Home pickup
For a family group going to Kadapa for the urs, a wedding or a family visit, the tempo traveller starts at 5:30 am from one or two homes near Old Madras Road. Bags go behind the last row and the elders sit in front. The van turns off the Kolar highway at Hoskote for the Chintamani road. Kadapa is 260 km away, about five and a half hours with halts. Keep water and snacks for the children within reach.

Breakfast
The family eats breakfast on the edge of Hoskote, half an hour from home, at a roadside hotel where the van can stand by the door. Children usually want idli and coffee; anyone craving something heavier can have the mutton dum biryani that made Hoskote famous. Give it about 25 minutes. Beyond the town the van leaves NH75, which carries on towards Kolar, and takes the two lane road north east through farmland.

Through town
The van passes Chintamani, 80 km out, a taluk town on the Deccan plateau, earlier part of Kolar district. Its silk and tomato markets are among the largest in Karnataka, and the morning market lorries can slow the main road. Children may want the local chakli or groundnuts for the long drive, which the driver can pick up quickly. The Andhra border comes a little after the town, and Madanapalle about 60 km on.

Washroom and tea
Over the border, Madanapalle at 140 km is where the van stops for tea, a restroom and diesel, about fifteen minutes. Rocky hills surround the town, which now runs Annamayya district and trades tomatoes on an enormous scale, so we stay on the bypass in the morning. Silk sarees are woven in a village close by, and mango, tamarind and custard apple fill the stalls in season. Rayachoti lies about 70 km further on NH340.

Water and snacks
Rayachoti, 210 km from Bangalore, is handy for buying drinking water and fruit before the last hour. Dry, rocky hills surround it. Few towns in Andhra Pradesh are older, and the Veerabhadra Swamy temple here, on the Mandavya riverbank, goes back about a thousand years. A short halt helps restless children; otherwise the van keeps rolling. From here NH340 runs straight on to Kadapa, around 50 km away. Keep caps ready for the heat.

Drop at the hall or house
With these halts a tempo traveller takes about five and a half hours. Kadapa is a city south of the Penna river, with the Nallamala and Palkonda hills on three sides, so afternoons can be very hot. Lunch is Andhra meals; ask for less spice for the children, or try the local karam dosa. The name Kadapa comes from gadapa, gateway, as the town stood on the pilgrim path to Tirumala. The driver drops you at the hall or house.
