Overview
Step back into Bangalore's colonial-era Cantonment on this 3.5–4 hour walk through the historic Army Town. Once a pivotal British military settlement, this district shaped the DNA of streets you know today — MG Road, Cubbon Road, and more. Starting at the iconic Koshy's, you'll explore heritage sites through archival photographs and stories, with a continental breakfast stop at the charming Ceylon Tea Rooms along the way.
This is a private, small-group experience (up to 20 people, just your group) led by Bengaluru Prayana, a heritage-storytelling collective founded by a lifelong Bangalorean.
Discover the hidden colonial side of Bangalore beyond the tech hubs.
View rare archival maps, letters, photographs and postcards during the tour.
Perfect for:
- First-time visitors
- History enthusiasts
- Architecture lovers
- Military history enthusiasts
- Solo travellers
- Couples
- Photographers
- Curious travellers wanting to explore beyond the usual tourist attractions
