6 days: Bangalore – Mysore – Nagarhole – Bangalore
This is a photographer’s paradise – fruit and vegetable markets, a fairy tale palace, and wildlife in the wild. Timing the start of this trip so that you are in Mysore on a Sunday evening will give you the chance to see the 97 000 lights of the palace turned on – also worth a shot or ten. On to Nagarhole Wildlife Sanctuary and a unique opportunity to stay in the former Maharaja’s hunting lodge.
