Office or home
The Urbania starts from one home or office gate at 6:30 am for a group of eight to sixteen. Evening rain in the wet months often jams the city at peak hour, so a morning start and an afternoon return work best for a Hiriyur trip. The van takes Tumkur Road over the Peenya flyover. A van of this height loads at the gate, not in a basement, so keep bags ready at the door. The reclining seats make the drive of three and a half hours easy for elders.

Through the toll
Nelamangala comes about 25 km out, a taluk headquarters on the edge of the city where the highway splits. NH75 goes west to Hassan and Mangalore, and the Urbania keeps north on NH48. There is no halt here, as breakfast is better at Tumakuru, but the driver can stop at a fuel station if anyone needs a restroom. The road beyond is a wide highway, and with the AC on and the windows up the ride is quiet. Settle in for the 45 km to breakfast.

Drive on
Dobbaspet, also called Sompura, comes 50 km out, and the Urbania drives straight through on NH48. The Satellite Town Ring Road from Doddaballapur ends here, tolled at Hulikunte, so a member joining from the airport side can be met at this junction instead of coming into the city. Lorries from the factories turn in and out on weekdays, and the driver watches the junction. Tumakuru is about 19 km on. Elders can rest, as the next halt is breakfast.

Breakfast
Breakfast is near Tumkur (Tumakuru), 70 km out, and the van stops at the door so elders hardly walk. Thatte idli is the thing to order here. The city stands at about 800 m, so winter mornings still feel fresh. Close by sits India's first mega food park, opened in 2014. Twenty five minutes is plenty for the group, and Sira, the next town, is about 50 km up NH48. The van parks right at the door.

Short halt
Sira comes 120 km from Bangalore, and the Urbania stops for ten minutes of tea and a washroom. Its broad step lets elders climb down and back without strain. Three centuries ago Sira was the seat of a Mughal province, and the Malik Rihan dargah still stands in the town. No trains run along this part of NH48, so road is the only way in. The country is dry and open. Hiriyur is 35 km further, about half an hour.

Drop at the door
The Urbania reaches Hiriyur roughly three and a half hours after pickup, breakfast included, and stops at your door. This taluk town lies on the Vedavati river at about 630 m. Local hotels make benne dose and plain meals that suit a group of ten. For a curious afternoon, ask about the pillow lava rocks at Mardihalli, which the Geological Survey of India lists as a National Geological Monument. On a drop only trip, the driver rests and then heads home.
Elders or an official team of 8 to 16 going to Hiriyur and back in a day? A quiet cabin and reclining seats make the 155 km easier in a Bangalore to Hiriyur Force Urbania. We arrange Force Urbania on rent in Bangalore with a driver, one rate for every size.

Hiriyur is 155 km up NH48 from Bangalore, which makes about 310 km for a return trip. The Urbania passes Nelamangala, Tumakuru and Sira on the way and stops once for breakfast and once for tea. Allow about 3.5 hours each way on this smooth highway.

The 16 seater; the rate is the same in every size. Compare them on Force Urbania on rent in Bangalore.
Yes, it is near Tumakuru, just off NH48. Allow about 45 minutes.
Yes, NH48 all the way, four to six lanes. The Urbania keeps an easy speed, so elders can rest.
Yes. November to February is the most comfortable time on this road. Bangalore mornings are cool, and Hiriyur's winter nights fall to about 18 C, so nobody suffers in the heat. March and April are the hottest months there. In October and November, plan the return before evening, as heavy evening rain in Bangalore slows the last part of the drive.
Yes. The luggage space behind the last row takes suitcases and gift boxes for a group of ten to twelve. For sixteen people with big bags, tell us, and we keep the load to soft bags. Fragile items such as sweet boxes ride best on the floor in front of a seat, where they do not slide.
