Beschrijving
Discover the birthplace of coffee in India on a private tour from Bangalore. Stay at a homestay in Chikmagalur, explore a coffee plantation, and enjoy a scenic drive to Mullayanagiri Peak.
Embark on a two-day private tour from Bangalore to Chikmagalur, the birthplace of coffee in India. Begin your journey with a stay at a homestay nestled within 50 acres of lush coffee plantations. Enjoy a welcome drink of rich, aromatic coffee brewed from the very beans that surround you.
On the first day, take a guided plantation tour and walk the life story of the coffee bean. Meander through shaded paths under a canopy of silver oak, where pepper vines cling to the trees like ancient secrets. Learn to distinguish the glossy green leaves of Arabica from the robust foliage of Robusta.
The next morning, ascend to Mullayanagiri, the highest peak in Karnataka. As you climb, feel the temperature drop and see the world unfurl below you. From the summit, standing at 6,330 feet, enjoy a breathtaking 360-degree panoramic view of rolling green hills fading into a blue haze.
Learn about the legend of Baba Budan, a Sufi saint who secretly carried seven coffee beans from Yemen to India in the 17th century, sowing the first plants on the forested slopes of Chikmagalur. Discover how the region grew into the cradle of Indian coffee, where Arabica thrived in the cool shade of the Western Ghats.
Enjoy the flexibility of a private tour, with a pace tailored to your interests. Benefit from a pick-up and drop-off at your Bangalore hotel in an air-conditioned vehicle.
