About this experience
This walking tour connects many dots from the colonial history of Bangalore. It provides a glimpse of the British presence and discusses their contribution to the evolution of Modern Bangalore. The tour also showcases two of the most prominent public buildings of Bangalore, built in different eras, but presently overlooking each other. A walk through the Cubbon park can be very refreshing and has promptly contributed to Bangalore earning the sobriquet "Garden City of India". The variety of flora adds to the charm of the walk through the Cubbon park. A visit to the Government Museum brings to life the artistic achievements from the ancient dynasties of Hoysala, Vijayanagara, Chalukya, Gangas, Cholas, etc. The museum is also home to many relics from the neolithic and megalithic remains from Karnataka. If you are not really going to visit the temples of Belur, Halebid, Hampi, Mysore, etc., a visit to this museum can be a good replacement.

What you'll see and do
St. Mark's Cathedral
From the meeting point, which is the Bible Society of India, we walk and visit the St. Mark's Cathedral which is a hop away. St. Mark's Cathedral, dedicated to Saint Mark the Evangelist, is noted for its English Baroque architecture and inspired by the 17th century St Paul's Cathedral of London. Built initially in 1812 but went through massive reconstruction 1927 because of a major fire which broke out in 1923. One of the important possessions of the Cathedral is the pipe organ which was installed as a gift by Avis F Cowdrey of the Cowdrey family (father of former English Cricket Captain Colin Cowdrey), in memory of his parents in 1929. If entry to the Church is not possible for some reason, we see it from outside. From here, we walk to the Statue of Queen Victoria which takes around 5 minutes.
20 minutes here
The Statue of Queen Victoria is located at one of the entrances of Cubbon Park. The statue was unveiled on 5 February 1906 by the then Prince of Wales, the future King George V. The statue was raised out of funds raised by the residents of the Bangalore Civil and Military Station and contributions made by Krishna Raja Wadiyar IV, the Maharaja of Mysore. This Statue of Queen Victoria is one of the five of the original 50 statues of Queen Victoria which were installed in British India, to still stand at its original location. From here we walk inside the Cubbon park, parallel to the Queen's road for about 10 minutes.
15 minutes here
Edward VII reigned as the King of the United Kingdom and the British Dominions and Emperor of India between 1901 and 1910, following his mother Queen Victoria's death in 1901. The statue was unveiled on November 1919 by the then Viceroy and Governor-General of India, Frederic John Napier, Baron Chelmsford.

Vidhana Soudha is the most important landmark of Bangalore. It is the Parliament of the State of Karnataka and the seat of power. It was built in 1956 by Kengal Hanumanthayya, the then Chief Minister. It is very interesting to note that a critical remark made by a Russian delegation member in 1950 prompted the CM to initiate this building. And he chose to build it right opposite the British vestige in a way to dominate it. Built in neo-dravidian architecture, Vidhana Soudh can be considered as one of the Top 10 parliament buildings in the World. This building can only be seen from the outside since entry is not allowed.
15 minutes here
Attara Kacheri represents the Colonial past of India. This building was built by the British in 1864 to house their Administrative machinery in South India. After the Indian Independence, Attara Kacheri served as the Legislature of Mysore State until the construction of Vidhana Soudha. Presently this building houses the High Court of Karnataka. Again this building can be seen only from the outside. After this, a 20 minute walk through the Cubbon Park takes us to the Bangalore Archaeological Museum which is located on other edge of the park.

This 300 acre park serves as the lung space in Central Bangalore. It contributes to Bangalore being called the Garden City of India. The park was created by Major General R. H. Sankey and was called the Meade Park originally after Sir John Meade, the acting Commissioner of Mysore State in 1870. Later it was renamed as Cubbon Park in honor of the longest serving British Commissioner of British Bangalore. The park was further renamed as Sri Chamarajendra Park after the 23rd ruler of Wodeyar dynasty in Mysore. But the park is still popular under the older name "Cubbon Park". Walking through this park, one passes by the statue of Sir Mark Cubbon, Band stand, Sheshadri Iyer memorial library, statue of Chamarajendra Wodeyar the Xth, etc before arriving at the Bangalore Archeological Museum.
30 minutes here
Government Museum of Bangalore was established in 1865 by the Mysore State with the guidance of Surgeon Edward Balfour. It is one of the oldest museums in India and the second oldest museum in South India after the Egmore museum in Chennai. It is now an archaeological museum and has a rare collection of archaeological and geological artifacts including old jewellery, sculpture, coins and inscriptions. The museum is also home to the Halmidi inscription, the earliest known Kannada inscription dated to 450 AD. The Walk ends after the visit of this Museum.

Why this scores 48
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
St Marks Church + Cubbon Park + Vidhana Soudha + Museum = Bangalore Royal Walk: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Bangalore.
How much does St Marks Church + Cubbon Park + Vidhana Soudha + Museum = Bangalore Royal Walk cost?
+
Prices start at $1300 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Bangalore usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does St Marks Church + Cubbon Park + Vidhana Soudha + Museum = Bangalore Royal Walk take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Bangalore is not rushed.
Is St Marks Church + Cubbon Park + Vidhana Soudha + Museum = Bangalore Royal Walk worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 48 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (0/5 across 0 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Bangalore, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule St Marks Church + Cubbon Park + Vidhana Soudha + Museum = Bangalore Royal Walk?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is St Marks Church + Cubbon Park + Vidhana Soudha + Museum = Bangalore Royal Walk suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 5. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 2-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book St Marks Church + Cubbon Park + Vidhana Soudha + Museum = Bangalore Royal Walk?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Bangalore can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Bangalore and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does St Marks Church + Cubbon Park + Vidhana Soudha + Museum = Bangalore Royal Walk start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Bangalore within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Bangalore?
+
On Outty we rank every Bangalore experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Old to New Bangalore Day Tour: Lalbagh, Temple, Market & Palace, Bangalore city tour with English guide & multi language support, Best of Mysore, UNESCO Somnathpur Temple & Srirangapatna Day Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Bangalore?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Bangalore?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
