Bangalore Walking Tours | 3 Self Guided Options!

You always wanted to go on Bangalore Walking Tours but did not know how to go about. Correct? We will make it easy for you with this self guided detailed itinerary!

Walking tour of a city is always fun and interesting. It helps you understand a city and its neighbourhoods better. Walking along and exploring a city brings you close to the people, heritage and culture of the place. Self guided Bangalore walking tours are easy to do and not strenuous.

We always love to explore the place we go to on foot. We normally take a walking tour with a guide for lack of information for a self guided walking tour. A self-guided walking tour also allows you to spend your time leisurely and absorb the essence of the place.

We were mulling on this idea of “Self-guided Bangalore walking tours” for some time.  These walking tours are easy to do. We have made sure the walking tour covers around 5 KMs and can be done in 4-5 hours. With adequate breaks, it helps explore neighbourhoods by walking around leisurely.

These Bangalore walking tours are good way to explore the city at your own pace. The city of Bangalore has many things which can be seen and experienced on foot. We continue to build on this list of walking tours to cover different parts of the city.

Put on your shoe and keep walking. And exploring!
