Mysore/Mysuru was amazing...

Mysore/Mysuru was amazing and an absolute must-do if you have the time. Exploring the architecture, history and colours of Southern India with Chetan was wonderful, he was experienced, professional and knowledgeable. Good for solo travellers and small groups, with pick up and drop off from hotel. So many sites to see, I can't wait to come back and explore more.. Some stops we made; -Tipu Sultan Summer Palace -Chennakeshava Temple, Somnathpur -authentic lunch -silk shopping -flower market/fruit & veg -mysore palace
