We enjoyed our tour with Tharun. He told us a lot about the temple including practises and different stories about the gods that are worshipped.
He was also knowledgeable about local culture and great at answering various questions.

It was a brilliant tour, stunning dances, interesting temple, Tharon was a great guide. He explained very clearly the religious history of the temple. Nice walk to St Thomas. Tharon even taught me the correct way to eat off a palm leaf, right hand only.
