About the Event

On this journey to the city of ruins, you will come across a plethora of landscapes, people and experiences.


With a history that dates back to the 3rd century B.C., Hampi will leave you in awe of its culture and beauty. Witness some spectacular sunsets that paint the sky in blazing shades of orange, magnificent piles of boulders stretching as far as the eyes can see, and the history of one of India's glorious empires left behind in the form of ruins.


Let Vagabond take you on an experience that is ancient, unique and gives you a look into a majestic environment. If you're interested in cycling through ancient ruins, while also jumping in rivers and eating some great food, Hampi is the place to be!

Itinerary
Day 1
Pack your bags cause you will be heading to the city of ruins! Meet at Andheri (E) outside the Bisleri Building (near WEH Metro Station) at 04:00 PM.
Day 2
Reach Hospet by 08:00 AM and check in to Your comfortable hotel rooms at Hospet market. After breakfast at Hospet, head in rickshaws to Hampi. Keep a lookout for the ever-changing landscapes. They're gripping, to say the least. Reach Hampi Bazaar in around 30 minutes and make your way for the walking tour of the Hampi ruins. You will cross some gorgeous landscapes and rivers. Head back to Hampi Market for a late lunch. You have a few hours to explore the area. Then, head for a beautiful walk to Sanapur Lake. It's a 4.5 km walk but in the end, its all worth the effort. Spend the evening by the lakeside. You can take a dip in the water or go for a coracle ride. Before it gets too dark, head back to your guest house. Hog on a heavy dinner and get a good night's rest, cause you're gonna need a whole lotta energy for the next day.
Day 3
Rise and shine Vagabonds! Nourish yourself as much as you can, cause today you're gonna cycle around the ruins of Hampi. There's a fair bit of uphill cycling but don't worry, you can just get off and walk up the slope (you won't be judged). The roads are wide with barely any traffic, so make sure you enjoy the pleasant climate and beautiful views. You'll find "nimbu-paani" and souvenir vendors along the way. Refresh yourselves and even do your part of the shopping. Head back to Hampi Bazaar for a late lunch. You have a couple of hours to explore the bazaar on your own or just go sit by the river or cycle around the town. Meet by 04:00 PM sharp and take rickshaws back to Hospet. Take one last look as the ruins of Hampi whiz past you. Time to board your bus back to Bombay.
Day 4
You will reach Bombay around 08:00 AM latest. Say your final goodbyes. Back to the grind!
