Kstdc, Karnataka State Tourism Corporation

We are based at No. 17, Srimuddulingeshwara Nilaya, right in the heart of Siddartha Layout. Being on Kathriguppe Main Road means there is always noise and movement outside our doors. This is the Bsk III Stage area of Bangalore, and if you live around here, you know how busy it gets. Our office is where we handle a lot of the tourism stuff for the state. People come in asking about buses, tours, and hotels across Karnataka. It’s a lot of paperwork and talking on the phone. We aren't a fancy travel agency with glossy brochures everywhere; it’s more of a practical office. The building has a local name, and it feels like a home because it’s a Nilaya. We have desks cluttered with files and maps. The III Phase is a good location, even if the parking is a bit of a nightmare sometimes. We’ve been here at this address, 560085, for quite some time. The team here just wants to get the bookings right and make sure the schedules are followed. We drink a lot of tea from the shop around the corner. It’s a basic operation. We don’t have a big marketing team or anything like that. It’s just us, Kstdc, working out of this spot in Kathriguppe, trying to keep the tourism side of things running smoothly for anyone who walks in. We just handle the everyday business of travel without much fuss or bother.
