From the very first call to our private villa in Ubud, every little detail was handled. Our guide even arranged a surprise candle-lit dinner on the beach. Zero stress — pure magic.
Mullayanagiri Trek Tour
Stand atop Karnataka's highest peak
Mullayanagiri, at 1,930 metres, is the highest peak in Karnataka — a rewarding climb through grassy ridges to a little summit shrine and sweeping Western Ghats views. The final stretch can be done on foot or largely by road, so it suits most fitness levels. We pair it with coffee estates and Baba Budangiri for a perfect Chikmagalur day.

About the Mullayanagiri Trek
The route climbs through open grassland to a summit crowned by a small Shiva shrine. The last part is a short, steepish walk; much of the ascent can also be driven for those who prefer it.
What to Expect & Carry
Bring layers, water, grippy shoes and a wind-cheater — the summit is breezy and can be misty. Early mornings offer the clearest views above the clouds.
How to Reach Chikmagalur
The nearest airport is Mangalore (about 3.5–4 hours), with Bengaluru (about 5–6 hours by road) offering the widest flight choice. The closest railheads are Kadur and Birur, about an hour away, with Hassan also well connected. We arrange comfortable private transfers for the scenic hill drive.
Best Time for the Trek
September to February for clear, green conditions. The monsoon is dramatic but slippery; we advise based on current weather.
Where to Stay in Chikmagalur
We match you to the right base — a working coffee-estate homestay, a hillside resort with valley views, or a quiet retreat toward Kemmanagundi and Kalasa. Tell us your style and budget and we will tailor the stay.

Real stories from real journeys
Thousands of families and couples across South India have travelled with us — here's what a few of them had to say.
Travelling with my parents and two kids, I was nervous. Holiday Vibez planned every single day perfectly, and the Alleppey houseboat was the highlight. We are already planning our next trip with them.
Great value for the money, and the desert safari and Burj Khalifa tickets were all sorted before we even landed. The team was on WhatsApp whenever I had a question.
The Gulmarg gondola, the shikara ride on Dal Lake — exactly like the photos, no surprises at all. By the end of the trip our driver felt like family.
Booked a fairly last-minute Phuket trip and they still got me a great deal with visa help included. Honest, smooth and genuinely helpful people.
Scuba at Havelock was a dream come true. Every transfer and every hotel was exactly as promised. Worth every rupee, and I have already recommended them to friends.
