Default South India trip

I might spend a couple of weeks in Southern India, coming from Malaysia.
I noticed that Airasia has flights to a place called Tiruchirappalli
(TRZ) somewhere in Tamil Nadu.

It should be possible in a couple of weeks to cover a number of places
in the region. I guess Mysore should be one of those, but what else are
the highlights?
I'm interested in cultural and historic stuff, but also in nice
sceneries, even wouldn't mind making a stop in a national park if it was
interesting.

Regarding local transportation, how much would it cost to hire a
car+driver?

Thanks, I know about that site. Used it to plan the India trip of 2004.

You might want to look up Mahaballipuram, Halebid and Belur; Coorg; Kochi,
the backwaters and Wayanad in Kerala; and Pondicherry. I just went to Karwar
(Karnataka) and Agonda (Goa). Nice coastal scenery.
