CoorgRegular readers here would know about TravelWise, an initiative from Lakshmi and me to conduct well researched tours to give better experience to travellers. Our next tour will be to Coorg on 27th February. It’s a well researched tour with insights to nature, culture and heritage of Coorg. Looking forward to see you on the trail. Details below.

Vignettes of Coorg

Green hills, misty rivers, lost monuments and an endless fabric of coffee plantations. Add to this a distinct local culture and a history of conflicts and intrigue.

Welcome to Vignettes of Coorg. You see a different slice of life at every corner of this coffee country. Meet the Kodavas, soak in their culture, follow the call of the birds, wet your feet in a creek, feel the rush of a waterfall, visit an ancestral home.

As you travel, listen to stories of passion and intrigue, myths and legends and blend with the rhythm of nature.

Join us on the Coorg trail. Its time to wake up and smell the coffee.

Travel Wise – The Hoysala Trail – February 13, 14

After a short gap, ‘The Tour of Less Known Hoysala Kingdom’ from Travel Wise is back again. We will be going on a tour on the weekend of February 13th, in which I will take a small group through some less known but beautiful temples around Belur and Halebeedu, built by the Hoysalas. The tour is not just about going from place to place, but involves knowing a lot about the dynasty and the temples. We will also do a walk inside a coffee estate and find out everything about growing coffee.

We had received great response in earlier editions of the tour, and the feedback was excellent. See details of the tour on travelwise.in.  The group size will be small, between 8 and 11, so register early.
