💡 Travel Tips
💰 Stay in homestays or budget hotels in the old town area instead of resort chains - you'll find comfortable rooms for ₹800-1500/night while supporting local families and experiencing authentic hospitality.
📅 October to February offers the most pleasant weather with cool mornings and comfortable daytime temperatures, making it ideal for exploring historical sites and outdoor activities. Avoid May to September due to heavy monsoon rains that can disrupt travel plans and make hill areas inaccessible.
🛂 Indian citizens with valid passports do not require any visa or special permits to visit Tumkur as it is a domestic destination within Karnataka state.
