Those among you who love to spend some leisurely days scouring the ruins of the historic past there is no place in the whole of India like in Karnataka.

The wonderful state on the western coast of India is a gold mine of heritage sites. Precisely, 5000 of them including the world heritage sites like Hampi-- India's Angkor Vat.

This State has desolate ruins of many empires. Heard of the Lion of India, Tip Sultan who had single headedly challenged the might of British and imprisoned hundreds of British generals before he was shot dead by the Brits? His Fort on way to Mysore city at Srirangapatna is where you could spend hours living in a time-warp.

It is not heritage alone, Karnataka has countless alcoves of peace and great hill stations as half of Western Ghats run through the State. Western Ghats as you know is a world hotspot, rich in flora and fauna but under pressure from human intervention. With governmental special schemes to ensure the pristine status of Western Ghats, much of its beauty is preserved which are open only to visitors.

Some 300 kilometres of coastal line, beautiful Karvar ...
... port where deep sea cruising is encouraged, Caravan tour where you would hire a well-equipped van, nay, mobile home to see the fauna and flora in their natural habitat, and soon to be introduced night safari in the Bangalore's Bannerghatta are some attractions you could hardly resist. All this is, of course, apart from Bangalore, the Garden City which is the IT capital of the Orient.

For adventure tourism, Karnataka among the southern India offers the best. Numerous rocky nooks and crannies, several perennial rivers where rafting is organised, trekking and rock climbing, simply ambling along forested paths holding the hands of your love are some other thrills awaiting you.

When you had your fill of adventure and heritage you could scoot to Coorg which is a picturesque hill town in South Karnataka. One cool place lying lazily enjoying the soft caress of Sun will make you feel in heaven. Coorg has many parts where human footfalls are not many and where you could breathe deep the spicy wind coming from cardamom and plantations around. Where you and your loved one could embrace and say, nice end to a lovely vacation.

SLS tours with 15 years of service to the millions of visitors have tailor-made trips to enjoy this great state. And, at an economical cost too.
