On this private 3.5-hour tour, discover Bangalore, which was founded 500 years back by the founder of the city Kempegowda. Experience the culture, customs, and traditions come alive in the narrow alleys of this off the beaten path, where you pass through an ancient church, 380 year old temple, heritage building, historic mosque, an old wrestling house, market places, and a traditional healing place. This is the side of Bangalore you will experience only after tossing away the guide book, and one that you will remember for years to come.

A great introduction to the real Bangalore, this was an amazing way to get an overview of the main things to do and see while experiencing the sights and sounds of old Bangalore. Ruchira was an amazing guide and host and we would do this tour again in a heartbeat.

We met Sushma in the morning and started the Tour at a famous authentic Dosa place, which was quiet an experience. Then we went to the Bull and Ganesha temple where we learned a lot of interesting facts about Hinduism and Indian culture. Sushma answered all our questions, she has a great knowledge and its really easy to listen to her. She took us to the KR Market and showed us around. Afterwards we did a little walk through the Cubbon Park and the tour ended at the Bangalore Parliament. I can highly reccomend the tour with Sushma. We instantly felt comfortable with her, she knows so much about the city and the culture and we just had a good time.
