    If you’re okay with a bit of walking, you can take a local bus from the airport to the Chennai Central bus station and then hop on a 48 type bus that heads straight to Mahabalipuram. Those buses run roughly every 45 minutes after 4 pm, so you’ll be at the temple complex in about an hour and a half. The Chengalpattu train line only has a few departures before 6 pm, so a taxi is still the safest bet if you want to be there earlier.
