Why hire a car with a driver here
Salem is a busy junction city known for its steel, textiles and mangoes, and many visitors come for business or family events. It also sits at the foot of Yercaud, the Shevaroy Hills retreat just an hour's climb away. A car with a driver handles the city's traffic and parking, and takes the Yercaud ghat's hairpin bends with ease. Salem is also a convenient base for Hogenakkal Falls, Mettur Dam and the temples at Tiruchengode.
