Kanyakumari at 700 km is the longest single-destination run from our Chennai hub, and almost nobody books it as a point-to-point. The sensible format is a loop that takes in Madurai and Rameshwaram on the way down and returns via Kanyakumari's temple coast, which is how we quote it by default.
This is a 1,800 km circuit across five days, so seat comfort outweighs every other consideration. The 12+1 MWB with reclining seats is our standard recommendation; groups wanting a genuinely restful long-haul experience should look at the Executive Lounge variant instead.
Force Urbania Rental for the Chennai to Kanyakumari Route
At 1,800 km round trip this is the longest Urbania rental we quote from Chennai, and seat comfort is the only consideration that really matters. The 12+1 MWB Force Urbania hire covers most groups well; for VIP or elderly parties the Executive Lounge with captain recliners is worth the premium over five days. There are no ghat sections on this circuit, so wheelbase is not a constraint — book on comfort and luggage capacity rather than manoeuvrability.
About Kanyakumari
Kanyakumari is the southernmost point of mainland India, where the Bay of Bengal, the Arabian Sea and the Indian Ocean meet — and the only place in the country where you can watch the sun rise and set over the sea from the same spot. Offshore stand the Vivekananda Rock Memorial, where Swami Vivekananda meditated in 1892, and the 133-foot Thiruvalluvar statue. Inland lie the Kumari Amman temple, the Suchindram temple with its musical pillars, and Padmanabhapuram Palace, the largest wooden palace in Asia.
