Swagatam, Yokoso, and Welcome. . . !!!! Namaskaram, I am Balaji, a Project Management Guru who renounced his 17 years of professional career for the love of Indian History, Architecture and the compounding knowledge and positive impact of these two. I proudly call myself as a "Time Traveler" because I take people back and forth into time and make them the most impactful experience of the past time. First of all, thank you very much for your time as you decided to stop by and read my profile. Truly appreciate it. It's been an exhaustive journey of about 20 years for me to be here and confidently tell you that I have experienced it and I can pass the same experience to you. I have experienced the stones whispering, witnessed the forgotten kingdoms, been in the shadows of great rulers, walked on the royal paths, read the great battle stories, researched the places that almost disappeared and finally I even discovered some new trails. My tours will not be for you just to see, instead, I ensure that you would experience it personally so that everything you see gets engraved in your heart and mind. I promise that, you would go back with memories that would last a lifetime. An expert storyteller, that I am, I can connect Indian History to Itihasa (Mythology) to give you the best of all. I am a Pan-India certified guide along with specialization in Interpreting Indian Architecture & Iconography. In addition to our 5-Star tour experience, I give extreme importance to Safety, Comfort, Punctuality and Service excellence. Uncompromising moments of truth at every step is my delivery commitment. My association with a Japanese travel company in India has taught me how to be impeccable in planning and delivering excellence even in the volatile and inconsistent Indian environment. My support teams and vendors are handpicked post thorough evaluation on both personal and professional front. I guess I said a lot already, and I feel it's time for the real action and let you read my tours and service offering so that we can take things a little further. Once again, I truly appreciate you investing your time on me and reading through this. !!!

Overview of your Hampi tour

This tour will truly take you back in time so that you can experience the living legends of Badami and Hampi. As a certified professional in Interpreting Indian Architecture & Iconography that I am I'll take you to explore the evolution of Temple Architecture and see how Cave Architecture evolved in India. We will witness some of the finest Architectural wonders in these 3 days that are UNESCO World Heritage sites. We would be enjoying the geographical diversities to an extent that it would be difficult to differentiate between nature and us. Depending on the interest, we can include activities like Cycling, Hiking, Sunrises/Sunsets, Coracle ride, Elephant bath, or Boulder trails. This is an ideal tour for individuals with time at their dispense, and are true "Explorers" at heart. We would be starting our tour slightly early and take a break post-lunch in order to beat the midday heat of Hampi and Badami. This tour is 100% customizable based on your preferences and interests
