Overview

This full-day private tour lasts about 12 to 13 hours and starts with pickup and drop-off at your hotel in Bangalore. Travel by private car to Mysore with a guide approved by the Ministry of Tourism. The first stop is Mysore Palace, a large Indo-Saracenic style building blending Hindu, Muslim, Rajput, and Gothic architecture, featuring marble domes and a 145-foot five-storied tower. The guided visit covers the Public Hall, Private Hall, Dolls Pavilion, and Royal Wedding Hall. Next, spend about 45 minutes at Devraja Market, the old bazaar where local flowers, fruits, vegetables, jaggery, and other goods are sold. Afterward, visit St Philomena Church, built in 1840 and expanded in 1933 during Maharaja Krishnaraja Wodeyar IV’s reign. It was originally called St. Joseph Chavez Church and was constructed to serve the European community in Mysore. It is the second largest church in Asia. The final stop is a choice between Somnathpura and Srirangapatna. At Somnathpura, visit the Chennakesava Temple, a UNESCO World Heritage site built in 1268 by General Somanatha under King Narasimha III. The temple complex includes three shrines and three intricately carved towers with a shared hall, and ceilings depicting stages of a banana flower bloom along with detailed deity carvings. Alternatively, guests may visit Srirangapatna to see Dariya Daulat Bagh and Bailey Dungeon. The tour includes a traditional Mysore lunch and all entrance fees.
