Gate pickup
The Urbania comes to the gate at 7 am, which matters when elders are travelling. It is too tall for most apartment basements, so it waits outside, and it handles apartment roads fine despite its length. The Chintamani road is lighter than the Hosur side, so the drive stays calm once the van clears KR Puram on Old Madras Road. Keep medicines and a shawl at the seat. Madanapalle is 130 km away, and breakfast is at Chintamani.
Optional tea
A tea halt at Hoskote, 30 km out, only if someone needs it; most Urbania groups drive through in the morning. The van leaves NH75 here, while the highway goes on to Kolar, and the Chennai expressway also begins at Hoskote. On the way home, some like to stop for the mutton dum biryani of the town; on Sundays the queue can be long, so a weekday return is easier. The road from here to Chintamani is a quieter two lane road.
Sit down breakfast
At Chintamani, 75 km out, we pick a hotel where elders can sit and eat slowly: idli, pongal, dosa and filter coffee. The van parks at the door. Twenty five minutes is comfortable. A clean restroom here is the last good one before Madanapalle, so everyone should use it. The town is known for its silk and tomato markets and for snacks like chakli. Kaivara is about 11 km from here, if anyone wants to add it on the way back.
Orchard road
Mango orchards line both sides as the Urbania crosses into Andhra Pradesh near Rayalpadu, 95 km out. In season, mangoes are sold at the roadside, and the van can stop for a few minutes. The large windows make this the nicest stretch of the drive for elders. Rayalpadu itself is a small village on the Chintamani to Madanapalle road, with nothing to stop for. Madanapalle is about 35 km on, under an hour.
Drop in town
The Urbania drops you at the house, hall or hotel in Madanapalle and waits. The town is the headquarters of Annamayya district, ringed by rocky hills, and its tomato market is said to be the largest in Asia. Custard apple and mango are sold in season, soft fruits that travel well in the cool van. Lunch in town is Andhra meals; ask for less chilli for elders. The story goes that Tagore translated Jana Gana Mana into English here in 1919.
Is a Bangalore to Madanapalle Force Urbania right for your parents and relatives, or a small team, 8 to 16 people? It is quieter than a tempo traveller and every seat reclines. We arrange Force Urbania on rent in Bangalore with a driver.

Bangalore to Pondicherry
We recently completed our Pondicherry trip with Tejas Tours and Travel Company, and overall we had a very good experience. Shashikala coordinated with us from enquiry to booking and throughout the trip. She was well-communicated, supportive, and checked in with us daily to ensure everything was fine.

About 130 km from Bangalore by Old Madras Road and Hoskote, then Chintamani and Rayalpadu into Andhra Pradesh, about 260 km for the round trip. The Force Urbania takes about 2.5 hours with a sit down breakfast at Chintamani, a little longer if the KR Puram junction is busy.
Every size costs ₹40/km, so the 300 km day is ₹12,000. The driver gets ₹700 for the day; tolls, the AP permit and GST are separate.
The Urbania is quieter, with reclining seats and more headroom. The tempo traveller costs less per km. For elders, most families choose the Urbania.
Book the 13 seater and keep the spare seat for bags. Sizes and photos are on Force Urbania on rent in Bangalore.
The Urbania vans come from owners we have tied up with. You book with us, pay our rate, and we stay responsible for the trip.
Yes, the ghat road is fine for it. Add about 60 km for the round trip from Madanapalle.
November to February, when mornings are cool. April and May are hot but bring mangoes to the Rayalpadu stalls. From June to October it rains on and off, and late season evening storms jam Bangalore, so start back by mid afternoon then.
Yes. Behind the last row there is space for a medium bag per person and a folded wheelchair or walker; tell us in advance. Keep medicines and water at the seat. For a full van with big suitcases, the larger Urbania is the better pick.
