Travel tips for your Chennai to Rameswaram journey
For the Ramanathaswamy Temple: Name your lodge or the temple's street as the drop: the streets near the Ramanathaswamy Temple are busy, and an exact stop helps the driver.
For the crossing to the island: The road reaches Pamban Island on the Annai Indira Gandhi Road Bridge, in a cyclone-prone zone. Check the weather warnings before you travel.
For Dhanushkodi: Dhanushkodi is beyond Rameswaram town. A drop there is a different trip: name it as the drop so the estimate covers it.
For trains and buses: Give Rameswaram railway station or the bus stand as your drop when you are connecting onwards.
