Best time to visit
Bangalore's mild weather means the park works well for most of the year. October to February is the most comfortable, while March to May is warmer and good for the water park. During the June to September monsoon, some outdoor rides may pause in heavy rain. Weekdays other than Monday are usually the quietest; weekends, long weekends and school holidays are crowded and priced higher.
Food inside the park
Outside food and drinks are not allowed. The park has several restaurants and snack counters serving South Indian meals, North Indian dishes, fast food and drinks. Eat a light lunch around noon, then spend the afternoon in the water park.
