Before you go
Questions, answered.
What is the difference between the 2-day and 3-day Navagraha tours?
Both cover all nine temples. The 3-day tour has fewer temples per day and adds Kumbakonam, Swamimalai and Darasuram.
Can poojas be arranged at each temple?
Pooja and archana tickets are booked at each temple. We plan enough time at every stop.
Is Saturday a good day for Thirunallar?
Saturdays are the busiest at Thirunallar. A weekday visit is calmer.
