Taptapani sulphur hot springPadmasambhava Mahavihara at JirangOptional Mahendragiri hill extensionOne driver through the Gajapati hills

South Odisha’s Gajapati hills hide some of the state’s most distinctive stops, and this day tour links them from Berhampur: the forested Taptapani sulphur hot spring and the serene Padmasambhava Mahavihara at Jirang — the largest Buddhist monastery in eastern India — with an optional climb to the ancient Mahendragiri hill temples.

A hill day in the Eastern Ghats

The roads here wind through the Eastern Ghats, so we run this in an SUV or Innova with a driver who knows the ghats. Reach Berhampur first on our Bhubaneswar Airport to Berhampur taxi, and see the Berhampur guide and nearby Tara Tarini and Gopalpur-on-Sea to build a longer south-Odisha trip.

Package FAQ

Berhampur Grand Day Tour — questions

Route, pacing, vehicle and booking.

Where does the Berhampur Grand Day Tour start?

The tour is designed as a day trip from Berhampur. If you are arriving by flight, pair it with our Bhubaneswar Airport to Berhampur taxi (about 175 km) the day before, or fold it into a longer south-Odisha itinerary.

Can all the stops be done in one day?

Taptapani and Jirang combine comfortably into a full day from Berhampur. Mahendragiri is further and on winding hill roads, so we offer it as an optional extension for a longer day or a second day — tell us your priorities and we will pace the route sensibly.

Which vehicle is best for this tour?

We recommend an SUV or Innova Crysta. The Gajapati hill roads are winding, and a higher, more stable vehicle is more comfortable than a sedan for a full day in the Eastern Ghats.

Is the fare fixed?

The price shown is a starting fixed fare for the day covering fuel, tolls, parking and driver allowance. We confirm the exact all-inclusive figure for your vehicle, chosen stops and date over WhatsApp before you travel.
