ನಮ್ಮ ಪ್ರವಾಸೋದ್ಯಮ ಹೆಚ್ಚಿನ ಗಮನ ಐತಿಹಾಸಿಕ ಸ್ಮಾರಕಗಳ ಮೇಲೆ ನೀಡುತ್ತದೆ. ಆದರೆ ಉತ್ತಮ ಪ್ರಯಾಣವು ಉತ್ತಮ ಅನುಭವದಿಂದ ಕೂಡಿರಬೇಕಲ್ಲವೆ? ಪ್ರವಾಸವು ಕೇವಲ ತಾಜ್ ಮಹಲ್ ಅಥವಾ ಮೈಸೂರು ಅರಮನೆ ಅಥವಾ ಹಂಪಿಗೆ ಭೆಟಿ ನೀಡುವುದಲ್ಲ. ಪ್ರವಾಸವು ಒಬ್ಬ ಪ್ರವಾಸಿಕನಿಗೆ ಒಳ್ಳೆಯ ಅನುಭವನ್ನು ಕೊಡಬೇಕು.

Vinay Parameswarappa talks about how sustainable tourism can be reimagined at a city level, and explores the rich heritage and untapped potential of Namma Mysore (Mysuru) city and its surrounding region.

Tourism, travel and heritage have a high focus on monuments in India, but good travel is increasingly about a great experience. Tourism is not just about visiting the Taj Mahal or the Mysore Palace or the ruins of Hampi. It is also about having a great experience with diverse offerings for different travelers, from great food tours, to deep historical journeys to unwinding at a great ayurvedic spa to a yoga retreat.

On Episode 113 of the Thale-Harate Kannada Podcast, Vinay Parameswarappa of Gully Tours talks to host Pavan Srinath about how to think about tourism at a city level, with the example of Mysuru. Vinay shares the tourism history of the Mysuru Dasara from pre-indendepence Mysore state, along with various glimpses into what can be possible if we reimagine tourism and travel completely.

Vinay Parameswarappa is the founder of Gully Tours, which was formerly Royal Mysore Walks. They help travelers discover rich, untold stories of Mysore, Bangalore, Kochi and Coorg through heritage walks and other tours. You can find out more about them at https://gully.tours/ .
