Pickup in Mysuru
Seniors and family are collected at 5:30 by the Urbania, from a palace side hotel, the station or the city bus stand. For a market lover, the old lanes of Devaraja market near the station, heaped with flowers, fruit and kumkum, make a good hour on the evening you return. Rather than crossing town, the Urbania joins NH275 north, passes the island of Srirangapatna and then branches onto the KR Pet road at Pandavapura. Banavasi lies about seven and a half hours ahead, with seven gentle halts.
Tea
Channarayapatna, 90 km from Mysore, is the first rest for elders, fifteen minutes for tea and the restroom. The Kadabahalli toll plaza on this part of NH75 is paid by FASTag, so the Urbania does not stop there. For a slower trip some day, the Hoysala temples at Nuggehalli, about 20 km away, are peaceful and well carved. Arsikere comes about 55 km later. The driver keeps the AC on and the door open for elders who prefer to sit.
Breakfast and fuel
Breakfast is at Arsikere, 145 km out, with twenty five minutes so elders can eat slowly. The Urbania takes fuel at the same time. NH73 and NH69 meet in this coconut country town, and the Ishvara temple here, a Hoysala work of 1220, faces east. The AC helps on the dry stretch ahead. Bhadravathi is about 85 km on. Elders can use this halt for any morning medicines, and the driver tops up the drinking water in the Urbania.
Tea
Bhadravathi, 230 km from Mysore, gives elders a fifteen minute tea and restroom halt. The town is known for steel and paper, and for its Hoysala trikuta temple of Lakshmi Narasimha, which has been under restoration in recent years. The Bhadra dam at Lakkavalli is about 18 km off. Shivamogga, for lunch, is only 20 km on. Elders who need a restroom should use it here, as the next stretch has fewer clean stops.
Lunch
The group reaches Shivamogga, still printed Shimoga on many signs, for lunch at 250 km. Seniors get forty minutes at a quiet table, and the Urbania waits in the shade. This city on the Tunga is where Malnad, the land of rain and areca gardens, begins. Shivamogga's own airport lies about 13 km south of town, handy if any member flies back later. After lunch NH69 leads on to Sagar, around 75 km, and Banavasi is about 120 km away. The group can ask for a quieter table for elders at the hotel.
Tea
Sagar, 325 km out, is a calm Malnad town on the Varada river and the Urbania's afternoon tea halt. Varadamoola, where the Varada river begins, is about 6 km away, and Nadakalasi, about 8 km off, has 12th century temples. Elders can rest in the Urbania while others buy spices from the areca and pepper gardens of the area. Fifteen minutes, then north to Sorab. Elders who tire easily can stay seated with the AC on while the others shop.
Tea
Sorab, 350 km from Mysore, is the last halt before Banavasi. The small taluk town has tea stalls, washrooms and fuel on its main road, and elders can use the restroom here in comfort. The Chandragutti hill temple lies about 15 km off the road. Banavasi is only 20 km ahead, so the group arrives fresh. Elders should carry a shawl for the temple, as the evening air turns cool.
Drop near the temple
About seven and a half hours after Mysore, the Urbania stops close to the temple in Banavasi, a quiet village in Uttara Kannada. The easy step helps elders down. Wear modest clothes. Malnad meals are available at small eating places in the village. Sirsi, about 24 km away, is a larger town with more choice for food and shopping, if the group wants it after the visit. Ask the driver to park in the shade during the visit.

Mysore 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 road distance is about 370 km each way, about 740 km for the round trip. The Urbania runs by Channarayapatna, Arsikere, Bhadravathi and Shivamogga (Shimoga) to Sagar and Sorab. Allow about 7.5 hours with the halts, which keeps the day gentle for elders.
Banavasi is a small village. Most groups stay in Sirsi, about 23 km away, or in Sagar.
For Banavasi, the 12 seater, so everyone sits and bags fit. All sizes are on Force Urbania on rent in Mysore.
Sure. The one way fare is quoted in writing for your date.
No. Tolls, parking, permits and GST are added at actual cost.
Any driving after 10 pm adds the driver's night allowance; it shows in the quote.
It can be. Mysore winter mornings are cool, and with the AC on, elders may feel it for the first 7.5 hours. Keep a shawl or light jacket in the hand bag. By Arsikere the day warms up. October to March is still the most pleasant season for Banavasi.
Yes. The drive is about 7.5 hours with seven halts, so elders never sit too long. The Urbania's reclining seats and low step help on a long day. At Banavasi the drop is close to the temple. Keep elders' medicines and water in a hand bag.
