Nagarhole National Park
Nagarhole National Park, officially known as Rajiv Gandhi National Park, is one of India's premier tiger reserves and a part of the Nilgiri Biosphere Reserve. Located on the northwestern edge of Coorg, the park spans over 640 square kilometres of dense deciduous and semi-evergreen forests teeming with wildlife. Safari visitors can spot tigers, leopards, wild elephants, Indian gaur, dholes, sambar deer, and an extraordinary variety of birds including the Indian grey hornbill and the crested serpent eagle. Jeep safaris and boat rides along the Kabini River backwaters are the most popular ways to explore the park. The golden light of dawn safaris offers the best wildlife sightings. Nagarhole is best visited between October and May. A trip to Coorg is incomplete without a morning or evening safari in this spectacular national park.
Madikeri Fort
The fort dates from the late seventeenth century, was rebuilt in granite by Tipu Sultan and now holds a small museum. Ten minutes away, the 1820 Omkareshwara temple blends Kerala, Islamic and Gothic elements around a tank full of fish. Both are compact, making them the sensible fillers when weather closes in on the viewpoints.
Chelavara Falls
Chelavara Falls is a hidden gem in Coorg that remains relatively undiscovered compared to the more popular Abbey Falls and Iruppu Falls. Located near Kakkabe village in the southern part of Kodagu, the waterfall drops about 25 metres over a series of rocky ledges surrounded by thick riparian forest. The trek to the falls passes through coffee and pepper plantations, adding a fragrant, sensory layer to the experience. Unlike busier tourist spots, Chelavara offers a quiet, peaceful atmosphere that is perfect for travellers seeking solitude in nature. The water is crystal clear and cool, ideal for a refreshing dip during summer months. The approach road to Chelavara is narrow and best navigated in a smaller vehicle or on foot. This is an ideal destination for photography enthusiasts and nature lovers who enjoy off-the-beaten-path experiences in the hills.
Coffee Plantation Estate Tour
A coffee plantation tour is not just an activity in Coorg — it is an essential cultural experience that defines the region. Kodagu produces about 30% of India's total coffee output, and the district is blanketed with sprawling Arabica and Robusta estates interspersed with silver oak, orange groves, pepper vines, and cardamom shrubs. Many homestays and resorts in Coorg offer guided plantation walks where guests learn about the coffee-growing process — from seed to cup — including planting, harvesting, pulping, drying, and roasting. Walking through the estates in the early morning mist, with the smell of coffee blossoms in the air and bird calls echoing through the canopy, is an unforgettable sensory experience. Several estates also offer freshly brewed Coorg coffee that bears no resemblance to what you get in a city cafe. Do not leave Coorg without at least one plantation visit.

Collecting the team
Send every flight number. We set the departure by the last arrival, and if any flight is delayed the mini bus waits without a waiting charge; a changed flight just moves its pickup. The airport handled about 44.5 million passengers last year, so the halls are crowded at all hours; fix one meeting pillar or gate number with the coordinator. The driver then walks the team from the arrival exit to the parking zone. Cancellation follows our one 72 hour policy.
Out to the ring road
The mini bus runs down the airport road past Yelahanka and turns at Hebbal, about 25 km out, where the flyovers stand beside Hebbal Lake. From there the ring road and the NICE Road take it round the city to the Mysore expressway. Hebbal was once the northern end of Bangalore, and it is still the slowest point on this stretch at office hours. For 20 people with bags, a landing before 7 am saves an hour of traffic here.
Group breakfast
Maddur, about 120 km out, is the group breakfast stop. The bigger hotels on the old road seat 20 together and have room for a mini bus. Next to the highway in Maddur taluk stands the Shivapura Satyagraha Soudha, built in memory of the 1938 flag satyagraha, which a team can see from the road. Maddur vada is fried fresh at most counters. Allow 35 minutes, count heads, and the bus rejoins the expressway.
Tipu's tomb
Srirangapatna is about 165 km from the airport. The Gumbaz, a white domed tomb holding Hyder Ali, his wife and Tipu Sultan, is about 3 km off the expressway and closes by about 6 pm. A team that landed early can spend 45 minutes there; Sangama, where the two arms of the Kaveri meet, is about a kilometre further on. Most groups save both for the return and keep moving round Mysore on the ring road.
Short halt
Hunsur is about 225 km from the airport and about 45 km past Mysore. Two state highways, SH 86 and SH 90, start here, and the forest office for Nagarhole is also in the town, which matters if the team plans a safari day. A short tea and restroom halt suits a group off an early flight; otherwise the mini bus carries on to Kushalnagar, about 40 km ahead, for lunch.
Lunch for the group
Kushalnagar, about 265 km out, has restaurants that can take 20 at once. Shops on the main road sell Coorg coffee, honey, Ayurvedic oils and home made chocolates, fair priced and good for team gifts. Kushalnagar has no railway, and its KSRTC bus station is busy with night arrivals, so if any team member comes by bus later, this is where we collect them. Keep 45 minutes before the last climb to Madikeri.
Resort drop
Madikeri is about 295 km from the airport. Most resorts around it take a mini bus up to the reception; for homestays on narrow estate roads the bus stops at the main road and the homestay sends a jeep for bags. Dinner at a Kodava stay may bring bembale curry of bamboo shoot in season, a vegetarian dish worth trying. Winter mornings drop to about 11 C in January, so the team should pack a jacket from November to February.
A team of twenty flying in for a Coorg offsite, or wedding guests landing for a function in Madikeri? This page covers the Bangalore Airport to Coorg Mini Bus trip: route, stops, fares and places to see. One mini bus takes the group from KIA arrivals to the resort, round Bangalore and past Mysore. Our mini bus on rent in Bangalore service has done such runs since 2009.
Route | One way | Coorg and back | Time by mini bus |
|---|---|---|---|
Bangalore Airport to Coorg via Hebbal, Hunsur and Kushalnagar | About 295 km | About 590 km | About 6.5 hr with stops |
KIA to Coorg and the mini bus coming back is about 590 km, so the bill is for two days and 600 km. Every extra day on the trip has a 300 km minimum. A drop only costs ₹2 more per km. Add the daily driver allowance, plus tolls, parking and GST as paid. The per km rate covers fuel and the driver, with the driver allowance on top for each day. Both AC and non-AC mini buses are available; the rate depends on which you pick.
Vehicle | Round trip rate | Coorg and back, 2 days (600 km) | Driver allowance | Allowance for 2 days |

If the team stays in Bangalore the first night, use our mini bus on rent in KIA Airport page or the 25 seater mini bus on rent in KIA Airport. Group leaving from the city? Book the Bangalore to Coorg mini bus. More than 25? The Bangalore Airport to Coorg bus.
Cancellation: no charge more than 72 hours before pickup; see the cancellation policy for the rest.

Madikeri, the main town of Coorg, is about 295 km from Bangalore Airport. The mini bus goes by Hebbal, the NICE Road, the Mysore expressway, Hunsur and Kushalnagar, about 590 km for the round trip. With breakfast at Maddur and lunch at Kushalnagar, the drive takes about 6.5 hours. Resorts outside town add some km.
A 20 seater is ₹34/km, and 600 km over two days makes ₹20,400. Driver allowance of ₹700 a day, tolls, parking and GST are on top. Split twenty ways, about ₹1,020 each before tolls.
Yes, for the last flight, with no waiting charge. If someone shifts to a later flight, tell us and we reschedule the pickup. Cancellations are as per our cancellation policy.
Most resorts, yes. A few homestays on estate tracks need a jeep for the last part.
The 25 seater, so the spare seats hold bags. The full size list is on mini bus on rent in Bangalore.
The same mini bus brings the group back. Start nine hours before the first domestic flight in the group.
The expressway and the Hunsur road stay open in normal monsoons. The slow part is the last climb from Kushalnagar to Madikeri, with fog and wet bends in June, July and August, so the mini bus drives it in daylight. When Harangi dam opens its gates in heavy rain, low areas of Kushalnagar have flooded, and we check before planning lunch there.
Up to Mysore, yes; the expressway is fine at night. Inside Kodagu we do not plan night runs with 20 people, because the roads have unmarked speed breakers, loaded lorries and animals after dark, and estate roads are hard to find. We suggest a night in Mysore and an early start, reaching the resort by late morning.
