Das Beste von Nandi Hills und Lepakshi an einem Tag

We had an amazing day seeing the sites around Nandi Hills and Lepakshi! We visited several temples and saw some amazing sculpture and engineering in the temple designs. The great thing about this tour was the combination of visiting historical sites and being out in nature at the Nandi Hills---the perfect combination of cultural heritage and peaceful surroundings. I would definitely recommend the tour for anyone traveling to Bangalore.

This was a wonderful day tour for us. If you are interested in history, architecture or geology, you will really enjoy this tour. One of the highlights was visiting a temple that is the oldest man made structure in the area. The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable about the history. I was amazed at how he can remember dates and names from history. You will not visit tourist traps or shops, it is a culturally enriching tour.

If you want to get away from the city and experience the history and culture of India then book this tour. Yes, 6:30 is an early morning pickup, but the reward is to have the chance to spend the day with Praveen, who loves to share his extraordinary historical knowledge with you. The tour takes you out of the city and into the country in order to give you a truly off the beaten track experience. Praveen’s in depth commentary during the visit at the Lepakshi Temple made it easy for me to imagine what a pilgrimage to the temple would have been like for those who made the pilgrimage hundreds of years ago. In his quest to make certain his guests had the correct information, Praveen stopped to have a quick conversation with a temple priest to confirm that he had a piece of history right. Another part of the tour that I thought was valuable was the easy conversations that we had while travelling in the car. Praveen was happy to discuss any topic that I thought would give me a better understanding of his country. Among other things, we talked about economic development generally, the opportunities available to the youth of India, the electoral process, and engagement/marriage customs The Nandi Hills are beautiful, the views are breathtaking, the lunch was relaxing and the food was delicious. It was very hot during my visit in April, so we took the bus to the top of the hills. I was happy that Praveen knew about this option so that I experience the views without the stress of hiking in the heat. It’s easy for you to read the description of what you will see during the tour, but what you really need to know is that you will be cared for like a friend during your Hidden Gems Tour
