Hampi — 3 Nights / 4 Days Tour
Karnataka · UNESCO ruins — The ruined capital of the Vijayanagara empire, spread across 26 square kilometres of boulder-strewn landscape that looks like nowhere else in India. It is a UNESCO site and it is enormous — the mistake most visitors make is treating it as a day trip from Bengaluru, which reduces one of the great archaeological sites in Asia to a rushed afternoon. Two nights minimum: one day for the Sacred Centre around Virupaksha, one for the Royal Centre and the Vittala temple with its stone chariot. Sunrise from Matanga Hill is the view people remember. Summer here is brutal and October to February is the only sensible window. This 3-night tour is built around the destination's key sights, priced on enquiry and tailored to your dates — the day-by-day below is a flexible framework, confirmed with you at quotation.

Questions
Package FAQs
Can I see Hampi in a day?
Not properly. It covers 26 square kilometres and a day trip means seeing perhaps a fifth of it. Two nights is the realistic minimum and we will say so rather than sell you a rushed version.
How do I get to Hampi?
Overnight train to Hospet from Bengaluru or Goa, then 13 km by road. Flying to Hubli cuts the journey but flights are limited.
Is Hampi too hot?
From March to June, yes — it regularly exceeds 40°C with no shade among the ruins. October to February is the only comfortable window.
Is this a fixed itinerary or can it be customised?
It is a flexible framework built around Hampi's key sights. The exact day-by-day plan, specific hotels and final inclusions are tailored to your dates, pace and party at the quotation stage — add nights, nearby destinations or activities as you wish.
How is the price calculated?
On enquiry. We price your exact party, dates, hotel category and inclusions rather than publish an average that changes the moment you ask. A consultant replies within one working day; no payment is required for a quote.
