Boarding point
For a family function in Chintamani, the tempo traveller picks up at 7 am from the apartment gate. Load the bags and gift boxes first, behind the last row, then seat the elders in front. If relatives are spread across the city, pick two points on the east side, since the van leaves on Old Madras Road. Keep a small bag with medicines, snacks and water inside the cabin. Chintamani is about 75 km away, and breakfast is planned at Hoskote.

On the road
The van passes KR Puram about 17 km out. This is the meeting point of Old Madras Road and the Outer Ring Road, a slow junction at peak hours, with the cable stayed bridge over the railway station. Most families drive through without a halt. Relatives arriving by train from the Chennai side can be picked up at KR Puram station on the way. The Kote Venkateshwara temple complex is here, if the elders want a quick darshan on the way back. Hoskote and breakfast are 13 km on.

Breakfast stop
Breakfast for the family is at Hoskote, 30 km out. Highway hotels here serve idli and vada, and the mutton dum biryani of the town is ready from early morning for those who want it. The van parks close to the door, which helps elders, and 30 minutes covers a group this size with the restroom. Hoskote is now a satellite city of Bangalore, so the road up to it is built up. After breakfast the van leaves NH75 at the Hoskote junction and heads north east for Chintamani.

Tea stop
Kaivara Cross comes at 65 km, where a road turns off for the village of Kaiwara. The tempo traveller stays on the main road to Chintamani. If the children need a break, the tea and tender coconut stalls here are handy, and the van can pull onto the side safely. The farmland around belongs to Chikkaballapur district, known for its grapes and for raw silk from Sidlaghatta. From here Chintamani is 10 km, about a quarter of an hour, so ask everyone to get ready.

Drop in town
The tempo traveller drops the family at the hall or house door in Chintamani, a busy taluk town of Chikkaballapur district, earlier part of Kolar district. Lunch in town is a South Karnataka meal, often with ragi mudde. Chakli, nippat and groundnuts from Chintamani are well known, and a few packets make easy return gifts. The town has some of the biggest silk and tomato markets in Karnataka. The driver parks near the venue and stays through the function, ready for the drive home the same night.
Family function in Chintamani, 9 to 20 people? A Bangalore to Chintamani tempo traveller picks everyone up in Bangalore and brings them back the same night. Hire a tempo traveller on rent in Bangalore from Tejas Tours & Travels.

About 75 km one way from Bangalore through KR Puram and Hoskote and then the road past Kaivara Cross, about 150 km for the round trip. A tempo traveller takes about 1.5 hours with a breakfast halt at Hoskote. Starting by 7 am keeps the KR Puram stretch short.
The 12 seater tempo traveller works out to ₹7,200: 300 km at ₹24/km. The driver allowance is ₹500; tolls, parking and GST are billed at actual.
Yes. One way is ₹2 a km more, and the empty return is counted in the quote. You get it in writing first.
Fourteen people fit the 14 or 16 seater. Compare sizes on tempo traveller on rent in Bangalore.
Yes. Both are close to Chintamani. Leave Bangalore by 7 am and you are back by evening.
Hoskote for breakfast on the way out, and for biryani on the way back.
Yes. The van runs on highway up to Hoskote and a decent two lane road beyond. Rain is likely from June to October, and the heavy late season storms usually hit Bangalore in the evening. For a function that ends late, the drive back is easier after the rain clears, so keep an hour of margin.
Behind the last row there is space for one bag per person plus gift boxes and a few saree bags. Sweet boxes ride best on the floor in front of the last row. Do not keep bags on laps or in the aisle. Nothing goes on the roof, so tell us early if the group has extra luggage.
