 Travel
to Karnataka can be an exhilarating and enthralling
experience with our specialized tour packages for travel
to Karnataka. A state with intriguing extremes that
blends to form a kaleidoscope of adventure sports -
trekking, paragliding, river-rafting; panoramic views
of spice plantations, wildlife sanctuaries and quaint
beaches; and the nostalgia of historical marvels - mosques,
Jain monuments, Hindu temples and Cathedrals - inter
spread with wild theme pub nights.
Karnataka is flanked by the evergreen Western Ghats
on the east, the playful Arabian Sea on the west and
the semiarid Deccan Plateau to the north, thus providing
for an assortment of entertainment options for the traveler
at heart. Travel to Karnataka, whether in summer or
winter, is like returning to spring with occasional
refreshing showers to brighten the spirits.
Places of Interest in Karnataka:
Bangalore - The science
and technology capital of India today, it was a fortress
city under the reign of Hyder Ali and Tipu Sultan. Nicknamed
the 'garden city', it is truly cosmopolitan in nature,
thriving on the energy of the youth and heralding the
emergence of untried business ideas from café coffee
day to theme pubs and fast-food joints. Explore the
city's pulsating corners where no subject is taboo with
our special tour packages for travel to Karnataka.
Mysore - known for its
silk, sandalwood and rich heritage; the Mysore palace
with its festivities and regal gardens, under the influence
of intoxicating incense laden air, amidst clear weather
and pleasant climate, mark a favorite spot for tourists
year round.
Mangalore - A university
town with charming people and picturesque landscapes,
its predominant Catholic community dates back to the
Portuguese arrival in 1526. A coffee exporting center,
it offers a progressive ambiance for the travels to
relax and breathe easy.
Hampi - A bicycle ride
or an early morning walk around the ancient ruins of
Vijaynagar, is sufficient to sight this nostalgic reminder
of forgotten civilizations as the reluctant air stands
still to let the visitors revel in the past. Visit Hampi
in the first week of November to participate in the
unforgettable Vijaya Utsav festival with our tour packages
for travel to Kanataka.
Coorg - A hill station
that leaves you breathless. Wide expanses of evergreen
mountains in the distance; the air flavored with aroma
of coffee beans, spices and herbs, exotic flowers unheard
of before drape the roadsides. Its perennially cool
weather, an interesting past of struggle for autonomy,
the colorful Huthri festival and seamless trekking opportunities
are worth any day under the sun.
Wildlife Sanctuaries in Karnataka:
Bandipur National Park -
Spread over 880 sq km of endangered flora and fauna,
it is part of a bigger national park that encompasses
the wildlife sanctuaries of Mudumalai in Tamil Nadu
and Wayanad in Kerala. Here you can find herds of Indian
bison, spotted deer, elephants, samber, panthers, sloth
bears and langur. If you're lucky, you may even spot
an elusive tiger on the bus tour.
Nagarhole National Park -
Popularly known as the Rajiv Gandhi National Park, its
643 sq km of deciduous and evergreen forests provide
a home to several endangered species of animals. You're
far more likely to stumble upon a gaur and munjacs (barking
deer), wild dogs, bonnet macaques than spot a tiger,
leopard or even an elephant hiding behind the lush green
covers.

falls - a waterfall on the river Sharavati, it
splendor is most evident in the months of monsoon when
