Top Rated Bus & Car Rental Services
Kozhikode Beach
The city's evening meeting place. The long promenade fills at sunset with families, and two old piers built in the 19th century, now in ruins, run out into the sea and give kozhikode beach its familiar outline. The stalls here are the best introduction to Malabar snacks: uppilittathu, fruit and vegetables pickled in salted brine, fried mussels and glasses of sulaimani tea. Go after 5 PM for the sunset.
Kappad Beach
About 18 kilometres north, kappad beach is where Vasco da Gama came ashore in May 1498, opening the sea route from Europe to India. A small stone memorial marks the landing. Kappad earned international Blue Flag certification for cleanliness and safety in 2020, and the rocky outcrop at one end is a calm place to watch the waves.
SM Street (Mittai Theruvu)
Sweet Meat Street, the city's old market, takes its name from the halwa shops that lined it in British times. Kozhikodan halwa, made from wheat, jaggery and coconut oil in dozens of colours and flavours, is what every visitor carries home, along with banana chips fried fresh in coconut oil. The street is pedestrianised and busiest in the evening.
Mananchira Square and Tali Shiva Temple
Mananchira is a large freshwater tank built by a Zamorin ruler, now surrounded by a landscaped park and heritage buildings, and it is the calm centre of the old city. A short drive away, the Tali Shiva Temple was the Zamorins' own temple and the venue of the Revathi Pattathanam, a centuries-old assembly where scholars debated and were honoured. Its copper-roofed sanctum and wooden carvings reward a quiet visit; traditional dress is expected.
Kuttichira and Mishkal Mosque
Kuttichira is the old Muslim quarter, built around a large pond and lined with tharavads, traditional joint-family homes. Its landmark is the Mishkal Mosque, a 14th-century multi-storey wooden mosque built by the Arab merchant Nakhuda Mishkal, which looks more like a Kerala temple than a Middle Eastern mosque. It was partly burned in a Portuguese raid in 1510 and later restored. Dress modestly and check visiting hours before entering.
Beypore
About 10 kilometres south, at the mouth of the Chaliyar river, Beypore has built wooden ships called uru for well over a thousand years, supplying traders across the Indian Ocean. Some yards still build them by hand without drawings, and watching the craftsmen is unforgettable. The beach and the long breakwater are a favourite sunset walk, and the town is closely linked with the writer Vaikom Muhammad Basheer, who made his home here.
Kadalundi Bird Sanctuary
About 19 kilometres south, where the Kadalundi river meets the Arabian Sea, this estuary of mangrove islands is a community reserve and one of the best birdwatching spots in north Kerala. Between November and April it fills with migratory terns, gulls, herons and sandpipers. Early morning brings the best sightings.
Thusharagiri Falls
About 50 kilometres east, near Kodencheri at the foot of the Western Ghats, Thusharagiri is a set of three waterfalls, the tallest dropping around 75 metres. A short trek through forest and spice plantations reaches the lower falls, while the upper falls reward a longer walk. It is fullest between June and December and pairs easily with the Thamarassery drive.
Pazhassiraja Museum and Art Gallery
On East Hill, the Pazhassiraja Museum holds murals, bronzes, old coins and megalithic finds from across Malabar. The adjoining Art Gallery and Krishna Menon Museum display paintings by Raja Ravi Varma and Raja Raja Varma alongside personal belongings of V K Krishna Menon.

Departure Point
Your journey to Ooty begins from Bangalore, the gateway to South India's most beloved hill stations. Pick-up is available from any part of the city — Koramangala, Electronic City, Whitefield, Hebbal, Yeshwanthpur, Marathahalli, or Majestic. The most common route out of Bangalore takes you onto NH275, the six-lane Mysore Expressway, which is one of the smoothest and best-maintained national highways in Karnataka. An early departure between 5 AM and 6 AM is strongly advised to clear Bangalore city limits before peak traffic begins. The first 50 km on the expressway are fast, comfortable, and lightly trafficked in the early hours, setting a pleasant tone for the journey ahead. Our drivers are experienced in choosing the optimal departure window and route based on real-time traffic conditions, ensuring that the first stretch of your Bangalore to Ooty road trip is efficient, calm, and enjoyable from the very first kilometre.
Toy Town of Karnataka
The Bangalore–Mysore Expressway makes the first leg quick, especially before 7:00 AM. Ramanagara, with the granite hills made famous by the film Sholay, runs one of the largest silk cocoon markets in Asia, where farmers auction cocoons every morning. A few kilometres on, Channapatna has made lacquered wooden toys for over two centuries, a craft said to have been encouraged by Tipu Sultan with the help of Persian artisans. The toys carry a GI tag and are coloured with natural dyes, which makes them safe for small children. Ask your driver to use the service road if you want to stop at a toy workshop.
Island Fortress of Tipu Sultan
Maddur gave its name to the crisp onion and semolina Maddur vada, still fried fresh along the old highway and a good reason for an early breakfast stop. Mandya, surrounded by sugarcane fields watered by the Krishna Raja Sagar dam, is Karnataka's Sugar City, with jaggery units working through the season. Srirangapatna sits on an island in the Kaveri and was Tipu Sultan's capital until 1799. The Ranganathaswamy Temple, the Daria Daulat Bagh summer palace, Tipu's Gumbaz and the spot where he fell are all a few kilometres off the highway.
Dakshina Kashi of Karnataka
The route skirts Mysore on the ring road, but the palace city is always tempting. Mysore Palace, lit by nearly a hundred thousand bulbs on Sunday and holiday evenings, Chamundi Hills and the Devaraja market are all close by for groups breaking the journey. South of the city, NH766 reaches Nanjangud on the banks of the Kapila river. The Srikanteshwara Temple here, one of the largest in Karnataka, is revered as the Kashi of the south, and its Dodda Jathre chariot festival draws huge crowds every spring. Nanjangud is also known for its rasabale, a small GI-tagged banana.
Tiger Reserve on the Highway
Past Nanjangud the land flattens into farmland, and around Gundlupet, especially from July to September, the fields turn yellow and orange with sunflowers and marigolds. Travellers love stopping for photographs; do so only where the driver finds safe parking, and never walk into a field without the farmer's permission. Then the forest begins. Bandipur Tiger Reserve covers about 870 square kilometres, and the highway runs through its core for close to 20 kilometres. Speed limits are low, stopping and feeding animals is prohibited, and elephants, gaur, spotted deer and the occasional tiger are seen from the road. The bandipur night traffic ban, roughly 9:00 PM to 6:00 AM, decides the timing of every trip on this route.
Town Named after Tipu's Battery
At Mulehole the road leaves Karnataka and enters the Muthanga range of the Wayanad Wildlife Sanctuary, where the interstate tax check is completed. The forest gives way to coffee, pepper and areca plantations. Sulthan Bathery was once known as Ganapathivattam, and it takes its present name from Tipu Sultan, who used a 13th-century Jain temple here to store his ammunition. That temple still stands near the town centre. About 12 kilometres away, the Edakkal Caves hold Neolithic rock engravings of human figures and symbols, reached by a steep climb up Ambukuthi Mala. Bathery is a comfortable lunch halt.
City of Spices and India's First UNESCO City of Literature
The final 30 kilometres run through Thamarassery, Koduvally, known for its gold jewellery shops, and Kunnamangalam before entering Kozhikode. For centuries this was one of the great spice ports of the world, where pepper, cardamom and ginger from the Malabar hills were traded with Arab, Chinese and later European merchants; Ibn Battuta and the Chinese admiral Zheng He both passed through. In 2023 UNESCO named Kozhikode a City of Literature, the first in India, recognising its libraries, bookshops and writers such as Basheer and S K Pottekkatt. On a 5:30 AM start with halts, you arrive by mid-afternoon, in time for sunset at the beach and a plate of Kozhikode biryani.

The bangalore to kozhikode distance is about 350 kilometres via Mysuru, Bandipur, Wayanad and the Thamarassery ghat. By bus it takes 8 to 9 hours, including the ghat and meal halts.
No. Tejas Travels hires out complete private buses for groups of 27 to 50. For individual seats, scheduled services run overnight. Our buses travel on your group's schedule and stay with you at the destination.
Yes. Karnataka-registered buses need a Kerala permit, which we arrange before departure and bill at actuals. It is checked at the Muthanga border.
The highway through Bandipur and Muthanga is closed to most traffic at night, generally from 9:00 PM to 6:00 AM. We plan departures so the bus crosses in daylight, both ways.
Yes. Large buses use the ghat every day. It can be slow during heavy traffic, and landslides sometimes lead to restrictions in the monsoon. If the ghat is closed, we use the Kuttiady ghat or another route.
Rates start from Rs 45 per km for a 29 seater bus, with larger, executive, Volvo and BharatBenz coaches priced higher. Outstation hire carries a minimum daily kilometre charge, and the final rental is calculated garage to garage. Tolls, parking, the Kerala permit, driver bata after 9:45 PM and GST are extra.
Yes. We pick up guests from several locations in Bangalore, and the bus can stay for venue transfers during the wedding. Wedding bookings need a minimum 7-day notice for a full refund on cancellation.
October to March is ideal, with pleasant weather. The monsoon from June to September brings heavy rain and possible ghat restrictions.
A 20 percent advance of the total fare confirms the booking. We do not operate sleeper buses; all our buses are seated, so we plan daytime travel.
Passenger insurance is not provided by Tejas Tours and Travels, so groups may arrange their own travel cover. To book, call or WhatsApp +91 9980277773 or email info@tejastravels.com with your dates, group size, pickup location and preferred bus tier. Our rental bus booking team sends a written quote within 2 hours.
