Tips

To keep within the ₹1 lac budget, consider opting for a mid‑range hotel in Bangalore and Mysore (e.g., Hotel Royal Orchid) and a comfortable homestay in Coorg instead of a resort. If you wish to extend the trip, add a day in Hampi for a sunrise visit to Matanga Hill or a day in Coorg to explore Talacauvery. Conversely, you can shorten the journey by combining Bangalore and Mysore on a single day using an early‑morning train, which reduces accommodation costs by one night.
