What If The Vijayanagara Royals Showed You Around Hampi?

Join Us For A 3-Day, 3-Night All Inclusive Trip From Bengaluru

Dear reader,

We hope you’ve had a chance to check out our first email introducing the return of Swarajya Heritage Tours. If you're still pondering "Should I join or not?", allow us to talk about one certain aspect of it which we believe you definitely won't want to miss.

Yes, we will visit all the iconic spots—the majestic ruins, the must-see temples, and the breathtaking landscapes of Hampi. But that's not it.

• On Day 2, we’re taking you to Anegundi, the first capital of the Vijayanagara Empire and the birthplace of Hanuman. And it's not just going to be hopping between one temple to another.

• The royal descendants of the Vijayanagara Empire will personally guide us through this historic town.

• Shri Krishna Deva Raya, a direct descendant of the Aravidu dynasty, along with Smt. Rathnashree Raya and Shri Tirumala Venkata Devaraya, the 20th descendant of the great Krishnadevaraya, will share the remarkable stories of their ancestors and the glorious past of their empire.

You’ll hear firsthand how they are working to restore ancient temples, promote the arts, and preserve the rich customs that defined the Vijayanagara Empire.

Truly exclusive: We know this is a beaten down phrase but this truly is an exclusive chance to hear about the rich history of the Vijayanagara Empire from those who are till-date, actively safeguarding its legacy. It’s an experience you won’t find on a typical tourist itinerary.
