Crocodiles in the mangroves 🐊, ancient geometry in stone 🗿, and art that takes a lifetime to master 🎨. Welcome to Odisha.
Why does everyone keep traveling to the same five crowded destinations?
When we hit "reset" on iTravel three months ago, we promised to look deeper into the hinterlands. The result? Our Culture & Wildlife Trail of Odisha—a major highlight of the new 2026-27 Collection.
Odisha doesn't do "superficial." It’s an immersive, raw loop designed for the intentional traveler. Here is what we’ve mapped out for you:
1️⃣ The Monolithic Wonder: Walking the ancient grounds of the Konark Sun Temple and Puri—not just for photos, but to decode the incredible history and architecture written in stone.
2️⃣ The Masterclass: Sitting down on the porch of a local artisan in Raghurajpur for a hands-on workshop in Pattachitra painting, an art form preserved for generations.
3️⃣ The Wild Untamed: Drifting through the massive mangrove forests of Bhitarkanika on a boat safari to spot giant saltwater crocodiles, followed by the peaceful wetlands of Mangalajodi, home to thousands of migratory birds.
We’ve spent the last three months standardizing the boat operators, vetting local historians, and securing the finest heritage stays so you can experience this wild frontier flawlessly.
