Madurai Airport (IXM) to Theni Taxi Service
Landing at Madurai International Airport (IXM)? HJ Cabs runs the 70 km transfer to Theni every day, with air-conditioned Sedans, SUVs, and Innova Crystas driven by licensed, verified drivers. Agricultural hub connectivity, en route to Munnar via Bodinayakkanur.
Theni is the headquarters of Theni district in southern Tamil Nadu, set at the foot of the Western Ghats around 80 km west of Madurai on NH 85 and roughly 95 km northeast of Munnar. The town is built around the Theni Cardamom Market, a major regional trading hub where cardamom grown in the Bodi and Kumily hill estates is auctioned, alongside table grapes from the vineyards that surround the town and supply markets across Tamil Nadu. This cardamom-and-grape economy peaks during the harvest and auction season each year, making Theni an important agricultural trading centre rather than an industrial one. Its position at the base of the ghats also makes it the principal gateway to Kerala's Thekkady and Periyar region via the Bodi-Kumily route, putting it on the route for travellers heading into the hill country. The surrounding district blends plains agriculture with hill-foot plantation farming.
