One gate
For a family group of nine to twenty going to Hiriyur, the van collects everyone from a single gate at about 6:30 am. Each toll is paid as we cross it through FASTag, because the yearly FASTag pass is meant for private cars and not for yellow board vehicles like ours, so nobody waits at a booth with cash. Bags go at the back, and a box of snacks and water near the front helps the children. Leaving early also clears the Peenya stretch of Tumkur Road before the office traffic.
Toll and junction
The van crosses the Nelamangala toll plaza, officially Doddakarenahalli, about 25 km out, and passes the town without stopping. Just after the plaza the road for Hassan branches off as NH75, and the tempo traveller stays on NH48. The town is a taluk headquarters, and its houses and shops thin out quickly along the highway. Children usually doze on this smooth stretch, so the first halt is breakfast at Tumakuru, about 45 km ahead. Keep the snack box handy until then.
Industrial stretch
At Dobbaspet, 50 km out, the van passes the KIADB industrial area, where engineering and automobile units send lorries onto the highway on weekdays, so the driver keeps a safe gap. SH3 goes north from here to Koratagere and Madhugiri, a road for another trip. Elders may like to know the town takes its name from Major General Dobbs, an early British collector of the Tumkur district. No stop is planned here. Tumakuru is about 19 km on, and the group can start thinking about breakfast.
Breakfast
Breakfast for the family is at Tumkur (Tumakuru), about 70 km out, at a highway hotel with room for the tempo traveller in front. Thatte idli and vada are the usual order, and half an hour covers fifteen people. People call this district Kalpataru Nadu for its coconut palms, and areca, ragi and groundnut fields fill the farmland around the city too. The railway station is in the centre, on the Bengaluru to Hubballi line, useful if a relative joins here by train. From here Sira is about 50 km on.
Leg stretch
Sira comes about 120 km out, the one third point of the drive to Chitradurga and the last town before Hiriyur. A ten minute halt lets the children stretch and the elders use the restroom at a fuel station. Small hotels do idli, dosa and meals if anyone is still hungry. The town stands at about 662 m, a little lower than Bangalore, and the land around is dry and open. Kaggaladu, the painted stork sanctuary, is about 10 km off. Hiriyur is about 35 km more.
Arrival
The tempo traveller reaches Hiriyur in about three and a half hours with breakfast and a tea halt. The driver drops the group at the house or the function hall, and the van can wait or return. Hiriyur stands at about 630 m on the Vedavati river. Hotels in town serve benne dose and simple meals, so a group can eat together. Villages around, such as Adivala, grow coconuts in large numbers, and tender coconut is easy to find. On the weekly santhe day the centre is busy, so the van parks outside it.

Bangalore to Shirdi
I had an excellent experience with Teja Travel. The vehicle was clean, comfortable, and very well maintained. The driver was polite, punctual, and knew the routes perfectly, which made our trip smooth and enjoyable. Their service was professional from start to finish, and the pricing was also very reasonable. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable travel vehicle services. 👍

Hiriyur sits 155 km up NH48 from Bangalore, past Nelamangala, Tumakuru and Sira, and going there and back covers 310 km. Expect about 3.5 hours in a tempo traveller, counting breakfast in Tumakuru and a short Sira halt. It is wide highway nearly all the way, an easy run for a family group.
With ₹24/km for 310 km (1 days), the 12 seater tempo traveller comes to ₹7,440. Driver allowance ₹500; tolls, permits and GST on top.
Yes. One way is quoted at ₹2 a km more, with the return run included, so the number does not change later.
The 12 or 13 seater. See every size on tempo traveller on rent in Bangalore.
Yes. It is about 45 km further up NH48. The extra km are added at the same rate; keep two hours for the fort.
Tumakuru or Sira for breakfast; both have highway hotels with space for a van.
Yes. NH48 is a wide highway, and Chitradurga district beyond Hiriyur is dry, with about 576 mm of rain a year. Bangalore gets its heaviest rain between June and September and sharp evening downpours in October and November, so in those months the slow bit is the city end on the way home. Leave Hiriyur after lunch to be home before the evening downpour.
A snack box, water, a change of clothes and something to do. Breakfast is at Tumakuru, about an hour and a half out, and the Sira halt comes about an hour later, so nobody waits long. Keep motion sickness tablets handy and seat children who feel queasy near a window. A folded pram fits behind the last row of the van.
