Places to Visit in Wayanad

Chembra Peak
Chembra Peak is the highest point in Wayanad at close to 2,100 metres, and it is the first name that comes up whenever people search for trekking in Wayanad. The trail winds through tea plantations before opening into wide grasslands, and roughly halfway up sits the heart-shaped Chembra Lake, a natural landmark that never dries out even in peak summer. Trekking is permitted only in the morning hours and requires a forest department pass, so travellers usually plan this as the first stop after checking into their resort. The reason this peak features on almost every Wayanad itinerary is the view from the top: on a clear day you can see across the district into neighbouring Tamil Nadu and Karnataka, with layers of the Western Ghats fading into the horizon. Photographers and honeymoon couples in particular ask us to build a full day around this trek, since the drive up to the base and the return can take a good part of the morning.

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.

Mysore
Palace City of Karnataka
The first leg of the journey covers around 150 kilometres and typically takes close to three hours, depending on traffic while leaving the city and the number of toll stretches on the Bangalore-Mysore expressway. This stretch is fast and well maintained, so most drivers use it as the first natural break in a long drive, especially if the pickup was early in the morning. Mysore itself is worth pausing in even briefly: the Mysore Palace, with its domes and evening illumination, is one of the most recognised landmarks in South India, and travellers who leave Bangalore before dawn sometimes plan a short breakfast stop here before continuing toward Wayanad. Highlights along this stretch include the Bangalore-Mysore Infrastructure Corridor, glimpses of Srirangapatna's river islands just off the highway, and the approach into Mysore city, which is noticeably greener and quieter than Bangalore's outer ring roads. For travellers doing a Bangalore to Mysore Wayanad combined trip, this first stop often becomes an overnight halt rather than a quick pause, particularly for families travelling with children or elderly members who prefer to break up a long drive into two shorter days.

Gundlupet
Gateway to Bandipur
From Mysore, the route continues through Nanjangud and on to Gundlupet, covering roughly 65 additional kilometres and bringing the total distance from Bangalore to around 215 kilometres. This section of the drive passes directly through the Bandipur Tiger Reserve and Bandipur National Park, and it is not unusual to see spotted deer or even wild elephants crossing the road, particularly in the early morning or at dusk. Because this is a protected forest corridor, night driving is restricted between 9 PM and 6 AM, which is one reason drivers plan pickup times carefully for a same-day Bangalore to Wayanad cab trip. The road narrows through the reserve and speed limits are strictly enforced, so this stretch takes longer per kilometre than the highway before it. Travellers who enjoy wildlife sightings often rate this as one of the most memorable parts of the entire journey, even before reaching Wayanad's own sanctuaries. Gundlupet, just before the Kerala border, is the last reasonably sized town for fuel, food and restrooms before the vehicle climbs into the ghat sections leading to Wayanad.

Sultan Bathery
Historic Hill Town
The drive from Gundlupet to Sultan Bathery covers around 50 kilometres and marks the entry into Kerala and the Wayanad district through the Muthanga forest checkpoint. This stretch includes a noticeable change in scenery, as dry deciduous forest gradually gives way to the greener, more humid landscape typical of the Western Ghats. Sultan Bathery, the first proper town on the Kerala side, sits close to both the Edakkal Caves and the Muthanga range of the Wayanad Wildlife Sanctuary, which is why many itineraries treat it as the point where sightseeing effectively begins rather than the resort itself. Cabs booked through Tejas Travels usually recommend arranging the Muthanga safari or the Edakkal Caves visit on the way in, since backtracking later in the trip adds unnecessary driving time. The town also has the last major fuel stations and ATMs before travellers head deeper into the hill areas around Kalpetta and Vythiri, so most drivers suggest a short stop here regardless of the day's plan

Wayanad Town
Reached your Destination
The final stretch from Sultan Bathery to Kalpetta, the district headquarters, is a short but scenic 20 to 25 kilometres, bringing the total trip distance to roughly 285 to 290 kilometres from Bangalore. The road winds gently through spice plantations, small tea estates and roadside stalls selling local coffee and spices, giving travellers their first real sense of Wayanad's slower pace after the highway driving earlier in the day. Kalpetta serves as a convenient base for most resorts and homestays, with reasonably short drives from here to Chembra Peak, Pookode Lake and Banasura Sagar Dam. Depending on where exactly the accommodation is located, some routes continue slightly further toward Vythiri or Meppadi, adding another 10 to 15 kilometres. By this point, the total travel time from Bangalore typically falls between six and seven hours including short breaks, which is why most travellers treat a Bangalore to Wayanad cab journey as a comfortable single-day drive rather than something that needs to be split across two days, provided the pickup happens reasonably early in the morning.

Cab Packages for Your Wayanad Trip
Not every traveller needs the same kind of vehicle or package, which is why we offer a few different options depending on group size, comfort expectations and budget.
Budget Cab Package
For solo travellers or couples looking to keep costs down, our Budget Cab Package offers a well-maintained
hatchback or sedan at the lowest per-kilometre rate we offer for the Bangalore to Wayanad stretch. This package suits travellers who mainly need point-to-point transport rather than multiple sightseeing stops, and it remains one of the most searched options among people comparing a Bangalore to Wayanad cab booking for a quick trip. You can view current vehicle options on our cab rental
Family Cab Package
Families travelling with children, elderly parents or extra luggage usually prefer an SUV or Toyota Innova Crysta, Innova Hycross vehicle, which is exactly what our Family Cab Package is built around. This option includes more boot space, higher ground clearance for the ghat sections near Sultan Bathery, and the flexibility to add sightseeing stops at Pookode Lake or Banasura Sagar Dam without feeling cramped. It is one of our most frequently booked packages for a Wayanad tour package from Bangalore during school holidays and long weekends.
Corporate Travel Package
Businesses sending employees on official visits to Wayanad, or organising an offsite for their team, generally book through our dedicated Corporate Travels service, which includes monthly billing, dedicated account management and vehicles ranging from sedans to Volvo buses depending on team size. This package is built around reliability and documentation rather than sightseeing, and is one of our steadiest sources of repeat bookings from IT companies and manufacturing firms based in Bangalore.
Luxury Package
For travellers who want a more premium experience, our Luxury Package includes vehicles such as the Toyota Innova Crysta or the Force Urbania, both of which offer significantly more legroom, better suspension for the ghat roads, and a more comfortable ride for longer trips. This is a popular choice for honeymoon travellers and small groups booking a Wayanad trip as a special occasion rather than a routine holiday.
Group and Tempo Traveller Package
Groups of eight or more, whether college friends, extended families or corporate teams, generally move to our Tempo Traveller or MiniBus packages, which work out considerably cheaper per head than booking multiple sedans. These vehicles also make it easier to keep a group together through sightseeing stops like Chembra Peak or Kuruva Island rather than splitting across cars.
Wedding Package
Wayanad has become a populardestination wedding location for couples from Bangalore, and our Wedding Cab and Bus package is built specifically for this, with decorated cars for the couple and larger buses for guests travelling together. Bookings under this package are usually made well in advance given the seasonal demand around the winter wedding months.

How to Book a Car for Rent in Bangalore — Step-by-Step
Booking a Car for hire in Bangalore with Tejas Travels takes under 5 minutes. Follow these 4 steps:
STEP1 | 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 KIA airport pickups, share the flight number — the driver tracks live flight status and adjusts pickup timing for delayed flights automatically. For luxury vehicles (Audi, BMW, Mercedes, Rolls-Royce), also mention the occasion — corporate, wedding, VIP event — so the team can ensure the best-condition vehicle and, where required, formal chauffeur attire. |
STEP2 | Receive Your Written Quote Within 2 hours of your enquiry, Tejas Travels sends a written quote via WhatsApp or email. The quote clearly itemizes every charge: vehicle hire rate (Rs/km or flat package), driver allowance (Rs 400-1,000/day depending on vehicle class), applicable toll estimates, and any interstate permit if applicable (Tamil Nadu for Ooty, Kerala for Wayanad, Andhra Pradesh for Tirupati). No verbal-only prices — everything in writing before you confirm. For corporate clients requiring reimbursements, a Proforma Invoice can be issued at this stage. If you want to compare two vehicle classes, request both quotes at the same time. |
STEP3 | Confirm Your Booking & Pay Advance Once satisfied with the written quote, confirm via WhatsApp or phone. A 15-20% advance payment confirms the booking. Payment: UPI (Google Pay, PhonePe, Paytm), NEFT/IMPS/RTGS bank transfer, or credit/debit card via payment link. Advance receipt within 30 minutes. Confirmation includes: driver name and mobile, vehicle registration, departure time, pickup location, and full billing breakdown — all in writing. For luxury vehicles (Rolls-Royce Ghost, BMW 7 Series, Mercedes S-Class), advance may be higher due to limited fleet and Bangalore peak-date demand (wedding season November-February, New Year). |
STEP4 | Your Driver Arrives Early Your assigned Tejas Travels driver arrives at your confirmed Bangalore pickup point 15 minutes before scheduled departure. For KIA airport transfers, the driver coordinates at the Arrivals gate. The vehicle is clean, sanitized, fuelled, and ready. For wedding and VIP bookings, the driver arrives in formal attire. The driver calls 30 minutes before arrival as a courtesy. During the trip, the driver handles all routing, toll payments, and Bangalore traffic navigation. At trip end, balance payment is settled after deducting the advance. Any additional km or hours are billed at the pre-agreed rate. |

What Our Customers Say About Our Cab Services in Bangalore
Why Choose Tejas Tours and Travels?
Frequently Asked Questions — Bangalore to Wayanad Cab
The distance between Bangalore and Wayanad is approximately 270 to 290 kilometres depending on the exact route and drop location within Wayanad, and the drive typically takes six to seven hours including short breaks.
Fares for a Bangalore to Wayanad cab typically start from around Rs. 4,500 to Rs. 5,500 for a one-way sedan trip, and vary based on vehicle type, toll charges, driver allowance and whether it is booked as one-way or round trip.
Yes, one-way cabs are available for this route, and most operators, including Tejas Travels, charge a one-way fare without requiring payment for the return leg, unlike some services that charge for the empty return journey.
You can check our Cancellation policy - https://www.tejastravels.com/cancellation-policy
Most cab operators, including ours, ask for a small advance of around 10 percent of the total fare to confirm the booking, with the remaining amount payable directly to the driver
in cash or online at the end of the trip.
Toll charges, the state permit fee for entering Kerala, and parking fees are usually charged separately from the base fare
Since part of the route passes through the Bandipur Tiger Reserve, night driving is restricted between 9 PM and 6 AM. Cab operators plan pickup and drop timings around this restriction, so it is important to confirm your schedule in advance if you are travelling close to these hours.
Extra stops or an extended trip can usually be arranged directly with the driver or by informing the operator in advance, though this may involve an additional per-kilometre or per-day charge beyond what was originally quoted.
A standard sedan can comfortably carry two to three medium suitcases, while an SUV or Innova can handle four to five bags along with cabin luggage. For larger groups or extra
luggage, a tempo traveller is usually the more practical option.
