Granite hills, jungle tracks, backwater hush.<\/h5>\r\nBegin in Bengaluru, then slow into royal Mysore for markets, temples and a hands-on palace-city cooking lesson. Track wildlife through Nagarhole\u2019s riverine forests and Bandipur\u2019s teak country before crossing into Wayanad\u2019s spice hills. The route then turns coastal\u2014heritage lanes in Kochi, a second cooking session in the city, and Kerala\u2019s backwaters by private houseboat.\r\n\r\nDesigned as a private, driver-guided journey<\/a> with shared park safaris, this programme suits couples, families and friends who want depth without rushing. It can be delivered across our three accommodation levels<\/a>, while keeping the same narrative arc and signature experiences. For travellers comparing Luxury South India Tours with broader southern India tours<\/a>, it prioritises story, nature and genuinely local encounters.\r\n\r\nPlan My Trip<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=”row_fullwidth_content” bg_color=”#FFFFFF” row_meta_color=”false” padding_top=”50″ padding_bottom=”90″ class=”featured-logo-outer”][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1765858781934{padding-right: 5% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;}”]\n
