Madurai Food Tasting Tour: 5-6 Local StopsThis food tasting tour takes you across Madurai to eat at 5 to 6 local spots where the city's own people eat, with hotel pickup, a guide who speaks English, and three to four hours of snacks, beverages and a dinner included. You'll taste signature Madurai dishes like paruthipaal, bun parotta and Jil Jil Jigar Thanda, walk the streets around the tank near Thirumalai Nayakar Mahal, and eat from food carts and eateries off the usual tourist routes. Inform the operator about any food allergies before the tour starts.Is it for me?The three to four hour window fits into a half-day without eating up the rest of your schedule — book it in the morning and you have the afternoon free, or in the afternoon and the evening is yours. If you want to sit down for a full restaurant meal, this is not the right tour; if you want to eat the way Madurai does, moving from stop to stop, this one is built for that.
