Odisha is renowned for its festivals, each offering a unique blend of spirituality, culture, and folklore. Whether you’re drawn to the grand Rath Yatra in Puri or the tribal festivals in the hills of Koraput, our Odisha festival tour packages allow you to witness the diverse cultural events that the state has to offer. Here are the top reasons why you should choose our festival tour packages:
1. Puri Rath Yatra – The Festival of Chariots
One of the most famous festivals in Odisha, the Puri Rath Yatra (Chariot Festival) is an iconic event that attracts millions of devotees from around the world. Every year, the deities Lord Jagannath, Balabhadra, and Subhadra are taken in grand chariots from the Jagannath Temple to the Gundicha Temple. The procession is an awe-inspiring sight, with thousands of devotees pulling the massive chariots through the streets of Puri. Our Odisha festival tour packages offer a front-row seat to this spectacular event, allowing you to experience the spirituality and cultural grandeur that surrounds the festival.

Durga Puja is another major festival celebrated with fervor in Odisha. The festival, dedicated to Goddess Durga, is marked by elaborate rituals, artistic pandals (temporary temples), cultural performances, and grand feasts. The vibrant celebrations in Bhubaneswar, Cuttack, and other cities are a treat for visitors. Our Odisha festival tour packages during Durga Puja allow you to witness the intricate traditions, art, and dance performances that bring the festival to life.
