- Mysore - Bandipur - Ooty Route
:
Mysore (2 nights) - Bandipur (1 nights) -
Ooty (2 nights) Highlights
- This is a short-break Tourist itinerary that covers heritage city of Mysore, Tiger
reserve of Bandipur and Hill station of Ooty.
|
Expert
Speak - This is a little variant of the old timer favorite
Bangalore - Mysore - Ooty itinerary. Bangalore has now ceased to be a
destination to spend much time due to its traffic and urban overkill.
Bandipur and its tiger population / sighting possibility add variety
to heritage charm of Mysore and Hill station character of Ooty. |
