Overview

A day tour is through the areas of Ramanagara and Channapatna, two towns near Bangalore famous for their cottage industries.

The Culture tour aims to take a visitor on a Silk route - from the humble silkworms, their cocoons to the markets & factories - in an effort to show the process and the diverse people behind the silk industry of South India. Do you know India produces 20% of the world’s silk? (Of course, no guesses on who is the world’s largest producer of silk).
