Gate pickup
Elders going to Kadapa ride best when the day starts unhurried, so the Urbania arrives at 6 am and the family loads at the building gate, since a van of this height rarely fits under a basement slab. Seats recline, the roof is high, and the cabin is quiet. Medicines, a water bottle and a light shawl belong in the seat pocket. From Old Madras Road the van swings off at Hoskote towards Chintamani. Kadapa lies 260 km ahead, and the first meal comes within the hour.
Breakfast
First halt is a sit down tiffin in Hoskote, about 30 km from the city. The driver chooses a hotel where the van can stand right at the entrance, so a grandparent with a stick walks only a few steps. Soft idli and coffee are the easy choices; Hoskote is better known for its mutton dum biryani, if anyone wants that instead. Twenty minutes is plenty. The Chennai expressway begins near here, though this route branches away from NH75 towards the north east.
Drive on
Chintamani, at 80 km, is a busy taluk town, and the Urbania goes through it without a halt unless someone asks. Market trucks loaded with tomatoes make the main street slow in the morning, and the town also trades a great deal of silk. Crisp chakli and nippat from here are good snacks to keep in the van for later. Beyond the town the road leaves Karnataka and the land turns drier; the cool cabin and drawn curtains keep elders comfortable through it.
Tea and restroom
Across the border, at 140 km, Madanapalle is the stop for tea and a clean restroom. We use a tea point on the bypass, not the crowded market area. Rocky hills ring the town, which now serves as the seat of Annamayya district and handles a vast tomato trade. A story often told here is that Tagore put Jana Gana Mana into English at a local college in 1919. Fifteen minutes, then NH340 leads on towards Rayachoti.
Short halt
At 210 km the Urbania reaches Rayachoti, counted among the oldest towns of Andhra Pradesh. Beside the Mandavya river stands a Veerabhadra Swamy temple roughly a thousand years old, close enough to the road for a quiet darshan if elders wish. Two national highways, NH40 and NH340, cross in the town. Outside, the country is bare and rocky, so the curtains stay drawn. Around 50 km remain to Kadapa. Elders can start getting ready.
Door drop
In Kadapa the Urbania pulls up at the hotel, house or hall door. Hills, the Nallamala on one side and the Palkonda on another, close the city in on three sides, and the Penna flows to its north, so the afternoons are hot; plan a rest after lunch. Ragi sangati with a country chicken curry is the local plate, and simple Andhra meals suit elders. People here say the name comes from gadapa, the doorway to Tirumala.
Taking elders to Kadapa for the dargah, a family visit or Vontimitta, 8 to 16 people? A Bangalore to Kadapa Force Urbania is quieter than a regular van on the 260 km. Book Force Urbania on rent in Bangalore with Tejas Tours & Travels.

Bangalore to Pondicherry
We recently completed our Pondicherry trip with Tejas Tours and Travel Company, and overall we had a very good experience. Shashikala coordinated with us from enquiry to booking and throughout the trip. She was well-communicated, supportive, and checked in with us daily to ensure everything was fine.

About 260 km from Bangalore by Old Madras Road and Hoskote, then Chintamani, Madanapalle and Rayachoti, so about 520 km for the round trip. The Force Urbania takes about 5.5 hours with a breakfast halt at Hoskote and a tea stop at Madanapalle.
At ₹40/km for 600 km (2 days) the fare is ₹24,000. Allowance ₹1,400, plus tolls, permits and GST at actual.
Yes. A drop is ₹2 a km over the round trip rate, counting the empty return, shown before you pay.
The 12 seater, or the 13 seater with a spare seat for bags. All sizes are on Force Urbania on rent in Bangalore.
On urs days, very. Fix one meeting point; the Urbania waits on the main road.
Yes, the gorge makes a separate half day from Kadapa. Add the km and one night.
November to February, when the plains are cool. March to June is very hot in Rayalaseema, so travel early and rest at noon. The rains come from late June to the end of the year, and the roads stay open, though the driver slows in heavy showers.
Yes. A folded wheelchair or walker fits behind the last row with the bags; tell us when booking. Keep medicines and water at the seat. The driver helps elders in and out at every halt. A cushion helps on the smaller roads after Madanapalle.
