How to get there by Air
All the larger cities in Tamil Nadu have airports, though most cater only to domestic traffic. Chennai’s Meenambakkam gets international flights and there are flights to Tiruchirapalli from Colombo, Sri Lanka. The other cities with airports are Madurai and Coimbatore. Taxis, city-airport bus shuttles and auto rickshaws are available outside the main terminus.

How to get there by Rail
There is no dearth of options if you are travelling by rail. The major railheads are Chennai, Madurai, Tiruchirapalli and Coimbatore. There are trains to these cities from all over the country. In most cases it’s possible to catch a connection to the temple towns that figure less prominently on the countrywide network from these cities.

How to get there by Road
India has an extensive road network. These roads are hardly wide superhighways with multiple lanes of fast moving traffic but they do go here, there and everywhere and so they do serve the purpose of taking people where they want to go. To go with the extensive road network is the extensive network of buses and taxis, which too (in most cases) go here, there and everywhere. If you are generally in south India i.e. the states of Kerala, Karnataka or Andhra Pradesh, all of which border Tamil Nadu, you can take the road. There are many numbers of state-run buses and privately run coaches to cities in Tamil Nadu. Do keep in mind the distance you’re undertaking to cover; more often than not these journeys are uncomfortable. Hired vehicles are definitely a more comfortable option if you are planning to get to Tamil Nadu by road.
