Orissa Tour Overview
Orissa, now officially called Odisha, lies on the Bay of Bengal. Its best known circuit links Bhubaneswar, Konark and Puri: ancient temples, the Sun Temple chariot and the Jagannath Temple, one of the four Char Dham. Chilika Lake, quiet beaches such as Gopalpur-on-Sea and the Hirakud Dam add variety for longer trips.
We plan the trip around your dates, group and budget. A 4 day plan covers Bhubaneswar, Konark and Puri, and you can add Chilika, Cuttack or south and west Odisha. Pilgrims from Odisha who also want to visit Mata Vaishno Devi can join our Vaishno Devi helicopter package from Bhubaneswar, a 3 day trip with the Katra to Sanjichhat helicopter.

Travel Tips for Orissa
- Check the weather. The Odisha coast can see cyclones, mostly in October and November. Look at the forecast before you travel and keep a spare day.
- Dress modestly at temples. Cover shoulders and knees. Shoes are left outside, and stone floors get very hot at midday, so carry socks.
- Check temple rules. Entry rules, timings, dress code and mobile or camera limits at the Jagannath Temple are set by the temple administration.
- Start early. Konark and the Bhubaneswar temples are most pleasant in the morning, before the heat and crowds build up.
- Book early for festivals. Hotels in Puri fill up for Rath Yatra, weekends and winter holidays.
- Be careful at the beach. Swim only in marked areas and follow lifeguard advice, as currents at Puri can be strong.
- Carry photo ID. Every traveller should keep a valid ID for hotel check-in and entry tickets.
This is a likely schedule. The tour manager may adjust it for weather, road conditions or local rules.
