The Mahabalipuram bus stand is roughly 2.5 km from the Five Rathas, so a local bus or auto will get you there in about 10 12 minutes. Chengalpattu railway station is a bit farther, around 12 km away, and the nearest train to the temple area runs only a couple of times a day; the last departure from Chennai at 18:30 would be too late. A taxi or app based cab from the airport is the quickest and most reliable option after 16:00.
