About this trip
This short extension takes you inland from Goa to Badami, once the capital of the Chalukyan dynasty and home to some of India's finest rock-cut architecture.
Over three days you swap coastline for sandstone cliffs, cave temples and ancient carvings, with a guide on hand to unpack the history behind what you're seeing.
It's an easy add-on for anyone already in Goa who wants a dose of history and old stone temples rather than more beach time.
What you'll do
- Explore the rock-cut Badami Caves
- Walk through the Pattadakal Temple Complex
- See the carvings of Durga Temple in Aihole
- Travel between Goa's coast and Badami's inland heritage sites
- Fully guided throughout, so little is left for you to organise
- Easy pace, suited to families and mixed-age groups
- Best treated as an extension to a Goa trip rather than a standalone holiday
