Description

Discover the royal charm of Mysore on a private tour from Bangalore. Visit Mysore Palace, Temple, explore Devaraja Market, and enjoy a traditional South Indian lunch.
Begin your day with a convenient pickup from your hotel in Bangalore. Travel in a comfortable, air-conditioned car to Mysore, where your first stop is the Ranganatha Swamy Temple. Admire the majestic Dravidian-style architecture, featuring intricately carved pillars, towering gopurams, and a peaceful sanctum where the deity rests on the divine serpent Adisesha.

Next, visit the Daria Daulat Bagh, Tipu Sultan’s Summer Palace. Surrounded by lush gardens, the palace showcases a stunning blend of Indo-Saracenic architecture and vibrant Mysore-style frescoes. Continue to the Gumbaz, a striking Islamic-style mausoleum built by Tipu Sultan in the late 18th century. It houses the tombs of Tipu Sultan, his father Hyder Ali, and mother Fakhr-Un-Nisa, making it a site of deep historical and cultural significance.

Then, head to Colonel Bailey’s Dungeon, a chilling underground prison built in the 18th century by Tipu Sultan. Named after British officer Colonel William Baillie, who died here in captivity, the dungeon offers a stark reminder of the Anglo-Mysore Wars.

Afterward, enjoy a traditional South Indian vegetarian lunch, thoughtfully prepared to offer authentic regional flavors.

Next, step into the grandeur of Amba Vilas Palace, famously known as Mysore Palace, the former residence of the Wodeyar dynasty and one of India’s most visited monuments. Built in 1912 in the Indo-Saracenic style, the palace blends Hindu, Muslim, Rajput, and Gothic architectural elements.

Finally, visit Devaraja Market, a 125+ year-old bazaar that pulses with the daily rhythm of Mysore. Located near the iconic Mysore Palace, this heritage market offers guests a colorful, aromatic, and authentic slice of local life.
