Trichy Airport to Thanjavur taxi
Fixed-fare private transfer from Tiruchirappalli International Airport (TRZ) to any Thanjavur hotel, with flight tracking and 60 minutes of free waiting.
This is the journey almost every visitor to Thanjavur makes first. Tiruchirappalli International Airport is the nearest airport to the Chola delta, and the road east to Thanjavur is about 60 km of decent highway — normally an hour and a half, longer if you land into evening traffic through Trichy.
We track the flight rather than the booking time, so an aircraft that arrives two hours late does not leave you paying for waiting you did not cause. The driver waits 60 minutes free after landing, which is enough for baggage and immigration on a domestic arrival. The fare is fixed at booking: no meter, no night surcharge, no per-bag charge.
If you would rather break the journey, Srirangam and the Rockfort are both in Trichy and can be added on the way through. Tell us when you book so the driver plans for it — it is not something to negotiate at the kerb.
Trichy Airport to Thanjavur: your questions
How much is a taxi from Trichy airport to Thanjavur?
We charge a fixed fare set at the time of booking, shown on this page for each vehicle. It covers tolls and the driver's allowance, and it does not change if the flight is late.
How long does the drive take?
About an hour and a half for roughly 60 km. Allow longer if you land in the evening, when the road through Trichy is slower.
What happens if my flight is delayed?
The driver tracks the flight and comes for the actual arrival time. Waiting is free for 60 minutes after you land.
Can the driver stop at Srirangam on the way?
Yes, if you ask when booking. Srirangam and the Rockfort are both in Trichy, and adding them on the way saves a separate trip back later.
