Walk the path lead by the ingenuity of the Maharajahs of Mysuru. On this half day walk, let us take you through their innovative political systems, their contribution in the economic, banking, and educational sectors. The Maharajah’s interest in the arts and architecture led to the making of a Royal city that was once the capital of the state of Karnataka. To date, Mysuru is considered a model city for its ideal infrastructure and astute ways of using its resources. You also get to try the local flavors in the form of its cuisine and famed Mysuru nugget coffee. You also get to take a guided walk inside the grand Amba Vilas Palace. The Maharajah walk is ideal for travelers who want to make the most of their time in the Royal city.

An absolutely brilliant tour! Full of information, interesting facts and the most amazing breakfast stop! The right amount of time at each place, and our guide Arun was great, I had mentioned that I wanted to buy some spices so he made sure that when we were at the market he took me to some spice stands so I could get what I wanted. I would absolutely recommend this tour as a great way to get a feel for Mysore and its history.

Absolutely brilliant! Arun is so friendly and knowledgeable, the tour went by so quickly as he explained all about the history of the places we were going. He answered all of our questions with patience and humour and it was a pleasure to be guided by him. I would absolutely recommend this tour 100%.

Sneaking out for a quick weekend during the Corona disruption, we wanted to leisurely explore Mysuru. And it was great to find Unventured. We were not sure if tours were on, and it was great that they made tour happen at short notice. Listening to stories and legends of one of the more progressive princely state was great for us & kids alike. Shruti being local and one of us, was easy to connect to. It's a conversation rather than typical monologues by tour guides. And we discovered not only the history but Contemporary Mysuru, with stories of modern professionals reverse migrating to Mysuru to setup niche businesses, couple of which we visited. Great connect, Great experience. Let there be more tours like this all over India and hoping to join one of their cycle tours exploring outside soon.
Top- notch experience!

Sauharda is just an excellent guide. He is so knowledgeable, so personable, and can so quickly tailor his comments to your fields of interest. He is the opposite of a tour guide who gives the same canned presentation to everyone he works with. You can’t go wrong asking for Sauharda.

Memorable walk with well experienced guides. We were able to explore various local markets and taste traditional dishes.. Our guide was having immense experience of travelling and done Kashmir to kanyakumari cycling was both surprising and motivating for us.. Unlike local tour operators, we got personalised attention and proper guidance.. During the walk we were briefed about the history of the city and significance of places and personalities...We were lucky to see the present maharaja at a sweet shop(Guru Sweets) were you can get Genuine Mysore Pak sweet... Thank u team unventured.. will see u soon...
