The Heritage Trail, Hampi
This trip has been planned to see the splendid City of Ruins, Hampi, over a period of 4 days. The hike to the birthplace of Lord Hanuman has also been included.
The weather in Hampi tends to be hot during the day which is worsened by the topography. The trip therefore, has made provision for quiet afternoons when the guests can relax in their rooms and avoid the afternoon heat.
THIS HOLIDAY IS IDEAL FOR SENIOR CITIZENS and TRAVELERS WITH WEIGHT ISSUES.
