Door pickup
Going home to KGF or to a family function, the cab picks you up at 7 am and leaves on Old Madras Road. From the airport or north Bangalore, the ring road via Devanahalli reaches Hoskote without the city. The route then turns off the Kolar highway at Hoskote for Malur and Bangarpet, the usual road to the gold fields. KGF is 95 km away, about an hour and a half in a car. A sedan takes four with bags; for six or seven, book an Innova.
Turn for Malur
At Hoskote, 30 km out, the cab leaves NH75 and takes the road south east to Malur and Bangarpet. Hoskote is where the Bengaluru to Chennai expressway begins too, and its Karnataka section reaches Bethamangala near KGF, a faster but tolled option the driver may use on the way back. The town is known for mutton dum biryani from early morning; on Sundays the queue is long. Our own office is in Hoskote, so help is close by.
Small town
Malur, 50 km out, is a taluk town of Kolar district, about 30 km from Kolar town. The cab drives through on the road to Bangarpet and KGF, the same road used for Kuppam. There is fuel and tea here if anyone needs it, but most cab families keep going, since KGF is only 45 km on. The country around is flat farmland, and the road narrows in the town, so the driver slows down. This stretch is calm on a weekday morning.
Chaat stop
Bangarpet, 80 km out, is the railway junction town for the gold fields, once called Bowringpet. Its pani puri, served with a clear spicy pani of green chilli and ginger, is famous across Karnataka, and a car can stop for a plate in fifteen minutes. The town is also known for rice trading. If a relative is coming by train, Bangarpet station is the place to collect them. From here it is about 15 km to KGF.
Door drop
KGF is the old gold mining township, with Robertsonpet as its headquarters, and the cab drops you at the house or hall door. The mines were closed by the Government of India on 28 February 2001, and the large grey mine dumps around the town are the most visible sign of them today. Many Tamil speaking families and an Anglo Indian community live here, a legacy of the mining years. For a late return, the driver can take the Chennai expressway from Bethamangala back towards Hoskote.
Going home to KGF for a weekend, a family function or a visit to relatives in Robertsonpet? A Bangalore to KGF cab gets two to seven people to Kolar Gold Fields in about two hours, door to door. Book cab rental in Bangalore with Tejas Tours & Travels.
Route | One way | KGF and back | Time by cab |
|---|---|---|---|
Bangalore to KGF via Hoskote, Malur and Bangarpet | About 95 km | About 190 km | About 1.5 hr with stops |
KGF and back is about 190 km, so the car is billed as one 300 km day, our minimum. The spare km easily cover Kotilingeshwara or a round of the mine areas. Fuel, AC and the driver come with the car rate. Driver allowance, tolls, parking and GST are extra at actual. Want a drop only? A Bangalore to KGF one way taxi is ₹2 a km over the round trip rate.
Vehicle | Rate per km | 1 day, 300 km | 2 days, 600 km |
|---|---|---|---|

₹14 | ₹4,550 | ₹9,100 | |
₹18 | ₹5,800 | ₹11,600 | |
₹20 | ₹6,400 | ₹12,800 |
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, 2 days in the Toyota Innova Crysta is about ₹1,830 a person.
Up to four: Dzire or Toyota Etios. Five to seven, or with gifts and bags for a function: Innova Crysta.
Whole family going, 9 or more? The Bangalore to KGF tempo traveller costs less than two cars.

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.

KGF is about 95 km from Bangalore by Old Madras Road to Hoskote, then Malur and Bangarpet, so about 190 km for the round trip. A cab takes about 1.5 hours if it clears KR Puram early. The tolled Chennai expressway from Hoskote to Bethamangala near KGF is another option.
One 300 km day: Dzire ₹3,600, Etios ₹4,200, Innova ₹5,400, Innova Crysta ₹6,000. Add driver allowance, tolls and GST.
Yes. One way is ₹2 a km more than the round trip rate. We confirm the km and the fare before you pay.
Innova Crysta, ₹6,000 for the day plus ₹400 allowance. All cars are on cab rental in Bangalore.
The mines are closed and the shafts are not open to visitors. The driver can take you past the old headframes and mine colonies.
Yes. KGF to Bangalore via Kolar is a little longer. Kolaramma and Someshwara temples fit on that road.
Often, yes. Its Karnataka section from Hoskote to Bethamangala near KGF opened in December 2024 and is built for 120 km/h, with toll collected since September 2025 at the Hedigenabele plaza. The old road via Malur and Bangarpet passes through the towns. In the rains from June to October the expressway is the smoother choice.
Yes. The road from KGF through Bangarpet and Malur, or the expressway from Bethamangala, is fine at night, and city traffic after 9 pm is light. Tell us the expected end time when booking, so the driver rests during the day and is ready when the function ends.
