Pickup at your door
For a buying trip or a family visit to Karur, the car comes to your door at 6 am and reaches Karur by about lunch time. Leaving at six gets you across Silk Board and onto the Electronic City flyover before the commuter rush, and over the Tamil Nadu border at Hosur while the trucks are still parked. Business travellers can work on the back seat; samples and order books go in the boot. Breakfast is at Krishnagiri, about an hour and a half out, and the whole drive is about five hours.
Breakfast
Krishnagiri, close to ninety km out, is the breakfast halt, twenty minutes for four people at a highway hotel. The Hosur check post, where the driver showed the permit, came a little earlier. Krishnagiri is a big junction; the car ignores the turn east for Vellore and stays on NH44 south. In summer the district's mangoes are piled up at every stall, and its factories make pulp and juice from Totapuri fruit. Karur is still about 190 km away.
Tea
Dharmapuri is a ten minute tea stop, around halfway between Krishnagiri and Salem. A coffee here keeps everyone fresh for the Thoppur ghat ahead, a short steep stretch with a bad accident record, where the driver slows right down behind the lorries. Dharmapuri is another mango district, and from March to June the plains get very hot, close to 38 C. The government museum in town shows sculptures from the Adhiyaman era, a short stop on a slow return.
Snack
Salem is a fifteen minute snack halt at a hotel on the highway edge. The city's own street food is the thattu vadai set, flat crisp discs stacked with chutney and toppings. Salem is a big handloom centre, and its silk and fabric carry GI tags, a good comparison if you are in the textile trade. The car stays on NH44 south, while the road to Coimbatore and Kerala turns off here. Karur is about 80 km on.
Lunch
Namakkal makes a good hour's halt for lunch. Vegetarian meals hotels are close to the town centre, and the old fort sits on top of a single rock hillock about 75 m high, visible from the road. Namakkal is known as the Egg City and a transport town, so lorries and their workshops line the highway. Karur lies about 34 km south across the Kaveri. If you are short of time, eat in Karur instead and keep Namakkal for the drive home.
Drop
About five hours after leaving Bangalore, the car drops you at the mill, the shop or the house in Karur and waits nearby. Karur is a textile town of spinning mills and dyeing units, and it is also a hub for building bus bodies; a large share of India's coaches are made here. The town stands where the Amaravathi meets the Kaveri. Summers are hot, from April to June, and the rain is light, mostly in October and November.
A textile buying trip to Karur, or a family visit, with up to seven people? A Bangalore to Karur cab gets you there by lunch if you leave early. Book cab rental in Bangalore with Tejas Tours & Travels; one way taxi or return.
Route | One way | Karur and back | Time by cab |
|---|---|---|---|
Bangalore to Karur via Salem and Namakkal | About 280 km | About 560 km | About 5 hr with stops |
For Karur we plan 2 days. At 300 km a day the bill is for 600 km; the trip itself is about 560 km. A one way drop is ₹2 a km over the round trip rate, quoted on request. AC, fuel and a driver who knows the road are part of the fare. Extra: driver allowance ₹350 to ₹400 a day, plus tolls, the Tamil Nadu permit, parking and GST at cost. A car's km rate pays for fuel, the driver and AC; driver allowance is extra each day.
Vehicle | Rate per km | 2 days, 600 km | 3 days, 900 km | 4 days, 1,200 km |
|---|---|---|---|---|
₹12 | ₹7,900 | ₹11,850 | ₹15,800 | |
₹14 | ₹9,100 | ₹13,650 | ₹18,200 | |
₹18 | ₹11,600 | ₹17,400 | ₹23,200 | |
₹20 | ₹12,800 | ₹19,200 | ₹25,600 |
Totals are the km fare plus the day driver allowance. Extra: night driver allowance (₹350 to ₹400 a night, by size), tolls, parking and GST. Shared by 7, 3 days in the Toyota Innova Crysta is about ₹2,740 a person.
Count heads and bags. Four light travellers fit a Dzire; four with suitcases are happier in an Innova. Six or seven people need the Innova Crysta. The Toyota Etios has a slightly bigger boot than the Dzire. For a bigger group, the Bangalore to Karur tempo traveller works out cheaper.
Eight or more people? The Bangalore to Karur tempo traveller. Going further south? See the Bangalore to Trichy cab.
Cancellation: no charge more than 72 hours before pickup; see the cancellation policy for the rest.

We (15 families) hired a bus from Tejas to one of the resort at Kanakpura. Interacted with Lakshmi madam and requested her to provide a good Cab . The bus reached at exact time for pickup, the bus was extremely good and looked a new one only. Thanks Tejas team and Lakshmi madam, it was a wonderful experience and I would definitely recommend to avail their services.

Karur is roughly 280 km south of Bangalore. The car follows NH44 past Krishnagiri, Dharmapuri, Salem and Namakkal, then crosses the Kaveri, and going and coming adds up to about 560 km. Expect around five hours at the wheel each way, with a breakfast halt and a few short breaks.
A Innova Crysta is ₹12,000 for 2 days (600 km at ₹20/km), plus ₹800 driver allowance. Tolls, the Tamil Nadu permit, parking and GST are extra, at actual.
Fine. A Bangalore to Karur one way taxi costs ₹2 more per km than the return rate; the car has to come back, so that run is counted.
The Innova Crysta: higher seats, easy to get in and out. Compare on cab rental in Bangalore.
The textile shops are in Karur itself. The driver waits while you shop.
It is about 560 km in all, so it is a long day. Most people stay one night.
Pick a date between November and February if you can. The months from April to June are the hottest, and touring mills and markets in that heat is draining. Because Karur lies in the lee of the Western Ghats, the town receives little rain, roughly 600 mm in a year and mostly in October and November. March is usually bone dry.
You can. Most of the road home is the four lane NH44, lit near the towns. If you leave Karur around six in the evening, you should be in Bangalore by about eleven, with one coffee break at Krishnagiri. The only stretch that needs extra care after dark is the Thoppur slope, where loaded lorries crawl, and the driver takes it gently.
