Package holiday to Bengaluru (Bangalore)

Bengaluru — known as Bangalore until 2006 — is India's Silicon Valley and at the same time the garden city of the subcontinent: A metropolis of 8.5 million on the Deccan Plateau at an altitude of 900 meters, whose spring-like climate throughout the year allows jasmine flowers, bougainvillea, and jacaranda trees to thrive, making one forget the heat of the Indian lowlands.

The city is a fascinating contrast: In the city center, the shiny towers of tech parks line up — Infosys, Wipro, TCS, and hundreds of international IT companies have their headquarters here. At the same time, the Lalbagh Botanical Garden and Cubbon Park in the heart of the city offer green oases with centuries-old trees, greenhouses in the style of London's Kew Gardens, and blooming flowerbeds that justify Bengaluru's nickname Garden City.

The historical Bengaluru reveals itself in the Tipu Sultan Summer Palace, an elegant teak palace from the 18th century, and in the lively Devaraja Market in the old town, where mountains of jasmine flowers, spices, bananas, and sandalwood products overwhelm the senses. The Bull Temple with its over 4-meter-high monolithic Nandi bull and the ISKCON Temple on Hare Krishna Hill showcase the spiritual side of the city.

What truly makes Bengaluru unique is its craft beer and café scene — the best in India. The city has more microbreweries than any other in Asia, and the nightlife districts of Koramangala, Indiranagar, and Church Street vibrate in the evenings with live music, rooftop bars, and a cosmopolitan energy that makes Bengaluru the most relaxed metropolis in India.

Bengaluru (Bangalore) particularly impresses with excellent cuisine. As a package holiday destination, you benefit from attractive all-inclusive packages with flights, hotels, and often transfers – all at a fixed price and fully secured.
