About this activity

One often forgets dates and names, but never a good story! This tour will take you back in time through its stories, and anecdotes that one would miss otherwise. It's a combination of a walking tour and Street food tour.

Starting from the Big Ben of Mysore- Doddagadiyara or the big clock tower in front of the Mysuru Townhall, walk past the palace gates and then to the Devaraja Market, a century-old market where local produce is sold.

Get a locals perspective of what the market means and entails. Visit a local perfume maker and get to photograph friendly faces of the vendors.

Post the market, the tour takes you through small alleyways and hole in the wall places which only the locals know about where you will get to try safe street food (No Delhi belly, I promise)

End the walk with the best Mysore masala Dosa and tips on planning your next few days of vacation in India. Or shoot ANY questions about life in India, culture, religion, etc.

Good stories, visuals, & amazing food await
