Bangalore to Moodabidri Bus Rental — 27 to 50 Seater Coach Hire for Group Travel

Bus Packages for the Bangalore to Moodabidri Route

Corporate Package

Bangalore companies use this route for coastal offsites based in Mangalore, for plant and dealer visits across Dakshina Kannada, and increasingly for staff heritage or temple trips. Includes GST invoicing, a Proforma Invoice for PO-based approval, a named driver team for the full trip and consolidated monthly billing for registered accounts. The same corporate bus rental bangalore vehicle stays with your team throughout, with duty slips signed daily and reconciled against the final invoice. For headcounts past fifty we run coordinated multiple coaches so the group arrives together rather than in waves. Our corporate travels desk manages the arrangement end to end.

Family, Pilgrimage and Heritage Package

Two overlapping groups book this. Jain families and associations travelling for the basadis and the Bahubali statues, often taking Shravanabelagola on the way out and Karkala and Venur on the way back, and temple associations passing through on the wider coastal week with Dharmasthala, Kukke Subramanya and Udupi. The package is planned around darshan timings rather than driving times, with the coach waiting through each visit. For guest movement at coastal weddings, where Bangalore families frequently travel down together, we coordinate the coach with cars through our wedding car rental bangalore service so the whole party moves on one schedule.

School and College Package

This is the natural budget tier on this route and the biggest single source of group traffic to Moodabidri. The Jain basadi and Bahubali circuit is a standard history and heritage itinerary, and Pilikula at Mangalore adds a science and biology component that makes the trip work for a whole school year group. Non-AC 27 to 45 seater coaches, verified drivers, and route planning that keeps the day realistic for children. The bus rate per km in bangalore for the non-AC tier is our lowest, which matters when the trip is funded by student contribution. Vehicle specification is the only difference between tiers, never maintenance, driver vetting or compliance.

Luxury and Volvo Package

Volvo and BharatBenz coaches in seated configuration, with wider reclining seats, better suspension and the cabin insulation that makes a seven hour journey pass quickly. The suspension difference is felt most on the ghat descent. This tier suits senior management travel, conference movements to Mangalore and premium family occasions. Our volvo bus rental bangalore fleet covers it, and we will advise honestly on where a Volvo can and cannot be parked once you are inside the Moodabidri and Karkala circuit.

Our Bus Fleet in Bangalore

Our bus fleet runs 27 to 50 seater coaches in AC and non-AC, including Volvo and Benz vehicles for the premium tier. We operate the full range of group transport from the same Bangalore base, so if your headcount changes after booking we can usually move you across categories without restarting the process.

•      Bus — 27 to 50 seater, including Volvo and Benz coaches, the core vehicle for this route

•      Mini bus — 12 to 24 seater, AC and non-AC, for groups below twenty-five and for the Venur and Karkala legs

•      Tempo traveller — 8 to 18 seater, for smaller parties and for local sightseeing alongside a coach

•      Force Urbania — 13 to 17 seater luxury van

•      Cars — 4 to 7 seater, from Etios, Dzire, Innova and Commuter through Innova Crysta, Innova Hycross and Fortuner, up to Corolla Altis, Camry, Audi A6, Audi Q7, BMW 5 Series, BMW 7 Series, Mercedes-Benz E Class, Mercedes-Benz S Class and Rolls-Royce Ghost

Tejas Tours and Travels does not operate sleeper bus services. Every vehicle we run is seated configuration with push-back seats. On this route we schedule departures so the Shiradi ghat is driven in daylight rather than at night, and where a group prefers to split the journey we plan a hotel halt at Hassan or Sakleshpur.

Billing Details — What Is Included and What Is Extra

We quote in writing before you book and the quote itemises everything, so there are no surprises at trip end. A 20 percent advance of the total fare confirms your booking.

Included in the Quoted Fare

•      Base fare and fuel charges

•      Driver allowance

Not Included — Billed Separately at Actuals

•      Toll charges and parking fees

•      Interstate tax where applicable. The Moodabidri route stays within Karnataka, so no interstate permit arises unless your itinerary extends beyond the state

•      Additional driver bata after 9:45 PM

•      GST as applicable

•      Final rental is calculated on total kilometres and hours from our garage to garage

The garage-to-garage basis is standard across the organised group transport industry in Bangalore. The meter starts when the vehicle leaves our garage for your pickup point and ends when it returns. We factor this into the written quote, so the number you approve is the number you pay.

Tejas Tours and Travels does not provide passenger insurance cover. Passengers are advised to arrange their own travel insurance if required. Vehicle insurance and full statutory driver and vehicle compliance are maintained across the fleet.
