One assembly point
A coach for Kadapa sets off at 5 am from a single boarding point in east Bangalore that has room for a 50 seater to stand. Trying to load a large group in the crowded centre wastes time, since buses get only moments at the roadside there. Each bag carries a tag with a name and phone number before it goes into the hold. The coach covers the 260 km through Hoskote, Chintamani, Madanapalle and Rayachoti in about six and a half hours.

Breakfast
Breakfast for the coach is at Hoskote, 30 km out. The order is placed the previous evening with a highway hotel that has bus parking, and the group gets 40 minutes for food and the restroom line. A full coach should not try the famous biryani stalls, which draw Sunday crowds and stay closed before sunrise near the toll. Count heads at the door. The coach then turns away from NH75 onto a two lane road.

No halt
The coach rolls on through Chintamani, 80 km out, a taluk town of the Deccan plateau where silk and tomatoes are traded in some of the largest markets in Karnataka. Morning lorries slow the main street, and the driver keeps a patient pace. Chakli and roasted groundnuts from the town make good snacks for the return. Shortly after Chintamani the coach enters Andhra Pradesh, and the next halt is about an hour away.

Tea and restroom
At Madanapalle, 140 km out, the coach halts for twenty minutes for tea and restrooms at a pump or tea point on the bypass, where it can stand without blocking traffic. Tomato lorries crowd the town centre, which we avoid. Madanapalle now serves as the district seat of Annamayya. Take the head count again here. The road ahead is NH340, running through dry, open country towards Rayachoti. Anyone who missed breakfast can find pesarattu at the tea points.

Drive through
Rayachoti, 210 km out, is crossed without a halt. This ancient town on the Mandavya river has a Veerabhadra Swamy temple said to be a thousand years old, and until the end of 2025 it was the district seat of Annamayya. NH40 meets NH340 here, so heavy trucks are common and the coach moves at a steady pace. Kadapa is about 50 km and an hour away. Use the time to tell the group the plan for Kadapa.

Group drop
At Kadapa the group steps down at the hotel or venue. The old city has tight lanes, so the coach stops on a main road and waits at an open ground. Kadapa sits south of the Penna with hills on three sides, which makes afternoons very warm. Book lunch for the whole group in advance; meals hotels here serve Rayalaseema plates with ragi sangati and natu kodi. Ask the driver for the pickup point before the group disperses.
Is a jamaat, a wedding party or a village group of 30 to 50 going to Kadapa? Book a bus on rent in Bangalore from Tejas Tours & Travels: the Bangalore to Kadapa bus carries the whole group the 260 km with one driver.

About 260 km from Bangalore by Old Madras Road and Hoskote, then Chintamani, Madanapalle and Rayachoti, so about 520 km for the round trip. A bus takes about 6.5 hours with a breakfast halt at Hoskote and a tea stop at Madanapalle.
2 days and 600 km at ₹54/km make ₹32,400. Driver allowance ₹2,000; tolls, permits, parking and GST are extra.
Yes, if you ask. The one way rate is ₹2 a km above the return rate, and the empty run home is in the written quote.
The 33 seater fits thirty with bags. Every size is listed on bus on rent in Bangalore.
On the main road, a short walk from the gate. Urs days bring big crowds, so keep one meeting point.
Yes. Vontimitta is about 25 km from Kadapa, with wide temple grounds. Add an hour and the km.
November to February is cool and best for a big group. March to June is very hot on the plains after Madanapalle, so start early and keep water cans in the bus. The rains come from late June, and the roads stay open all year.
Seat them in the front rows. There are halts at Hoskote and Madanapalle, so nobody sits for more than about three hours. Keep their medicines and water in a seat bag, not in the hold, and a cap for the heat at Kadapa.
