From your door
Half past six at your door is early enough; a car reaches Kadiri before the late morning darshan crowd. The driver comes fuelled and takes Bellary Road out to the Hyderabad highway, NH44, which the cab follows as far as Bagepalli before turning off towards Kadiri. The whole trip is about 175 km one way, roughly three hours. Bring flowers from home if you like, though Kadiri itself is known for its jasmine, sold in strings near the temple.

Past the airport
The airport stretch is quick at this hour, with one payment at the Sadahalli toll, Karnataka's busiest, and then the cab slips past Devanahalli. A family that wants tea can stop at a highway stall for five minutes, but breakfast is better in Chikkaballapur, twenty minutes ahead. Keep Devanahalli in mind for the return: the oval fort that Hyder Ali rebuilt, and the place where Tipu Sultan was born, are a kilometre off the road.

Breakfast
Chikkaballapur is the breakfast town, an hour from home. Pick a hotel on the bypass, have idli and coffee, and the family of four is back in the car in twenty minutes. The town is ringed by five hills, and the vineyards of the Nandi valley around it grow Bangalore Blue grapes, a GI tagged variety, which make good travel snacks in season. The hills close by include Skandagiri and Nandi Hills, both for another day. Kadiri is still about two hours away.

Off the highway
At Bagepalli the cab leaves NH44. Routes to Kadiri turn north east here, across country, to join the Hindupur to Kadiri road, NH716G. Before the turn, there is the Bagepalli toll plaza, and fuel stations with restrooms if anyone needs a ten minute break. Bagepalli sits on dry, rocky ground at about 707 m, where groundnut fields stretch between low hills. From here the road is narrower and quieter, with about 75 km to go.

Temple stop
Gorantla is a small town on the Chitravathi river, and its Madhavaraya temple of Vishnu, built in 1354 by Narasimha Saluva of the Vijayanagara empire, is an ASI protected monument. The temple stands only about 100 m from the bus stand, so a car can stop right beside it. Twenty minutes is enough to see the carved pillars of the mandapa. A family running late can skip it and see it on the drive home. Kadiri is about 45 km on.

Close to the gate
About three hours by car. Kadiri sits at about 504 m, warmer than Bangalore, and the temple streets are busy, so the driver drops you near the gate and parks a short way off. Strings of Kadiri jasmine are sold outside for the offering. For breakfast or a snack, local hotels serve the Rayalaseema favourite of uggani with mirchi bajji, quite spicy. The town lies on NH42, so going on to Puttaparthi, about 65 km away, is easy if you want.
Just you and your parents going to Kadiri for darshan? Here is how a Bangalore to Kadiri Cab trip goes, with stops, timing and car rates. A cab is quick on NH44 and parks close to the temple. Book cab rental in Bangalore from Tejas Tours & Travels: a sedan for four, an Innova or Crysta for up to seven.
Route | One way | Kadiri and back | Time by cab |

Bangalore to Kadiri via Devanahalli, Chikkaballapur and Bagepalli | About 175 km | About 350 km | About 3 hr with stops |
A cab is billed per km with a 300 km minimum a day. Kadiri and back is about 350 km, so we bill two days and 600 km. Tolls, parking, GST and the Andhra permit for the car, where needed, are extra. Car rates per km include fuel, driver and AC, and a daily allowance for the driver goes on the bill.
Vehicle | Round trip rate | Kadiri and back, 2 days (600 km) | Driver allowance | Allowance for 2 days |

Two to four with small bags: Swift Dzire. If you want more boot space, the Toyota Etios. Five to seven people: Innova, or the Innova Crysta for elders.
Eight or more in the family? The Bangalore to Kadiri tempo traveller works out cheaper than two cars. For elders who want more room, see the Bangalore to Kadiri Urbania.
Cancellation: no charge more than 72 hours before pickup; see the cancellation policy for the rest.
Kadiri is about 175 km from Bangalore, so roughly 350 km there and back. The cab follows NH44 by Devanahalli and Chikkaballapur to Bagepalli, then leaves the highway for the road through Gorantla. Plan on about three hours each way with a breakfast halt.
For 600 km (two days): Dzire ₹7,200, Etios ₹8,400, Innova ₹10,800, Innova Crysta ₹12,000. Driver allowance, tolls and GST extra.
Yes, the drive is about three hours each way. Billing is still two days, since the km is over 300.
An Innova. The other cars are listed on cab rental in Bangalore.
Only if the car needs it. We add it at actual cost and show it in the quote.
Yes. The airport is on the way, so it adds very little.
The temple's Brahmotsavam, held every year with a large chariot festival, brings the biggest crowds, and the streets near the temple fill up. Weekends are busier than weekdays. If you want a quiet darshan, avoid the festival days and go on a weekday morning. If you are going for the festival, leave Bangalore by 5 am.
Yes. The first stretch from Kadiri to Bagepalli is a smaller road, so we prefer to cover it before it is fully dark, leaving Kadiri by about 5 pm. From Bagepalli the cab is on NH44, a wide highway with steady traffic, and the family is home around 9 pm. The driver takes a tea break on the way.
