• Pochampally Weavers (ikkat Manufacturers) - We take a walk around Pochampally village, which is the home of the iconic weavers of Ikat style Sarees popularly called Pochampally Sarees. The secret of Pochampally Saree weaving lies in using cotton, silk or a combination of the 2 fabrics and weave after transferring the intricate design and colouring onto warp and weft threads. Pochampally has traditional looms, whose design is more than a century old. There are around 5000 looms in this village which churn out these magical Sarees.

We will visit the Handloom textile park to learn a bit about dying, drying and designing stages of the making of a Pochampally Saree.
We visit a unique Weaving Museum where not only do you get to learn about weaving but also about the history of the village and its connection with the revolutionary Bhoodan movement.

Meeting Weavers is the highlight of this tour. We will experience how Saree weaving is a family affair where every member has a specific role to play in the process.
