EXPERIENCE RATING
New on EvynxGandikota's fort and canyon rim, plus a full day at Belum Caves - guided across two days.
About this experience
Two guided days across Rayalaseema's most photographed landscape - a walk through Gandikota Fort's 13th-century Kakatiya ramparts and unfenced canyon-rim viewpoints above the Pennar gorge, followed by a full-day excursion to Belum Caves, India's second-longest cave system. A private guide and vehicle stay with you across both days, from the fort's Jamia Masjid and granary tower to Belum's stalactite passages and its Meditation Hall, once used by Buddhist and Jain ascetics between the 1st and 5th centuries CE. Traveller books their own Gandikota stay for the night in between.
