On this walking tour, discover Bangalore, which was founded in the 15th century by the founder of the city Kempegowda. Walk down the narrow alleys and experience the hustle and bustle of this market area where we visit places which are more than 100 years old to see the culture, customs and traditions come alive. This is the side of Bangalore you will experience only after tossing away the guide book and one that you will remember for years to come.
