a spiritual experience and rounded off with a climb to the top of the Light House from which the view was breathtaking. I thoroughly enjoyed the tour and look forward to doing more such tours with Five Senses.

Vijay was a great tour guide. He offered some good background information and stories for the neighbourhood and temples visited. As a non-Hindu, this information was really useful to understand the place, practices, and art at the temples. A great way to spend a couple hours getting to know Chennai a bit better.
