Pondicherry Tour Package From Bangalore

• Reach Pondy early in the morning check into the stay

• Explore French colony on foot. Experience the colorful architecture, visit the monuments, museum, have lunch & visit Aurobindo ashram
• Take a trip to “Auroville” – a unique township which is very famous among travelers visiting Pondicherry. Auroville is home to people from different countries who live in peace. The place is self-sustained, well maintained and calm. A wide range of handicrafts and locally made souvenirs are sold here.
  Note: We will not go inside “Matrimandir” or “Golden Globe” as it needs prior permission. Instead we will visit it from outside as part of our Auroville trip.
• Drive to Serenity Beach play in the water, walk barefoot
