Travelling Green

  Had a lovely day listening to the amazing in depth knowledge Bala shared of all the attractions on the tour itinerary .... all day long ! His energy is amazing... read more and he is very friendly and kind. Such a day well spent and I totally recommend this tour to anyone wanting a private or group tour of Bangalore’s interesting places! He guides you with ease from place to place and I found myself wearing flower garlands in my hair and eating lunch off a banana leaf like a true local ! I learnt so much and he answered all my questions and waited patiently as I took a tone of photos along the way ! Loved every minute of it ! Highly valuable experience!

  Wowsers!

Today I experienced the Bengaluru Markets and did the “Pete” Walk.

From start to finish it was simply amazing. Our guide was Guru, super informative, very... read more friendly and his passion was clear to see. Being a local, he could tell you stay after story.
I was expecting this walk to be good, however it surpassed all expectations. Colours were insane, food markets, the endless flower markets, it was eye-opening. Our brunch stop was again incredible. We watched them make our Masala Dosa and I can honestly say it’s the best thing I’ve eaten since being here in Bangalore.

One final thing, at the end of the tour, I foolishly had no money on me. Struggling to find a cash machine, Tej, founder of the company, happily ordered me an Uber from her phone. Lifesaver!

Seriously, if you are in town and you want a true, local, traditional feel of Bangalore, there is nothing better than these guys.

  Another great tour with my friends at Unventured!
Guru took me on 3/4 day adventure just outside of Bangalore, mixing up some cycling with a climb/scramble up to a hill-top... read more fort, and then back into the city for a late lunch.

Hotel pickup was at 6am Saturday morning.
Drove about an hour out of town, and then commenced cycling. We had a beautiful day for it. In total, we cycled 50km on Unventured's great mountain bikes that are well suited for the rural roads and villages outside of the city.
At about the 3/4 mark of the ride, we got off our bikes and hit Savandurga, an old fort high up a hillside, that was quite a scramble. Then back on to finish our ride, and then drove back into the city for some beers and a biryani lunch.

Highlights:
- This is my weekend exercise in the middle of a business trip, and I always love it.
- Stopped at Dodda Aalada Mara, a huge 400-year old banyan tree spread over 3 acres.
- Great views overlooking the Manchanabele reservoir.
- Scrambling up the hill at Savandurga, the largest monolithic hillock in Asia. Great views here, too, overlooking the plains, river and other hills.

As always, Guru is great fun to adventure with. Funny and engaging, and with an amazing knowledge of the countryside, birds and all. No pressure on the cycling apart from that which you bring with you yourself - which is always much appreciated.

Thanks Unventured!
