Wonderful trip that is an ideal way to travel from Bangalore to Goa whilst visiting the beautiful and diverse state of Karnataka. It's the ideal mix of city break, countryside, ancient history, and seaside laid-back vibes. The visits to Chitradurga Fort and Hampi were beautiful and the energy of modern, clean Bangalore so great! Our tour guides were overall friendly and great, special thanks to our driver Nagendra who looked after us like family. The warmth and kindness of Indians were the highlight of this trip! Organising team always responsive on whatsapp. Thank you!Show more
