About Carnatic Quest
Heritage, history and adventure! The stuff quests are made of.
Set along beautiful riverbanks, we’ll explore the abandoned empires of fallen kings in Hampi, discover the lost Halebidu ruins of the defeated Hoysala Empire in Chikmagalur and marvel at the grandeur of the Mysore palaces built to impress queens and princesses.
A relaxed drive between these remarkable history sights in Karnataka is the best way to sample authentic culture and history. Not to mention the cuisine, unique to each stop.
And for that little shot of adrenaline we’ve organised a little off-roading for the enthusiasts.
​
Remember to pack extra memory cards. You will need it for all the pictures.
