It was my first visit to Nandi Hills. Really enjoyed the services from Banbanjara. worth to stay here. The food was delicious and sightseeing from camp to nandi hills is really mesmerizing.
It was a nice experience with Banbanjara and the thing is that it was my first try with online booking and I'm glad that I have chosen Banbanjara the Nandi was good with friendly staff, music, decent food of buffet system, and other activities Bathroom facilities 🤔 ok ok not baad 3.5⭐
It was a nice experience staying inside Tent and felt comfortable staying. Dinner and breakfast were good. Had a good trekking experience and indoor games. We went on weekdays and no other visitors were present. Check photos for more experience.
I liked the experience, especially the Rock band was amazing. Overall I feel that I would definitely go again in the future.
We have booked for Friday and we were left alone there that was scary. I would suggest booking for Saturday if you don't want to feel lonely there. Staffs were really awesome. Though we are the only customers that day we were allowed to play snooker and foosball for free and not compromised the food as well. They have provided a good dinner and breakfast.
Everything was available as mentioned in the package except the live music which did not happen and the water supply was out for the toilets by the next day morning which can be improved. Will definitely visit again 🙂
Was a memorable trip It was almost a full moon that day. I always wanted to go somewhere with my bf and gaze at the sky full of stars and moon. Luckily we were able to do that. The food campfire the tent. We're so good that it made our day memorable. Thank you so much for that
Our stay with family in a tent accommodation was amazing. Everything was good and the staffs were very caring and supportive. Loved the stay and would recommend it to others.
Thanks to the organizer. Detailed planning was done. The food taste was awesome. The tents were arranged well. Lot of hard work by the organizer and the teams involved. The music stage lighting should have been better. Thanks to Francis and the team. Great job done!
A fun outing, with a hill trek thrown in. Though we went on a weekday, there were groups of other happy youngsters and we made lots of friends. The tents are clean and comfortable, and so are the rooms. And the food was yummy! If you stay in Bangalore, do try it out :)
