On the way the tour will touch tourist spots like Kallar and Golden Valley before reaching the Upper Sanatorium and the Guest House at Ponmudi. And the tour programme to Kovalam will cover the Light House beach, Samudra beach, Eve's beach, the nearby Vizhinjam harbour and the Parasurama Temple at Thiruvallom.
