Self drive car & bike rental in Mandaikadu
Mandaikadu is a coastal temple town, quiet for most of the year and then very much not during the Kodai festival in March, when people come from across the district and well beyond it. A self drive car here is easiest booked ahead for those weeks, because everything is. We deliver to the door the rest of the year without any fuss.
Getting a vehicle in Mandaikadu
Mandaikadu is about 28 km from our base in Nagercoil, and we deliver rather than asking you to come and collect. Give us the address and a time; the vehicle arrives with its papers, a full tank noted down and the KM reading written in front of you.
During the festival the roads into Mandaikadu are closed or crawling for several days and parking is wherever you can find it, often a long walk from the temple. Anyone driving in for it should come early in the day and expect to leave the car further out than they would like. Outside those weeks the town is quiet and the coast road either side of it is one of the emptier drives in the district -- Colachel one way, the smaller fishing villages the other.
