Bengaluru or Bangalore, it's one city and one great trip through its colonial past. I am ashamed to say that despite calling this city my home between 2003 and 2010, much of this tour was charting new ground for me.
That I didn't make more effort at the time was compensated by my excellent guide, Reha, who took us through Cubbon Park, via St Mark's Cathedral and then into Fraser Town. A super day out, and recommended. Cubbon Park is a joy, particularly early in the morning when the crowds are still asleep.
From booking to tour completion, Unhurried was exceptional! Highly recommend for first time visitors to take the Bangalore Day Tour - gain insights into the history, culture, architecture and food that makes this city special! It was a feast for all of the senses and gave me the confidence to continue to explore my new home solo! The tour was flexible- see something interesting along the way- they will explore it with you! The day felt like I was hanging out with my good friend all day! Communication was easy and organic! I cannot wait to book my next tour or two or three! 5 ⭐️ Recommending to all my friends and family!
Waking up Runab and myself early on a Saturday morning was totally worth it… we became tourists in our own city and the most wonderful time with Vidya of @unhurried… all the nuggets of info shared by Vidya were absolute gems and very enlightening… would highly recommend them to anyone who wants to learn about Bangalore and Mysore
Vidya was a great guide! She probably knows everything there is to know about the area - both historical and current developments. With her open-minded and friendly manner, she shares her knowledge with you, showing you the temples and other interesting buildings and streets, including a snack break. At the end, you feel like you've learnt a lot while chatting with a friend. Definitely recommended!
We had an exciting & wonderful morning walk at Lalbagh botanical Garden guided by Ms Vidya Nilakantan our heritage & nature guide based at Bangalore. Thank to my classmate Dr Prathima Radhakrishnan as she arranged this lovely morning walk. We were accompanied by our another classmate Ms Kumud Singh and we all have enjoyed this walk very much as Vidya could explain so nicely the historical and the background of this botanical Garden right from its early days to the present one. The knowledge she had was superb and we could partly pick up from her and were memerised with the information she gave about this Garden and other vital information about Bangalore and Karnataka. We highly recommend all the nature lovers to take up this lovely walk as you reach Bengaluru or you plan to be in Bengaluru next time. Wishing you all a wonderful times ahead regards Vara prasad a nature enthusiastic.
