Experience Bangalore's Highlights & Hidden Gems - Lalbagh Botanical Garden, ISKCON Temple, Bangalore Fort, K R Market, Vidhana Soudha & Palace with a Guide. Enjoy a Traditional South Indian lunch.
If you seek a mere surface level sightseeing tour, this may not be for you. But if you wish a expertly guided exploration of the city’s deep historical and cultural roots, you’re in the right place. We pick you up after breakfast for a journey that is not just a tour, but the story of Bangalore—its transformation from obscurity to a modern metropolis.

We begin at the serene ISKCON Temple, where towering gopurams, gilded domes, and the sound of kirtans draw you into a world of devotion and grandeur. As you stroll through courtyards filled with incense and rhythmic chants, history, spirituality, and art converge in a vibrant yet serene atmosphere. Standing before the sanctum of Lord Krishna, a rare stillness washes over you, as if the city’s chaos dissolves into a moment of divine presence, setting the perfect tone for the day.

From here, we move to Bangalore Palace, where we explore the magnificent exteriors. Your guide reveals the story behind its Tudor-style architecture, its connection to the Wodeyar dynasty, and how its stately façade stands as a symbol of royal ambition, even as its interiors remain an avoidable curiosity.

Next, visit the majestic Vidhana Soudha, India’s largest state legislature building, where its imposing granite façade reveals a blend of Indian architectural styles and a story of civic pride. Across the road, the striking Pompeian-red Attara Kacheri, a colonial-era building housing the Karnataka High Court, offers a vivid contrast, blending history, law, and architectural grandeur at the heart of Bangalore.

We then arrive at Lalbagh Botanical Garden, one of South Asia’s foremost botanical spaces. Stroll through lush landscapes featuring Banyans, Araucarias, Ceibas, Plumerias, Cypresses, Saracas, and various timber and fruit trees. Marvel at the park’s geological wonder, regal statues, Victorian monuments, a serene lake and a variety of furry mammals and avians that call this park their home. Discover how this living museum captures the city’s journey from a princely capital to a modern metropolis.

By now, you’ll be ready for a culinary interlude, so we stop at MTR, a century-old institution where you skip the queue to enjoy a specially curated South Indian feast. As aromas and flavors unfold, your guide shares how food is deeply woven into the story of Bangalore.

Post-lunch, the journey continues to Bangalore Fort, where the modest remains hold more stories than any other part of the city. You admire massive teakwood doors studded with spikes and granite walls so masterfully built they invite comparisons to Machu Picchu, while hearing of the fierce 1791 Battle of Bangalore that shaped the city’s destiny.

The tour concludes at KR Market, the vibrant heart of old Bangalore. Amid a riot of colors, scents, and sounds, you witness traders continuing centuries-old traditions, making this bustling bazaar the perfect finale and leaving you with the living story of Bangalore itself.
