Booking tips

Hotel prices are generally cheaper during the monsoon season (June to September), but some sites may be harder to access. October to March is peak season with pleasant weather, so book accommodations well in advance. Look for hotels with air conditioning, as temperatures can be high.

Food to try

Try the local thalis at restaurants in Hampi Bazaar for a mix of South Indian dishes. Mango Tree restaurant (when open/relocated) is known for its riverside setting and varied menu. Fresh fruit juices are widely available and refreshing in the heat.

Getting around

Auto-rickshaws are the primary mode of transport within Hampi, but negotiate the fare beforehand. Renting a bicycle or scooter is a good way to explore the surrounding areas at your own pace. Buses connect Hampi to Hospet and other nearby towns.
