October to February; Dasara season is special but crowded
City centre/Devaraja Market area for access; Gokulam for cafes/yoga vibe
Mysore Palace and Chamundi Hills
Dasara changes crowds, prices and road closures.
Gokulam is a better base for cafe/yoga travellers than palace-only tourists.
Daily per-person planning bands: budget ₹1,800, mid-range ₹3,500, premium ₹6,800; .
Use the seed per-person bands as a starting point, then update with live stay, transport and activity prices before collecting money.
Split shared stays, cabs and group activities equally. Keep personal shopping, upgrades and optional experiences separate.
Agree on stay budget and local transport style first, because these usually create the biggest variance for groups.
Start a shared board for Mysore — vote on dates, split costs and keep everyone on the same page.
