Tours
Hyderabad
is the Gateway to the South, the city of many
faces, an amalgam of the mystic with the modern,
the serene and leisurely Nawabi style with the
hectic pace of the information technology, the
Kebabs, Biryanis and Sherwanis with the Pearls and
Paigahs.
Hyderabad beckons you!
A Pot-Pourri of old and new, this 400 year old
city has a lot to offer to the discerning tourist
- History, Culture, Entertainment, Cuisine, Crafts
to name a few. It will be a never-ending love
story!
We have some interesting tours lined up for you
just as a sampler. Go through this exotic menu of
destinations and do book early. Space is limited
and the early birds would be the lucky ones. Apart
from the organized tours, you can explore
Hyderabad on your own, spend an evening in the NTR
Park or the Public Garden, enjoy the thrilling
musical fountain at the Lumbini Park, stroll along
the beautiful Necklace Road, or have a blast at
the Prasads IMAX with the world's largest 3D IMAX
screen, or loosen your purse strings and shop the
evening away at the vast malls that dot the city.
