Elder friendly start
The Urbania comes at 5 am for a group of eight to sixteen, often families with elders. Seats recline, and the van's AC keeps the cabin steady through the long day, about nine hours with halts. Load suitcases behind the last row at the gate, not in a basement. A small bag for each elder should hold medicines, a shawl and water. Tumkur Road is quiet at this hour, so the city is behind you quickly.
Breakfast
Breakfast at Tumkur (Tumakuru), about 70 km out. The Urbania parks at the hotel door, so elders step straight in, and soft thatte idli is easy on everyone. Tumakuru stands at about 800 m, so the morning is still cool here. The Siddaganga Matha, a 15th century Lingayat monastery about 5 km off, is a darshan some elders like to add on the return. Thirty minutes, then on along NH48. Elders who need a hot drink can have filter coffee.
Tea
Tea at Hiriyur, at the 155 km point. The Teru Malleshwara temple, known as Dakshina Kashi, is in town for a short darshan. The Urbania's wide step means elders get down without strain. Hiriyur's weekly santhe makes the centre busy on market day, so the van waits on the highway side. Fifteen minutes is enough for tea and the restroom. About 45 km more to Chitradurga. Fill the water bottles here for the afternoon.
Turn off
At Chitradurga, about 200 km from Bangalore, the Urbania leaves NH48 and joins NH50 for Hosapete. The fort's seven walls and rocky paths are hard on elders, so this is a drive past, with a look at the walls from the window. Chitradurga sits at about 732 m, and the Murugha Matha in town is another landmark. Lunch is at Hosapete, about two hours ahead, so a light snack in the van will do.
Short halt
A ten minute halt at Kudligi, around 280 km out on NH50, for the restroom and a stretch. The taluk is known for tamarind. Elders may like the story that Mahatma Gandhi's ashes were brought to Kudligi, where the Mahadeva Mylara ground has a memorial. Between Chitradurga and here the road crossed Jagalur taluk. Hosapete is about 40 km on, and lunch is waiting there. The town lies at about 596 m, on dry, open land.
Lunch
Lunch at Hosapete, 320 km out. Jolada rotti meals are the local food, with milder dishes for elders, and the van parks at the hotel door. Hosapete is on the Tungabhadra river, and the dam beside the town is a gentle evening stop on the return. Kannada, Urdu and Telugu are all spoken here. After lunch, the road north on NH50 to Kushtagi is about 65 km. Forty minutes is enough without hurrying anyone.
Tea
Kushtagi, about 385 km out, is a small highway town with tea stalls and fuel. A short break helps, as regular stops make a nine hour day easier for elders. The Durga Devi temple is in the heart of the town. Pomegranate farms surround Kushtagi, and fresh fruit is sold by the road. The road to Pattadakal leaves NH50 here, about 55 km more, roughly an hour. Elders can walk a little here to ease stiff knees.
Arrival
About nine hours with halts, the Urbania drops elders right at the entrance. The temples are on flat lawns, easy to walk, though the yards are open to the sun, so carry caps and socks for the stone floors. Tickets follow ASI rules at the counter. Chalukya kings were once crowned here, a line elders enjoy. A few snack stalls stand near the gate, so carry water. The driver waits in the parking close by.

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.

Bangalore to Pattadakal is about 440 km by road, close to 880 km for the round trip. The Urbania runs on NH48 as far as Chitradurga, on NH50 through Hosapete to Kushtagi, and on a smaller road for the last hour. Allow about nine hours, with breakfast, lunch and two tea halts.
Three days, 900 km at ₹40/km is ₹36,000, any size. Add ₹2,100 allowance, tolls and GST.
Pattadakal and Aihole are flat. Badami caves have steep steps.
The 12 seater. See sizes on Force Urbania on rent in Bangalore.
Badami has the most hotels.
October to February. Visit the sites before noon.
Smaller than the highway. At Kushtagi the road for Badami and Pattadakal leaves NH50, and the last hour is on a narrower road through farmland and villages. It is paved and the Urbania rides it comfortably, but the speed drops, so plan to reach before dark. NH48 and NH50 up to Kushtagi are wide highways.
One medium suitcase each for twelve people, behind the last row, plus a hand bag at the seat. For sixteen, keep to soft bags. Medicines, shawls and water should stay in the hand bag. Shopping such as pomegranates from Kushtagi or tamarind from Kudligi fits in easily on the way home.
