Cubbon Park Walk
It was a great walk in a lovely climate and a nice intro about the park, I personally thank [Unhurried] for this great walk. This was really a good initiative, being born in Bangalore and even visiting Cubbon park for more than 100 times with my friends and family, I was just unaware of anything about my city. This gave me the chance to see the Park from a completely different angle, surrounded by birds, trees, flowers that too in he early morning. By discovering fascinating facts about its history and transformation.
Bungalow Walk
We had a "unhurried" tour of Richard's Town, we learned and relearned a lot of old Bangalore history—especially the Great Divide between the traditional Bangalore and the English occupied Cantonment and Bangalore East areas. One had the temples in profusion and the other old churches. As an old resident of the western part of Bangalore (1950s through the 1970s at different times) I thoroughly enjoyed the walk through memory lane - especially when the tour ended at Paul Fernandes' excellent art gallery of Bangalore paintings.
Unhurried - Travel with tales, myths and miracles
Any city is best discovered on feet; walking through by-lanes, taking in the sights, smelling the fragrances, hearing subtle sounds, without the hustle-bustle of a busy day. Experience an 'unhurried' walk, almost in slow motion, while the city around you races past. Join us on a trail of your choice.
Every piece of land we use, every plant and every insect, every spice we add to our meal, every film made, every song sung, every poem written is the city's treasure. This is what we've inherited from people who lived here before us.
Every city has its own unique history, influences of rulers from the past, little quirks and distinct idiosyncrasies that can't be understood if you didn't walk in the shoes of those who did before you. At Unhurried, we aim to take you along the city's life through stories from the past, to show you what you often see in a new light, to encourage you to empathize with the Bangalore you engage with everyday.
