Chennai   02-Sep-2010

The Tamil Nadu Tourism Development Corporation's (TTDC) largesse in extending special concession on its tours and hotel tariff for senior citizens and women is now being extended to cover IndianOil's (IOC) Xtrareward cardholders.
 
In a special gesture, the TTDC has decided to provide 15 and 10 per cent concessions on its hotel tariff and tours for the cardholders. "This facility would be offered at all the 54 properties of the TTDC spread across the state and parts of the country. Ten per cent concession would also be provided to the cardholders who avail the regular tours of the corporation except the daily Tirupathi and rail-cum-road tours," TTDC's managing director A.C Mohandoss said.

Speaking at a function of signing a memorandum of understanding between the two corporations here on Wednesday, Mr Mohandoss said though discount on package tours was not mentioned in the MoU, he had announced it as a special gesture.

The tours and also the department's revamped website were becoming popular. Over four lakh persons from as many as 38 countries had visited the virtual tours gallery on the website: www.tamilnadutourism.org, he said.
