Bangalore to Venur Minibus Rental — 12 to 24 Seater Mini Bus for the Bahubali Circuit

Minibus Packages for the Bangalore to Venur Route

Corporate Package

Built for Bangalore IT and manufacturing teams heading to the coast for offsites, team trips and CSR visits, and increasingly for groups combining a Dharmasthala visit with a Mangalore plant or client meeting. Includes GST invoicing, a Proforma Invoice for PO-based approval, a named driver for the full multi-day trip and consolidated monthly billing for registered accounts. The same corporate minibus bangalore vehicle stays with the team across the Venur, Dharmasthala and Moodbidri legs, with duty slips signed daily and reconciled against the final invoice. Our corporate travels bangalore desk manages the arrangement end to end.

Family and Pilgrimage Package

The most common booking on this corridor. Usually a four to six day circuit taking in Shravanabelagola, Venur, Dharmasthala, Moodbidri, Karkala and often Udupi or Kollur, built around temple timings and a driver who accepts that a family will spend three hours inside a temple complex and needs the vehicle waiting when they emerge. Luggage capacity is the deciding advantage on a week-long trip: a 20 seater takes what four cabs would struggle with. Jain family and trust groups on this route are frequently fifteen to twenty-four people, which is exactly the band this fleet covers.

Budget Package

For groups where cost per head decides the booking. Non-AC 12 to 17 seater mini buses, point to point, no frills, clean vehicle, verified driver — suited to college groups, community associations and pilgrimage parties. The mini bus rate per km in bangalore for the non-AC tier is our lowest, and across a 345 kilometre one-way run the saving over a full group is substantial. The Ghat road is cool enough for most of the year that non-AC is a reasonable choice here in a way it is not on a Tamil Nadu route. The budget tier is about vehicle specification only — maintenance, driver vetting and statutory compliance do not vary by tier.

Luxury and Executive Package

Executive mini coach configuration with fewer, wider push-back seats, extra legroom, better sound insulation and premium interiors. On a Ghat descent the suspension and seat quality are a mechanical difference rather than a cosmetic one. Suited to senior management travel, milestone family trips and trust or committee groups that want to arrive unruffled. For a step further, our luxury urbania rental bangalore option in 13 to 17 seater configuration runs the same corridor.

Our Minibus Fleet in Bangalore

Our ac minibus rental bangalore fleet covers 12, 14, 17, 20 and 24 seater configurations. We operate the full range of group vehicles from one Bangalore base, so if your headcount shifts after booking we can usually move you up or down a category without restarting the process.

•             Mini bus — 12 to 24 seater, AC and non-AC, the core vehicle for this route

•             Tempo traveller — 8 to 18 seater, for smaller groups on the same corridor

•             Bus — 27 to 50 seater, including Volvo and Benz coaches, though full-size coaches cannot use Charmadi Ghat and must approach Venur via Shiradi

•             Force Urbania — 13 to 17 seater luxury van

•             Cars — 4 to 7 seater, from Etios, Dzire, Innova, Innova Crysta, Innova Hycross, Fortuner and Commuter through Corolla Altis, Camry, Audi A6, Audi Q7, BMW 5 Series, BMW 7 Series, Mercedes-Benz E Class, Mercedes-Benz S Class and Rolls-Royce Ghost

Tejas Tours and Travels does not operate sleeper bus services. All our vehicles are seated configuration with push-back seats. On this route we plan a daytime run with a hotel halt rather than overnight driving through Charmadi, which is both more comfortable and considerably safer.

Billing Details — What Is Included and What Is Extra

We quote in writing before you book and the quote itemises everything, so nothing appears for the first time at trip end. A 20 percent advance of the total fare confirms your booking.

Included in the Quoted Fare

•             Base fare and fuel charges

•             Driver allowance

Not Included — Billed Separately at Actuals

•             Toll charges and parking fees

•             Interstate tax, where an itinerary crosses into another state

•             Additional driver bata after 9:45 PM

•             GST as applicable

•             Final rental is calculated on total kilometres and hours from our garage to garage

The Venur route stays inside Karnataka throughout, so no interstate permit applies unless the itinerary extends into Kerala or Goa. The garage-to-garage basis is standard across the organised group transport industry in Bangalore: the meter starts when the vehicle leaves our garage for your pickup point and ends when it returns. It is factored into the written quote, so the number you approve is the number you pay.

Tejas Tours and Travels does not provide passenger insurance cover. Passengers are advised to arrange their own travel insurance if required. Vehicle insurance and full statutory driver and vehicle compliance are maintained across the fleet.
