The 10 Best City Tours in Mysuru (Mysore), Karnataka
The kings of the Wodeyar dynasty set the bar high for the southern cultural capital of Mysore. Ornate palaces and the Gothic St. Philomena's Church with its 175-foot spires pack a visual punch; local institutions keep Carnatic classical music and dance in the public eye. A prominent 11th-century temple sits atop 1,000 steps on the city's outskirts. Dress to the nines and party like a rock star in celebration of Mysore heritage during the lively Dussehra festival, held for 10 days in October/November.

Overall Ratings
4.8 based on 26 reviews
Saddle up, as we head out on an early morning tour when the city is waking up to life and the streets are still devoid of traffic. Get a peek into the different communities and have some chai with the locals. Take in the city at your own pace as we ride past some lovely colonial structures and get to know the stories behind them. To make up for the calories lost we end with a sumptuous South Indian breakfast and a good cuppa filter coffee on the tour.
Inclusions: Use of bicycle and helmet, Local guide, Breakfast, Bottled water, Coffee/tea

Really enjoyed a fantastic tour with our tour guide Pruthvi. The tour started with the history and took in some great sights, including the palace, before moving to the market and beginning the food part of the tour. The history part was really well put together, not too much so that you’re overloaded, but enough to add colour the the places you’re looking at. Pruthvi was excellent at adding in little personal stories along the way which elevated it from good to very good. The food was excellent, a mix of the best street food Mysore has to offer. Never rushed, we are at our own pace and loved every bite from the different stops. The best review I can give is that when we return to Mysore, Pruthvi and Gully tours will be the first people we call.
