Places to Visit in Shirdi
Shri Sai Baba Samadhi Mandir
This is the principal reason millions travel to Shirdi each year. The Samadhi Mandir houses the mortal remains of Sai Baba and is the spiritual centrepiece of the entire town. The sanctum is adorned with white Italian marble and the life-size idol of Sai Baba draws devotees in enormous numbers throughout the day. The atmosphere of devotion, the fragrance of incense, and the collective prayers create an overwhelming spiritual experience. Darshan timings are structured and the complex also includes the Dwarkamai mosque where Sai Baba lived, the Chawdi where he slept on alternate nights, and Gurusthan where he was first sighted as a young man.

Darshan timings are structured and the complex also includes the Dwarkamai mosque where Sai Baba lived, the Chawdi where he slept on alternate nights, and Gurusthan where he was first sighted as a young man.
Dwarkamai Masjid
Dwarkamai is the mosque where Sai Baba spent most of his life. It is a sacred site where he performed miracles, healed the sick, and guided thousands of seekers. The eternal dhuni, a sacred fire that has been burning since Baba's time, continues to burn here and is considered deeply holy. Devotees receive udi, sacred ash, from this dhuni as a blessing. The mosque also houses a large stone on which Sai Baba is believed to have sat and meditated. A visit to Dwarkamai is incomplete without spending a few quiet moments of reflection near the dhuni.
Shri Khandoba Mandir
Situated at the entrance of Shirdi, Khandoba Mandir is dedicated to Lord Khandoba, the presiding deity of Shirdi. It was here that Mhalsapati, the temple priest, first greeted young Sai Baba with the words "Aao Sai", giving him the name by which the world knows him today. The temple is ancient, vibrant, and filled with energy. Visitors who arrive in Shirdi for the first time are recommended to begin their pilgrimage here as a mark of reverence. The temple sees a surge of devotees during festival days, especially Champa Shashthi.
Gurusthan
Gurusthan marks the spot where Sai Baba was first seen as a young boy of about sixteen sitting under a neem tree in deep meditation. The tree still stands and is considered sacred. A small shrine exists beneath the tree which is believed to be the place where Baba's spiritual Guru rests. Devotees offer prayers here and the neem leaves from this tree are considered to have healing properties. The air around Gurusthan carries a certain stillness and many visitors report experiencing profound peace when they sit quietly in this space.
Wet N Joy Water Park, Shirdi
For families travelling with children or for those who wish to unwind after their pilgrimage, Wet N Joy is one of the largest water parks in Maharashtra, located just a short drive from Shirdi. It offers a variety of water rides, wave pools, lazy rivers, and adventure activities suitable for all age groups. The park is well-maintained, safe, and provides a complete recreational day out. Many cab travellers from Bangalore plan a half-day at Wet N Joy before or after completing their temple visits to make the most of the long trip.
Sai Heritage Village
Sai Heritage Village is a themed cultural and spiritual attraction that recreates the ambience of Shirdi as it was during Sai Baba's lifetime. Spread across a large area, it features life-size depictions of the village, replicas of Dwarkamai, Chavadi, and scenes from Baba's miraculous life. There are light and sound shows, a spiritual garden, and interactive exhibits that are particularly engaging for families and younger visitors. The village provides historical and spiritual context that deepens the understanding and appreciation of Sai Baba's life and teachings.
Nashik – Day Trip from Shirdi
Located approximately 90 kilometres from Shirdi, Nashik is one of the four cities that host the Kumbh Mela and is considered one of the holiest cities in India. The Godavari ghats, Trimbakeshwar Shiva temple, Panchvati, and the Sita Gumpha caves make Nashik a spiritually rich day trip extension for anyone already in Shirdi. Many travellers who book a Bangalore to Shirdi outstation cab request a Nashik extension to make the long journey more worthwhile.
Ahmednagar Fort
About 75 kilometres from Shirdi, Ahmednagar Fort is a massive historical structure that dates back to the fifteenth century. Built by Ahmad Nizam Shah I, the fort was also the site where Jawaharlal Nehru was imprisoned during the freedom movement. The fort is a UNESCO tentative heritage site and is an excellent destination for history enthusiasts. The surrounding city of Ahmednagar also has a well-known regimental museum. Including Ahmednagar in your itinerary adds a compelling historical dimension to your Shirdi pilgrimage trip.
Shani Shingnapur
Shani Shingnapur is a village located approximately 65 kilometres from Shirdi, famous for its open-air temple dedicated to Lord Shani. The village is unique because traditionally none of the homes have doors, reflecting the faith residents have in Lord Shani's protection. The main idol of Shani Dev is a self-manifested black stone that has been worshipped here for centuries. Devotees from across India visit to seek relief from the effects of Sade Sati and other astrological challenges. A visit to Shani Shingnapur pairs naturally with a Shirdi trip and is a highly recommended addition to your itinerary.

Bangalore
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.
Tumkur
Spiritual hub
Tumkur is the first major town on the route and serves as an ideal early breakfast stop when you depart from Bangalore. The National Highway 48 connecting Bangalore to Tumkur is a well-maintained four-lane expressway that allows smooth driving. Tumkur is known for its coconut farms and the surrounding district is one of the most productive coconut growing regions in Karnataka. The town has good highway dhabas and restaurants where travellers can refresh themselves before continuing towards Chitradurga. Tumkur also has quick access to the Devarayana Durga hill fort and Siddaganga Math, though most Shirdi-bound travellers skip these and continue on the highway. The stretch from Bangalore to Tumkur is one of the fastest and most comfortable on the entire route, typically covered in about 90 minutes.
Chitradurga
Iconic landmark: Chitradurga Fort
Chitradurga is a significant historical town and a popular stop for travellers on this route. The famous Chitradurga Fort, known as Elusuttina Kote (the seven-walled fort), rises dramatically from the rocky landscape and is visible from the highway. This eighteenth century fort complex is associated with the Palyagara chieftains and Hyder Ali. Most travellers use Chitradurga as a mid-morning snack stop or fuel stop. The town has a growing number of highway restaurants, petrol stations, and rest facilities. Beyond Chitradurga, the road transitions into the northern Deccan plateau terrain and the landscape becomes drier and more dramatic. The Chitradurga Fort is worth a short visit if you have allocated sufficient time and are not travelling overnight.
Hubli-Dharwad
Cultural twin‑city
The twin cities of Hubli and Dharwad represent the most significant urban stop on the Bangalore to Shirdi road route. Hubli is a major commercial centre and railway junction in northern Karnataka while Dharwad is known as a cultural and academic hub. This is the ideal lunch stop for most travellers departing Bangalore in the early morning hours. The cities offer a wide range of restaurant options including both South Indian and North Indian cuisines. From Hubli-Dharwad, the route continues towards Solapur crossing into Maharashtra. The roads in this stretch are well-marked and maintained under the National Highway Authority. Petrol, diesel, and EV charging facilities are readily available in and around Hubli.
Solapur
Pilgrimage & temples
Solapur is the last major city before reaching Shirdi and marks the crossing into Maharashtra proper. The city is historically important and is associated with the Bhima Shankar temple and the Solapur Fort. Most travellers use Solapur as an evening or dinner stop before the final leg of the journey to Shirdi. The road from Solapur to Shirdi is well-connected via state highways and passes through smaller Maharashtrian towns. The landscape around Solapur is characterised by flat, semi-arid terrain with sugarcane fields. Solapur also has a railway station with trains connecting to Mumbai and Pune if any travellers in your group need to split for onward journeys
Shirdi
The Divine Destination
After a long and rewarding drive, the arrival in Shirdi is marked by the increasing number of devotees, orange flags, and signboards pointing to the Samadhi Mandir. The town is compact and most attractions are within walking distance of the main temple complex. Tejas Travels ensures that your driver knows the best drop-off points nearest to the temple and is familiar with the local parking and traffic regulations. On arrival, most pilgrims proceed directly for darshan before settling into accommodation. The entire Bangalore to Shirdi cab journey, when planned overnight, allows you to arrive in time for the morning aarti, which is one of the most spiritually powerful experiences Shirdi has to offer.

Tempo Traveller Packages for the Shirdi Route
Family and Pilgrimage Package
The most common booking on this route. A 12 or 17 seater AC pushback tempo traveller for extended families and bhajan mandalis, with luggage capacity for a four to six day trip, a driver experienced on the Maharashtra corridor, and an itinerary built around realistic driving hours. We plan the overnight halt at Vijayapura or Solapur where the group prefers to break the journey. A frequently requested tempo traveller for pilgrimage bangalore configuration through the winter months.
Corporate Package
For companies organising employee pilgrimage trips, a practice common among Bangalore manufacturing and IT firms. Includes a 17 or 26 seater AC vehicle, Maharashtra permit arranged in advance, GST invoicing, a Proforma Invoice for PO-based approval, and a driver briefed on a fixed multi-day schedule. Consolidated billing is available where multiple vehicles run together. Our standard corporate tempo traveller bangalore setup for group welfare trips.
Budget Package
The most economical way to move a group of twelve to Shirdi and back. A standard AC tempo traveller on a straight per-kilometre basis, honest billing and the same maintenance and driver standards as the rest of the fleet. Suited to community groups and temple committees travelling on a collected corpus. Given the distance, ask for the four-day and six-day rates together so the committee can compare before deciding.
Luxury Package
A premium luxury tempo traveller bangalore configuration with 9 to 13 pushback recliner seats, individual reading lights, LED interiors, a cooler box, curtains and a music system. On a sixteen-hour drive this is not an indulgence so much as the difference between arriving rested and arriving exhausted, which matters when the first thing you do on arrival is stand in a darshan queue. For an even higher specification, our Force Urbania is the natural upgrade, and for larger groups a Volvo coach is worth pricing alongside.

● Toll and parking charges
● Interstate tax. This applies on the Shirdi route, since the itinerary crosses into Maharashtra, and is itemised separately in your quote.

How to Book a Tempo Traveller for Rent in Bangalore — Step by Step
Booking a tempo traveller for hire in Bangalore with Tejas Travels takes under 5 minutes. Follow these 4 steps:
Step 1 — 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 Shirdi and other multi-day interstate trips, share the full day-wise itinerary so the Maharashtra permit can be arranged, the night halts planned and a driver with route experience allocated.
● 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, also mention the occasion — corporate, wedding, VIP event — so the team can ensure the best-condition vehicle and, where required, formal chauffeur attire.
Step 2 — Receive Your Written Quote
● Within 2 hours of your enquiry, Tejas Travels sends a written quote via WhatsApp or email.

Frequently Asked Questions — Bangalore to Shirdi
Approximately 870 kilometres via Chitradurga, Hospet, Vijayapura and Solapur, taking 15 to 16 hours of actual driving. The alternative corridor through Hubballi, Belagavi, Kolhapur and Pune is around 980 kilometres but runs on better highway for more of its length. Either way, plan for a full day and night on the road, or split the drive with an overnight halt.
Four days is the practical minimum: one day out, one full day in Shirdi for darshan and the local sites, one day back, and a buffer. Five to six days if you want to add Shani Shingnapur, Trimbakeshwar and Nashik, or Ellora and Grishneshwar. Attempting it in three days means two consecutive overnight drives, which we do not recommend for groups with elders or children.
Yes. The route crosses into Maharashtra, so a Maharashtra interstate permit and tax apply to the vehicle. We arrange this in advance and itemise the cost separately in your written quote, so nothing is demanded at the checkpost. This is why we ask for the full day-wise itinerary at the enquiry stage rather than just the destination.
A night halt charge covers the driver's accommodation and food for each night the vehicle is away from base. On a route like Shirdi it is unavoidable and appears as a separate line in your quote. The same applies to the extra driver bata for running after 9:45 pm, which an overnight drive always triggers. We state both openly rather than folding them into a headline rate.
Yes, particularly for Thursdays, weekends and festival periods. The Shri Sai Baba Sansthan operates online booking for aarti passes and accommodation, and slots for the four daily aartis are limited. Booking before you leave Bangalore is far easier than arranging it after a sixteen-hour drive. The passes must be booked by the group.
We operate 9, 12, 14, 17 and 18 seater tempo travellers, all air-conditioned. For Shirdi we strongly recommend the pushback recliner variant in any size, since the seating makes a real difference across sixteen hours. For groups above twenty-five, ask us to price a Volvo coach alongside the tempo traveller, as the economics often favour the coach on this distance.
Twenty per cent of the total fare is payable in advance. The fare includes base fare, fuel charges and driver allowance. Toll and parking, Maharashtra interstate tax, GST, driver night halt charges and extra driver bata after 9:45 pm are charged separately. Accommodation, meals and darshan passes are arranged by the group. The final rental is calculated on total kilometres and hours from our garage to garage.
No. Tejas Tours and Travels does not cover passenger insurance. Our vehicles carry the statutory commercial vehicle insurance required by law, but individual passenger cover is not included. On a journey of this length we suggest travellers arrange their own travel insurance independently before departure.
Yes, and many groups do. Shani Shingnapur is about 70 kilometres away and takes half a day. Trimbakeshwar and Nashik, roughly 100 kilometres west, need a full day, as do Ellora and Grishneshwar 130 kilometres east. Adding all three turns a four-day trip into six or seven, so share the full plan at enquiry and we will quote the actual kilometres.
Yes. Share your GST number and preferred invoicing format at the enquiry stage. We issue a Proforma Invoice for PO-based approval before travel and a final GST invoice after settlement, with the interstate permit and night halt charges shown as separate line items. Registered corporate clients can opt for 30-day credit terms, and temple committees or trusts can be invoiced against a written work order.
