Cần Quan Tâm
ISKCON Bangalore, Sri Sri Lakshmi Narasimha Temple
Please note: On this tour, we visit one of the two temples listed — ISKCON Temple or the Bull Temple. As you step into the ISKCON Temple along with our erudite guide, you are immediately enveloped in a sense of grandeur, where soaring gopurams and gilded domes glisten under the sunlight. You walk through vast courtyards filled with the sound of kirtans, the aroma of incense, and the sight of devotees moving in rhythmic devotion, creating an atmosphere both vibrant and serene. As you stand before the sanctum of Lord Krishna, you feel a rare stillness wash over you, as if the chaos of the city has dissolved into a moment of divine presence.
Bangalore Palace
As you arrive at Bangalore Palace, your guide leads you around its ivy-draped walls, turreted towers, and arched windows, pointing out details that reveal the Wodeyar’s fascination with English-style grandeur. You pause to take in the imposing façade, its battlements and balconies narrating a story of power and prestige borrowed from Europe yet rooted in Bangalore’s own royal legacy. On this tour, you explore the exteriors of the monument, where the palace’s true charm lies in its stately presence and architectural intrigue. Please note: Bangalore Palace is closed on Mondays. On those days, we will instead explore Tipu Sultan’s Summer Palace.

Unforgettable Tour With an Exceptional Guide

5.00I’ve been to Bangalore a number of times, but always for work. For the most part, has been a lot of hotel to office, office back to hotel, traffic and sites mainly from the lengthy Uber rides on Outer Ring Road. I honestly thought I “understood” the city based on those trips. Then I booked this tour with Praveen, and it completely rewrote everything I thought I understood about Bangalore. I had a full Saturday open because of a late flight, and was traveling solo, so I wasn’t sure what to expect, but the experience ended up being one of the best things I’ve ever done in India. Praveen was fantastic. He’s funny, had complete control of the tour, and has this incredible and natural way of explaining the background and history behind the sites that makes you want to hang onto every word. He took our small group through parts of the city I didn’t even know existed, from the older neighborhoods to the incredible KR Market, which was honestly overwhelming in the best possible way. The sights, the sounds, the smells…it felt like stepping into the past. And visiting places like Lalbagh Gardens and Bull Temple felt totally different when you’re with someone who can tell the stories behind what you’re looking at. My favorite part of course was lunch. MTR is well known, but good luck getting in there. So sitting down for that full authentic South Indian meal while skipping the massive line was a highlight all by itself. If you’re visiting Bangalore, whether it’s your first time or your tenth, try to make time for this tour. Praveen will show you a version of Bangalore you won’t find on your own, and you’ll walk away with a whole new appreciation for this city. I can’t recommend it enough.

5.00Praveen is fantastic and he has setup an equally fantastic business that conducts tours that are truly a joy! He is articulate and the commentary is sophisticated. He chose to mix up “pretty” places with a quick dose of the somewhat gritty - which in my mind made the experience very enjoyable.
Loved it.

5.00We had an amazing day touring with Praveen and his guests. The sites matched the descriptions perfectly and were brought to life by Praveen's captivating stories. He was entertaining, knowledgeable, and answered all our questions. Praveen made the experience special and immersive with thoughtful touches like drinks, fruits, flowers, feeding monkeys, photos, and a delightful lunch. The operational team and drivers deserve commendation as well. After making the reservation, I received detailed WhatsApp messages about the hotel pick-up, vehicle, and driver. The transportation between destinations was seamless and safe. If you're traveling to Bangalore for business, I highly recommend staying an extra day to enjoy a tour with Praveen.

5.00I had a fantastic day with Praveen and his tour of Bangalore. Being my first time in the city, I was hoping for an immersion into the life, history and culture of the city and Praveen delivered so much more. His excitement and encyclopedic knowledge made every stop and each question delightful. I couldn't reccomend this tour enough, it's absolutely fantastic!
