Meet like-minded people in Bengaluru
On your own in Bengaluru? Check in for the days you're there, say what you're open to, and other travellers and locals who chose to be seen can ask to join. They see your city, never your exact spot.
Bengaluru is India's tech capital, known for its pleasant climate, craft breweries, gardens and young, international crowd. Solo travellers find it easy to meet people at breweries, cafés and weekend activities. Travellers and young professionals gather in Indiranagar and Koramangala, and in the green spaces of Cubbon Park and Lalbagh Botanical Garden.
Meeting people in Bengaluru: what works
- Stay in Indiranagar or Koramangala, which are lively, safe neighbourhoods with plenty of cafés and breweries.
- Join weekend activities in Cubbon Park, such as runs, yoga and community meetups.
- Try a weekend trek to Nandi Hills, a popular sunrise trip with groups.
- Look for start-up and tech meetups, which are frequent and welcome newcomers.
Stay safe
Traffic can be very slow, so plan extra travel time, use app-based cabs and autos, and drink bottled or filtered water.
Meet in public places, tell a friend where you’re going, and never send money to someone you met online.
