Gate pickup
The Urbania picks up at your gate at 5 am. The step is low and there is a handle, so parents climb in easily. Seat them in the middle rows and recline the seats; most elders sleep till breakfast. Keep the ceremony clothes in their own bag. Before Tamil Nadu festivals the stretch near Roopena Agrahara can gridlock with people heading home, so on such dates we start earlier. Breakfast is at Krishnagiri, 90 km on.
Sit down breakfast
We stop at a Krishnagiri hotel where elders can sit at a table and eat slowly: soft idli, pongal and filter coffee. The van parks at the door, the driver fuels up, and there are clean restrooms. Krishnagiri lies at the foot of rocky hills, and nearly 150 mango nurseries cluster round Santhur village nearby. The highway from Hosur is being widened, so the first hour has some slow patches.
Tea on the bypass
A tea and restroom stop on the Salem bypass. If anyone is hungry, the thattu vadai set is sold at small shops. After Salem we leave the highway for NH79 to Attur, which is quieter and easier on elders. Salem has its own airport at Kamalapuram, about 20 km from the city, useful if a relative is flying in to join the ceremony. Salem silk carries a GI tag, if a saree is still needed.
Quiet country road
Around Attur the road runs past small hills and tapioca farms. There is little traffic, so the Urbania keeps a smooth, steady pace. Attur stands where NH79 meets NH136, and its sago units give it the name Sago City. We do not stop here; lunch at Perambalur is about an hour on, and elders usually rest on this stretch. The Kalrayan hills stay in view to the north. Draw the curtains on the sunny side so the cabin stays cool.
Lunch and rest
A sit down lunch in Perambalur: rice, sambar, rasam, kootu and curd, served on a banana leaf at most places. After lunch elders can rest in the cool van for a few minutes while the rest of the family stretches. Perambalur sits on NH38 about 60 km from Tiruchirappalli and some 267 km south of Chennai. Onions are the big crop here. Forty five minutes in all. The driver phones the lodge from here to confirm the rooms.
Temple, if they wish
The huge Chola temple is right on the road, with flat lawns and a short level walk, easy even for elders. Thirty minutes if the family wants. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, built by Rajendra I and finished in 1035 CE. Tender coconut is sold at the gate. If the parents are tired, we drive on and keep their energy for the ceremony. Thirukadaiyur is about 55 km ahead.
Last halt
Mayiladuthurai is the market town for the area, with the Mayuranathaswamy temple and many lodges. A short tea stop, or the night halt if you prefer a bigger hotel. Flowers, fruit and ceremony items are easy to buy in the market here. Many families also use the extra day for the Navagraha temples, six of which are within about 30 km. Thirukadaiyur is 20 km on, about half an hour.
Lodge drop
About ten hours with the halts. The van drops the parents at the lodge door and the driver carries the heavy bags. The village is built around the Amritaghateswarar and Abhirami temple, and 60th, 70th and 80th birthday rites are held there almost every day. On the ceremony morning, the Urbania takes them to the temple gate before sunrise, so they walk as little as possible. Ask the lodge for a ground floor room, so the parents avoid stairs before an early start.

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.

The Bangalore to Thirukadaiyur distance is about 430 km by road, by Krishnagiri, Salem, Attur, Perambalur, Gangaikonda Cholapuram and Mayiladuthurai, or about 860 km for the round trip. In the Urbania the journey takes around 10 hours with rest halts. The van uses NH44 to Salem, NH79 to Attur, then delta roads.
₹40/km for any size; 3 days, 900 km is ₹36,000. Add ₹700 a day driver allowance, tolls, TN permit and GST.
Yes. Reclining seats, a high roof and a smooth ride. We stop every two to three hours.
The 13 seater, with a spare seat for items. All sizes are on Force Urbania on rent in Bangalore.
Partner owners supply it with a driver. You book and pay us.
Yes. The ceremony starts early; arriving the day before keeps elders rested.
December to February, when the delta is cool and dry and the temple floor is easy to sit on. October and November bring the northeast monsoon, and the roads after Perambalur can be slow. March to June is very hot, so in those months keep the ritual early and rest through the afternoon heat.
Each person can bring a medium bag for the rear space. Brass vessels, gift trays and fruit go in a separate box at the back, packed so nothing slides on the bends. Keep the silk clothes for the ritual flat on top, and medicines in a hand bag at the seat.
