Hampi Hospete Tour Packages
The heavenly abode of rufous colours and fascinating landscapes, Hampi is the rustic marvel you must tour.
The then capital of the Vijayanagar Empire, Hampi, by some accounts, was considered to be the world’s second-largest city during the 1500 AD. However, it began to fall out of importance over the next few centuries and that left the current city of Hampi with marvellous ancient architectural ruins and exceptionally beautiful religious sites that can easily be covered in a Hampi tour itinerary. These ruins contribute majorly to city tourism as they are some of the most important tourist places in Hampi and are included in almost all Hampi tour packages available online at Veena World.
These ruins offer an opportunity for some of the most stunning and picturesque sightseeing spots in all of Karnataka, and arguably the whole of South India. But that’s not it, the terrains in the city play an equally important role as major tourist places in Hampi and contribute largely to city tourism. After all, Hampi does have an extraordinary topography! Surrounded by numerous boulders of various sizes, the view of the city from atop these boulders is nothing short of surreal! Besides, it takes little to no effort for climbing them. However, if climbing some of those seems a little challenging, rest assured, your efforts are going to be incredibly fruitful!

The name Hampi is the anglicised form of the Kannada word ‘Hampe’, which was derived from the ancient name of the Tungabhadra River – Pampa. In Sanskrit, the name of the village translates to the "City of Victory". Hampi is a small village in Karnataka that is home to many ancient temples and is one of the most historically rich places in India. If you are a history enthusiast, then this village will not disappoint. Not only is the story of Hampi’s past very interesting, but it is also home to some of the most amazing tourist attractions and temples that you can include in your Hampi tour itinerary.
The best time for booking your Hampi trip package is the winter season, which lasts from October to February. During these months, the temperature is moderately cool, making it the best time to explore this World Heritage Site. The ancient village of Hampi mostly experiences a moderate and dry climate throughout the year, but the summers (March-June) tend to bring in soaring high temperatures that are not the most conducive for sightseeing. The monsoons (July-September), on the other hand, bring with them average and inconsistent rainfall, which does lower the temperatures but make the place quite humid.
In a matter of speaking. While Hampi does not have an actual beach, you can add a trip to Hippie Island to your local tour package of Hampi. You can take a boat across the Tungabhadra River to the vibrant Hippie Island, which was originally known as Virapapur Gadde. The laidback vibe of the place, amazing bouldering opportunities, backpacker culture, numerous sunset points offering mesmerising views, and some lakes where you can enjoy swimming, Hippie Island offers everything you expect from a beach vacation and more.
Ranging from budget-friendly to luxurious accommodation, Hampi has a number of places where you can book your stay. If you’re planning a pocket-friendly trip or are backpacking in Hampi, you may want to consider staying at Hippie Island. On the other hand, if you are booking a Hampi honeymoon package, you may want to check out the romantic heritage resorts located in the village. You can search for the perfect accommodation option for your trip and customise your Hampi vacation package accordingly with Veena World’s customised holidays.
