Karnataka has plenty for the adventure loving visitor and on this tour you’ll spend time in Coorg for trekking and rafting, as well as visiting 2 of South India’s best National Parks, Nagarhole and Bandipur.
Bangalore Arrival
You’ll be met on arrival in Bangalore and assisted with the transfer to your hotel. Staying near the airport means an easy departure tomorrow. Overnight in Bangalore
Bangalore - Bandipur
Leaving the city behind, head to the expansive grasslands of Bandipur National Park. Like Nagarhole, which you’ll visit next, this is a part of the massive Nilgiri Biosphere, South India’s largest area of protected habitat. There is, however, a huge contrast between the two, with Bandipur being significantly drier and more open, meaning sightings of wildlife are easier (but numbers of animals are not as high). Take a safari in the afternoon- with luck you’ll see your first elephants today. Overnight at Bandipur
Bandipur - Nagarhole
A final safari at dawn, then drive around 2 hours to Nagarhole, and start exploring this National Park with your first safari in the afternoon. Overnight at Nagarhole
Nagarhole - Coorg
Conclude the safari phase of your tour at first light, and after breakfast back at your camp or lodge, drive 4 hours or so to the Coorg district. Relax and settle in this afternoon, ahead of adventures over the next couple of days
