‘Angkor Wat’ and more right here in Karnataka - Amazing temple and other structures going back to the 6th century in beautiful settings. Architectural wonders in Hampi,Aihole, Pattadakal and Badami. Unbelievable cave temples cut into rocks in Badami. See architectures influencing Angkor Wat right here in Karnataka. A must-visit tour (- plan for three days and use guides) for anybody interested in history and temple architectures.

Great choice for deep dive into history - I had a business trip in Bangalore and decided to take a long weekend and visit Hampi. I was traveling by myself as a solo female traveler and needed something safe and stress-free since I didn’t know the language. I had been to India before and found it challenging previously. This tour was great because I got to exposure to the rich cultural history of the area and did not have to worry about getting there/around. Mohan, my driver, was professional, prompt, drove safely and took very good care of me. I would definitely book with this company again the next time I come to India. Thank you Mohan and Five Senses.

Wonderful experience - We had a wonderful experience with 5senses. We enjoyed our trip tremendously. Our driver Manju was excellent and so nice. We felt very safe and taken care of. The guides were very good especially the guide from Badami with whom we learnt a lot! They were both very kind and knowledgeable. We strongly recommend 5senses.

A Most Memorable Tour - The four day tour to Hampi, Badami, Aihole, and Pattadakal was one of the most memorable vacations we have taken. Five Senses took care of every detail and were very helpful and accommodating. Our driver, Mohan, navigated traffic with great skill. We felt very safe and in good hands. Our guides, Kodresh and Manju, were very knowledgeable of the area, sites, temples and history. The hotels we stayed at were great and comfortable. This was our first tour like this and we are already talking about coming back to try another tour offering. We have friends who did a DIY Hampi tour and it was very challenging for them, from getting there to hotels, guides, knowing where to go and eat, etc. We highly recommend allowing Five Senses to handle your tour. They book everything. You just need to show up and enjoy the experience. Thank you for the memories!

Excellent private trip to some famous historical and cultural sites in India - Everything went as planned: Our driver, Danush, was efficient, helpful and on time, the car was very reliable and comfortable, the guides at all the sites were very informative, friendly and knowledgeable and provided good explanations; and, of course, the visited places were very interesting from historical-archaeological and cultural-religious points of view. In short, the trip exceeded expectations. M & V

Don't miss Hampi - Hampi was as amazing as I had hoped, so glad I included this tour when visiting India. The other sites were also well worth visiting. Guides were friendly and knowledgeable. Some long drives, but felt safe and the car was comfortable.
