Crocodile park at Mahabalipuram

Nice place but not properly maintained, water was stinking because of which standing their was quite uncomfortable. Can be made much better if good flowering plants are planted

Response from the operator: Dear Guest, Thanks for sharing your concern. We will definitely take it up to the Crocodile park management to review their standard. However as you know it is out of our control and for this you have marked our service as 3 Star. May i request you to change it and do travel with us near future !

Private Madras Crocodile Bank Tour from Mahabalipuram: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Chennai.

How much does Private Madras Crocodile Bank Tour from Mahabalipuram cost?

+

Prices start at $30 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Chennai usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does Private Madras Crocodile Bank Tour from Mahabalipuram take?

+

Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Chennai is not rushed.

Is Private Madras Crocodile Bank Tour from Mahabalipuram worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Chennai, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Private Madras Crocodile Bank Tour from Mahabalipuram?

+

Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

Is Private Madras Crocodile Bank Tour from Mahabalipuram suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 15. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 3-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Private Madras Crocodile Bank Tour from Mahabalipuram?

+

Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Chennai can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

What should I bring or wear?

+

Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Chennai and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Private Madras Crocodile Bank Tour from Mahabalipuram start and how do I get there?

+

The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Chennai within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

What are the best things to do in Chennai?

+

On Outty we rank every Chennai experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Mahabalipuram tour by Tourism Ministry approved company, Chennai tour in car with guide-winner of traveller's choice award, Gods of Mylapore walking tour: Journey Through Living Traditions. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

When is the best time to visit Chennai?

+

Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

How many days do you need in Chennai?

+

Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

+

Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
