• 5Great full-day tour!

  The guide (Naveen) was very knowledgeable about the city and history. He knew a lot about every place we visited. He was always asking if we were walking too much or if I needed a food/drink break. He took me to two great spots for food and chai. He was very flexible when I wanted to adjust the tour a little! Overall a great experience.

About Bangalore

Bangalore, or Bengaluru, is the garden city of southern India, a technology hub of parks, palaces, pubs and filter coffee on a cool plateau.

Bengaluru, long known in English as Bangalore, is the capital of Karnataka and sits on a plateau about 900 metres up, which gives it a mild climate. The city's nickname, the Garden City, comes from public parks like Cubbon Park and the Lalbagh Botanical Garden, where a glasshouse modelled on London's Crystal Palace holds flower shows. The Vidhana Soudha, the state legislature, is one of its grandest buildings.

Top-ranked sights in Bangalore: Vidhana Soudha, KR Market (Krishnarajendra City Market), Lalbagh Botanical Gardens.
