Tamil Nadu is one of the first states in India and is rich in cultural legacy and travel destinations. For example, its capital, Chennai, is home to some of the country’s oldest artistic traditions. It’s also popular for its temples, beaches, filter coffee and Bharatnatyam. Self-drive car hire in most of Tamil Nadu’s cities is a wise solution to experience this state, which promises a diverse spectrum of beauty. Tamil Nadu car hire companies give you a chance to choose your preferred vehicle and immerse yourself fully in the fun without worrying about fuel charges and public transport schedules. Connect to major attractions such as Guindy Railway Over Bridge, Kamraj Memorial Hall and the Thousand Lights Mosque using the popular Anna Salai route. Car hire is a convenient and flexible means to travel around Tamil Nadu, and with the public transportation system's strict schedule, a hire car can bridge the gap by fitting to your preferred program and route. Moreover, a hire car will help you in getting around quickly and easily.

In addition to the long history of its inhabitants, Tamil Nadu is most popular for its festivals, temples and various cultural celebrations. The Hindu shrines and monuments in Mamallapuram are also well-known tourist destinations. Being surrounded by key states of India, Tamil Nadu boasts a widespread network of roads that connect to some of the major cities, ports and popular tourist destinations. It’s important to be vigilant for safety purposes, as you might encounter some poor quality roads, with lots of potholes and rough patchwork, in some parts of the state. Tamil Nadu has fairly hassle-free and pocket-friendly parking services, especially with the smart parking scheme being enforced in the capital city, Chennai. The state boasts great traffic flow despite having one of the highest vehicle volumes in the country. Nonetheless, the major roads leading to the capital’s CBD are usually very congested during rush hours.

You must be 21 years old and above to hire a vehicle in Tamil Nadu. Some Tamil Nadu car hire companies, however, require one to be older to hire some types of vehicles, such as luxury and exotic models.
