Boarding point
For fifty people, choose one assembly point with room to board, such as a school ground or a temple yard. Avoid the Majestic area, where the police give a private bus only a minute or two to load on busy days. Leave at 4:30 am; a full bus on a Saturday needs the extra hour to beat the Pavagada queue. The bus takes Bellary Road and then State Highway 9 for about 155 km. Name two helpers to count heads at every halt.
Straight through
No stop at Yelahanka. The bus turns onto the Doddaballapur road here, State Highway 9, which runs between Old Town and New Town. A full size bus has to keep to the main roads in this part of the city, so pickups in the old town lanes are not possible. Yelahanka sits at about 915 m like the rest of Bangalore, so the early morning is cool. Breakfast is planned at Doddaballapur, about 25 km on.
Open road
Rajanukunte, on State Highway 9 about 10 km after Yelahanka, is where traffic thins and the bus can hold a steady speed. No halt going north. Coming back in the evening, the driver may stop here for tea if the group wants it, but tea for fifty takes time, so only if the bus is on schedule. From here Doddaballapur is about 15 km ahead and Pavagada about 130 km. Use this stretch to collect the money for the group offering.
Breakfast for fifty
Breakfast for fifty needs a hotel with bus parking and a fast counter, and the driver knows the ones on the Doddaballapur road. Many temple groups fast till darshan and eat on the way back instead. Keep 40 minutes. Doddaballapur, about 40 km out, is a weaving town of power looms and silk sarees. Its railway station is on the Bengaluru to Guntakal line, if a few members are coming in by train. From here the bus goes north through Madhugiri.
Restroom halt
A restroom halt at a large fuel station near Madhugiri, where the bus also fills diesel. The rock hill of Madhugiri rises above the town, a single monolith said to be the second largest in Asia, with a fort on it. The town is in Tumkur (Tumakuru) district, about 105 km out. Fifteen minutes covers the restroom for a full bus if everyone moves quickly. Pavagada is about 50 km further, near the Andhra Pradesh border.
Bus parking ground
A full bus takes about four hours to Pavagada. On Saturdays buses park at the outer ground and the group walks in to the Shanimahatma temple. Fix one meeting point and one return time, and make sure every member has the driver's number. Saturday queues are long, often two to three hours. Pavagada is next to Andhra Pradesh, and people here speak both Kannada and Telugu. The bus waits at the ground until the group is back.
Organising a temple trip to Pavagada for 27 to 50 people, from a layout, a mandali or a company? A Bangalore to Pavagada bus takes the whole group in one booking, and the driver knows where a big bus can park on a busy Saturday. Tejas Tours & Travels has run bus on rent in Bangalore for temple groups since 2009.

We had a great experience with this travel agent while arranging a bus for our team outing. The response was quick and professional, and all our requirements were handled smoothly. The bus arrived on time, was neat and clean, and the journey was very comfortable. Special thanks to Mahantesh, who was the coordinator and supported us with all last-minute changes. The overall coordination was excellent, which made our trip hassle-free. Highly recommended for group travel arrangement.

Pavagada is about 155 km from Bangalore, roughly 310 km for the round trip, by Bellary Road, Yelahanka and State Highway 9 through Doddaballapur and Madhugiri. A full bus takes about four hours each way with the breakfast and restroom halts. Leaving at 4:30 am, the group reaches the temple by about 8:30 am.
One day, 310 km at ₹54/km: ₹16,740. Add ₹1,000 driver allowance, tolls and GST.
Take the 40 seater, ₹18,600 for the day. Compare every size under bus on rent in Bangalore.
Yes, we arrange Volvo or BharatBenz coaches on request; their minimum is 400 km a day instead of 300.
It parks at the vehicle ground; the last stretch is on foot. On weekdays the bus can get closer.
Yes. Then it is two days, 600 km, plus two days of allowance.
Sometimes. From about mid November to mid February, fog settles over north Bangalore and the airport area in the early hours, until about 8:30 am. A bus leaving at 4:30 am meets it around Hebbal and Yelahanka, and the driver keeps the speed down until it clears. Allow an extra half hour on those mornings.
Yes. Many temple groups carry lunch and water cans for fifty, and the bus has a luggage hold under the floor for vessels and cans. Tell us at booking so the hold is kept free. Keep the food covered and the cans sealed, and eat at the parking ground or on the way back, not inside the bus.
