Day 1: Vande Bharat Express Transit, Coastal Temples & St. Mary’s Island
Evening Rail Boarding & Hotel Check-in
Board the high-speed Vande Bharat Express (20632) from Ernakulam Junction at 06:45 PM, enjoying smooth rail travel north toward Mangaluru (arriving at 00:45 AM). Meet your tour representative at the station for a 1-hour drive to Udupi, followed by hotel check-in and overnight rest.
Sacred Shrines & Coastal Beach Sunset
After a hotel breakfast, visit the famous Udupi Sri Krishna Temple, followed by visits to the historic Anantheshwara Temple and Chandramouleshwara Temple. In the evening, head to Malpe Beach and take a boat excursion to view the unique geological formations of St. Mary’s Island. Return to the hotel for an overnight stay in Udupi.
Pro-Tip: Wear slip-on footwear for easy removal when visiting temples along the coastal route.
Day 2: Mookambika Devi Darshan & Kodachadri Peak Jeep Safari
Morning Pilgrimage in Kollur
Enjoy an early morning breakfast before proceeding to the ancient town of Kollur. Pay homage and seek blessings at the revered Mookambika Devi Temple.
Off-Road Jeep Trek to Sarvajna Peetha
After darshan, head toward the dense forests of Kodachadri. Board a 4×4 off-road jeep to navigate the rugged mountain terrain, followed by a guided trek to the serene hilltop Sarvajna Peetha—where Adi Shankara meditated. Enjoy panoramic views of the Western Ghats before returning to Udupi for an overnight stay.
