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.

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.










For Bangalore companies with teams visiting clients and offices in Kozhikode, including IIM Kozhikode, NIT Calicut and the UL Cyberpark IT campus. Includes GST invoices, a Proforma Invoice for PO-based approval, a verified chauffeur, daily duty slips and consolidated monthly billing for registered accounts. Our corporate travels desk plans departures around the Bandipur timings so meetings are never lost to a forest closure.
Our most booked format on this route. A typical four-day plan spends the first night in Wayanad after an easy drive, covers Edakkal Caves and Banasura Sagar Dam on day two, descends the ghat to Kozhikode on day three for the beach and SM Street, and visits Kappad and Beypore before the return. Families who want space for elders and luggage usually book a bangalore to kozhikode innova in a Crysta, or our innova hycross rent bangalore option for a quieter hybrid ride.
For couples, students and small families watching costs. AC Etios or Dzire sedans, point to point or round trip, with the same verified drivers and maintenance standards as the rest of the fleet. The budget tier changes the car, never the safety checks. Because billing runs garage to garage, a bangalore to kozhikode car rental booked as a round trip with a night or two in the city usually gives better value than a one-way drop.
For senior executives, NRI families and milestone occasions. Choose from Fortuner, Corolla Altis and Camry, or step up to the Audi A6, Audi Q7, BMW 5 Series, BMW 7 Series, Mercedes-Benz E Class, Mercedes-Benz S Class and Rolls-Royce Ghost. Book premium cars early, especially during Bangalore's November to February wedding season, when availability tightens.

Booking a Car for hire in Bangalore with Tejas Travels takes under 5 minutes. Follow these 4 steps:
STEP1 | Contact Tejas Travels Call or WhatsApp +91 9980277773, or email info@tejastravels.com — available 24 hours, 7 days a week. Share your travel date, Bangalore pickup location (area or landmark — Whitefield, Electronic City, MG Road, Koramangala, KIA airport, hotel name, tech park), destination or full itinerary, number of passengers, and preferred vehicle. For KIA airport pickups, share the flight number — the driver tracks live flight status and adjusts pickup timing for delayed flights automatically. For luxury vehicles (Audi, BMW, Mercedes, Rolls-Royce), also mention the occasion — corporate, wedding, VIP event — so the team can ensure the best-condition vehicle and, where required, formal chauffeur attire. |
STEP2 | Receive Your Written Quote Within 2 hours of your enquiry, Tejas Travels sends a written quote via WhatsApp or email. The quote clearly itemizes every charge: vehicle hire rate (Rs/km or flat package), driver allowance (Rs 400-1,000/day depending on vehicle class), applicable toll estimates, and any interstate permit if applicable (Tamil Nadu for Ooty, Kerala for Wayanad, Andhra Pradesh for Tirupati). No verbal-only prices — everything in writing before you confirm. For corporate clients requiring reimbursements, a Proforma Invoice can be issued at this stage. If you want to compare two vehicle classes, request both quotes at the same time. |
STEP3 | Confirm Your Booking & Pay Advance Once satisfied with the written quote, confirm via WhatsApp or phone. A 15-20% advance payment confirms the booking. Payment: UPI (Google Pay, PhonePe, Paytm), NEFT/IMPS/RTGS bank transfer, or credit/debit card via payment link. Advance receipt within 30 minutes. Confirmation includes: driver name and mobile, vehicle registration, departure time, pickup location, and full billing breakdown — all in writing. For luxury vehicles (Rolls-Royce Ghost, BMW 7 Series, Mercedes S-Class), advance may be higher due to limited fleet and Bangalore peak-date demand (wedding season November-February, New Year). |
STEP4 | Your Driver Arrives Early Your assigned Tejas Travels driver arrives at your confirmed Bangalore pickup point 15 minutes before scheduled departure. For KIA airport transfers, the driver coordinates at the Arrivals gate. The vehicle is clean, sanitized, fuelled, and ready. For wedding and VIP bookings, the driver arrives in formal attire. The driver calls 30 minutes before arrival as a courtesy. During the trip, the driver handles all routing, toll payments, and Bangalore traffic navigation. At trip end, balance payment is settled after deducting the advance. Any additional km or hours are billed at the pre-agreed rate. |

The bangalore to kozhikode distance is about 350 km via Mysore, Gundlupet, Bandipur, Sulthan Bathery, Kalpetta and the Thamarassery Ghat. Driving time is seven and a half to nine hours depending on ghat traffic, and with two halts most travellers arrive in nine to ten hours. Leave between 5:00 and 6:00 AM to cross the forest in the morning and the ghat in daylight.
The NH766 stretch through Bandipur and Muthanga is closed to traffic roughly from 9:00 PM to 6:00 AM. With an early start from Bangalore it rarely affects the outbound drive. On the return, your cab must clear the forest check posts before closing, so we plan to leave Kozhikode by early afternoon. If you need to travel later, the driver takes the longer night route via Mananthavady, Kutta and Hunsur.
Fares start from around Rs 6,978 for an AC sedan, with Innova Crysta, Hycross and premium cars priced higher. The quoted fare includes base fare, fuel charges and driver allowance. Toll and parking, interstate tax, driver bata after 9:45 PM and GST are billed separately, and the final rental is calculated on total kilometres and hours from our garage to garage. Every charge appears as a line item in your written quote.
Yes, a bangalore to kozhikode one way cab can be arranged. Because the car and driver return to Bangalore, billing is still calculated garage to garage, so a one-way trip is usually quoted close to a round trip. A kozhikode to bangalore cab for your return can also be scheduled separately if you travel onward within Kerala first.
A 20 percent advance of the total fare confirms your booking and locks in the specific vehicle. You can pay by UPI (Google Pay, PhonePe, Paytm), NEFT, IMPS or RTGS bank transfer, or by card through a payment link. A receipt is issued within 30 minutes, and the balance is settled at trip end after the advance is deducted.
Cancelling more than 72 hours before departure is free, and the full advance is refunded. Between 48 and 72 hours the charge is 10 percent of the total fare, between 24 and 48 hours 25 percent, between 12 and 24 hours 50 percent, and under 12 hours 75 percent. A no-show is charged in full. Date changes and vehicle upgrades with more than 24 hours notice carry no penalty, subject to availability.
Yes, and it is the most popular way to do this trip. A bangalore to kozhikode via wayanad itinerary with a night at Kalpetta or Vythiri splits the drive into two easy halves and adds Edakkal Caves, Chembra Peak or Banasura Sagar Dam. Share your day-wise plan when you enquire, and we will quote the full itinerary, including local running, in one written number.
A small advance of around 20 percent of the total fare is typically collected at the time of booking to secure the vehicle and driver allocation, with the remaining balance payable at
the end of the trip either in cash directly to the driver or online via a payment link.
Tejas Travels maintains a fair, transparent, and tiered cancellation policy. All terms communicated in writing at booking confirmation.

October to March brings dry roads, clear ghat views and calm seas at Kozhikode and Kappad. The monsoon from June to September makes Wayanad lush and the waterfalls spectacular, but ghat traffic is slower and landslips can close the road for a few hours, so allow extra time.
