Hampi Dandeli Trip
Overview
Hampi & Dandeli Trip from Mumbai pairs the grandeur of the Vijayanagara Empire with the adrenaline of Dandeli, India's white-water rafting capital on the Kali River. Spend the first two days among the boulder-strewn UNESCO ruins of Hampi — the Stone Chariot, the Vittala Temple and the Lotus Mahal — then drive to Dandeli for Grade 3–4 rafting rapids, jungle safaris and the natural water slide of Supyat Nala. History and adventure in one unforgettable Karnataka road trip.
The 4-day Hampi Dandeli Trip begins with your arrival at Hospet and a transfer to Hampi, where Day 1 covers the Virupaksha Temple, the Hampi Bazaar street, and sunset over the Tungabhadra River from Hemakuta Hill. Day 2 starts with sunrise at Matanga Hill, then a full day among the ruins — Vittala Temple, the Stone Chariot, Lotus Mahal, the Elephant Stables, Queen's Bath, Mahanavami Dibba, and the Royal Enclosure — plus a coracle ride across the river to the riverside temples. Day 3 drives to Dandeli through Hubli for a jungle nature walk and sunset at Syntheri Rocks over the Kali River gorge. Day 4 brings the thrills: a morning rafting session over 9 km of Grade 3–4 rapids with safety kayaks, the Supyat Nala water slide (seasonal), a gypsy wildlife safari, and a birdwatching walk before the overnight return journey.
Rated Moderate and available from ₹6999, the trip includes return bus transfers from Mumbai, all local transfers, three nights in hotels or jungle resorts, meals across the itinerary, Hampi and Vittala Temple entries, the coracle ride, rafting gear, the jungle safari, and a guide. With weekend departures between October and March, it is one of the best getaways from Mumbai for history and adventure in a single trip.
Based in Karnataka, this moderate 4-day trek is best attempted during October, November, December, January, February, March — when the trail and surroundings are at their most rewarding.

Things to Carry
FAQs
How far is Hampi from Mumbai?
By road it is ~750 km, but we fly into Hubli (1.5 hrs) and drive 3 hrs to Hampi — this Hampi Dandeli Trip is designed to maximize time on the ground.
What is the best time for this trip?
Oct–Mar offers pleasant weather — warm beach days and cool nights. Monsoon (Jun–Sep) makes the coast lush but the beaches unsafe for swimming.
Is rafting safe for beginners?
Yes — our sessions are guided by certified rafting professionals with safety kayaks and mandatory life jackets. First-timers are welcome; you just need to be comfortable in water.
