Single pickup point
For Sirsi our coach of 45 departs at 4:30 am, and everyone boards at a single wide spot we agree on beforehand. Before a Sirsi departure we look again at the city rules for coaches. Before the trip our driver confirms whether heavy vehicles may use the Peenya flyover. The coach then stays on NH48 northbound through Tumakuru, Sira and Hiriyur. The first halt on the Sirsi road is Tumkur, where everyone can stretch.
Drive through
At this hour the coach rolls straight through Tumkur, now Tumakuru. A staff member who flies in later can catch up by taxi from the airport, roughly 90 km away. The city has grown into a busy industrial centre with Smart City status. College groups who like climbing often plan a separate weekend for Madhugiri, about 43 km off, where a fort sits atop a huge single rock. Breakfast is at Chitradurga, a couple of hours ahead.
Drive through
The coach passes Sira, around 120 km out, without stopping. Three centuries ago, in the early 1700s, this was the capital of a Mughal province, the Sira Subah, and parts of the old fort still stand. Hiriyur is roughly 35 km further, and Chitradurga after it. Students can keep sleeping, since breakfast at Chitradurga is about an hour and a half ahead. The driver keeps a steady pace on the wide highway.
Breakfast for the group
Fifty people have breakfast at Chitradurga, around 200 km from home, at a roadside restaurant on the bypass with room for the coach. Allow 45 minutes with the head count. Up in the fort, 18 old temples survive on the upper level, the Hidimbeshwara being the oldest, along with palace ruins and stones once used to grind gunpowder. If the group plans a fort visit on the return, book tickets online beforehand, as the gate's QR system can lag on weak network.
Tea
Davangere, around 260 km out, is a 15 minute tea stop for the coach. Benne dose is the city's pride; a GI tag was sought for it in 2024 but turned down, because the dish is cooked all over Karnataka. Nearby, Shanti Sagara, also called Sulekere, is among the largest irrigation tanks in Asia, built in the 12th century, a good stop for a geography class on the return. Ranebennur is about 35 km ahead.
Drive through
The coach drives through Ranebennur, around 300 km from home, without a halt. The highway here carries a constant flow of buses linking the north and south of Karnataka, so traffic is heavy at times. Hubballi lies about 105 to 108 km further on. A student group could return another day for the blackbuck sanctuary nearby, a rare grassland reserve. Lunch is planned at Haveri, roughly 30 km ahead, so the group stays seated.
Lunch with parking
Fifty people lunch at Haveri, around 330 km from home, at a hotel on NH48 with coach parking. Allow an hour. Between January and April, trucks loaded with red chilli jam the roads around Byadgi in this district, with record arrivals of over 80,000 quintals on some February days, so the driver keeps away from those side roads. Hubli lies about 75 km on via Shiggaon, but the coach turns west for Sirsi instead.
Group stay
A full coach needs about 10 hours to reach Sirsi, some 405 to 415 km from home depending on the road, so a predawn departure gets the group in by mid afternoon. Choose a hotel on a main road with room to park, and order dinner for everyone at one sitting. Staff who fly out can reach Hubli airport in about two and a half hours, and Haveri station is about 76 km away. The driver parks near the hotel.
Taking 30 to 50 people to Sirsi for the Marikamba jatre, a wedding or a college trip to the falls? This is our Bangalore to Sirsi Bus page, covering the road, parking at stops and fares by seat count. A bus on the six lane NH48 makes the long road easy.

Totals are the km fare plus the day driver allowance. Extra: night driver allowance (₹700 to ₹1,000 a night, by size), tolls, parking and GST. Shared by 50, 4 days in the 50 Seater Bus is about ₹1,380 a person.
Up to 30: 30 seater bus. 31 to 40: 40 seater bus. 41 to 50: 50 seater bus. The forest roads to the falls are narrow, so a 30 to 40 seater moves easier than a 50.
Group of 20? The Bangalore to Sirsi mini bus costs less and fits the forest roads. Going on to the coast? See the Bangalore to Gokarna bus.
Cancellation: no charge more than 72 hours before pickup; see the cancellation policy for the rest.

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.

Sirsi is about 405 km from Bangalore, about 810 km for the round trip, by Tumakuru, Sira, Chitradurga, Davangere, Ranebennur and Haveri. A full bus needs about 10 hours with breakfast and lunch, so we start at 4:30 am and reach by mid afternoon.
3 days, 900 km. A 40 seater at ₹60/km is ₹54,000; a 50 seater at ₹54/km is ₹48,600. Driver allowance, tolls and GST extra.
The roads are narrow forest roads. A 30 to 40 seater manages; a 50 seater may stop short. We check before the trip.
The 33 seater. All sizes are on bus on rent in Bangalore.
At ₹44/km, ₹39,600 for 900 km, with ₹700/day a day allowance.
Once in two years, in February or March. The town is very crowded; book early.
It is green but slow. From June to September Sirsi gets heavy rain, the ghat roads into town are slippery and the falls paths are wet for a big group. NH48 up to Haveri is fine in any season. October to February is the best time for a coach, with dry roads and cool weather.
One bag each in the hold under the floor and a small bag at the seat. Pack a rain jacket, a spare set of clothes and good footwear, since walks near Sirsi can be wet. Label every bag with a name and phone number. The coordinator counts bags at loading and at the hotel.
