Overview

A five-day Goa and Hampi tour package that spends two nights at Calangute and Baga beaches in Goa and two nights beside the Hampi ruins in Karnataka. Guests land at Dabolim airport in Goa and fly home from Hubballi Airport in Karnataka. It suits travellers who want sand and temple ruins in one trip, from November to February.

Who it suits

Travellers who want two beach days and two ruin-walking days, and can sit through one long drive between Goa and Karnataka

Good to know

Long drive on Day 3

Calangute to Hampi is about 340 km, so an early start and a lunch stop on the road are part of the plan

Sea swimming

Calangute's beach has high waves and a sudden drop, so swim with care and ask locally on the day

Hampi heat and ground

Walking is over uneven granite, so closed shoes help and mornings suit sightseeing better than afternoons

Temple dress

Dress modestly and take shoes off at working temples such as Virupaksha
