Family pickup
The tempo traveller comes to your house, the station or a hotel in Mysuru at 6:30 and loads the bags and food boxes into the back. Families who came to Mysore from outside often want Mysore pak or sandalwood soap to take home; buy them the evening before, because this is a long day. The park is about 165 km away, around three and a half hours by van. The route goes up the expressway and round the city on NICE Road. Srirangapatna, 15 km out, is the first town.
Drive past
At Srirangapatna, 15 km from Mysore, the van crosses the Kaveri. The white Gumbaz stands about 3 km off the road, where Tipu Sultan is buried with his parents, and it closes about 6 pm. On a park day there is no time for it, so the van continues. The toll for the first part of the expressway is collected at Gananguru, just past the island. Children can start their snacks; breakfast is at Ramanagara, which is still a good 80 km ahead.
Tea and restroom
Mandya, 45 km out, is a quick break for tea and the restroom. The roadside stalls press sugarcane juice in front of you, a treat for children. Mandya's jaggery, made in small village units, is sold in blocks; it travels well in the back of the van for the return. The town is the district headquarters at about 678 m and is warm by mid morning. Ten minutes and the van is back on the expressway towards Ramanagara, 50 km on.
Breakfast
Ramanagara, about 95 km out, is breakfast. Twenty minutes is enough for fifteen people to eat idli or dosa and refill bottles. The town is famous for silk, and cocoons from here go to the Mysore silk looms. The granite hills are called Closepet granite, after the old name of the town. Janapada Loka, the folk museum by the highway, is closed on Tuesdays, like the park, and needs its own visit. After breakfast the van has about 35 km to Kengeri.
Join NICE Road
At Kengeri the tempo traveller leaves the expressway and joins NICE Road, the tolled ring road that skirts the south of the city. It saves the jam at Nayandahalli, the worst choke point on the old Mysore Road, and reaches the Bannerghatta Road exit in about thirty minutes. Kengeri sits at about 826 m, a little higher than Mysore. The Big Banyan Tree road also turns off near here, a sight for another day. The park is about 35 km ahead.
Park entrance
The tempo traveller stops at the main entrance and then parks in the lot, where it waits all day. Tickets for the safari are sold at the counter near the gate; check timings when you arrive. Lunch can be at the canteen near the gate or packed from Mysore. Keep the children's caps and water bottles handy. The park is closed on Tuesdays. Agree a pickup time with the driver, so the van is at the gate as the group comes out.
Planning a Mysore to Bannerghatta National Park tempo traveller trip for the family and the children? It takes 9 to 20 people door to door, and the day fits the zoo, the safari and the butterfly park. The driver picks you up at home, a Mysuru hotel or Mandakalli airport. Tejas Tours & Travels has kept tempo traveller on rent in Mysore since 2009.

Mysore to Shirdi
I had an excellent experience with Tejas Travel. The vehicle was clean, comfortable, and very well maintained. The driver was polite, punctual, and knew the routes perfectly, which made our trip smooth and enjoyable. Their service was professional from start to finish, and the pricing was also very reasonable. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable travel vehicle services. 👍

It is about 165 km one way, about 330 km both ways. The tempo traveller uses the expressway via Mandya and Ramanagara to Kengeri and then the tolled NICE Road to the park. With breakfast at Ramanagara the trip takes about 3.5 hours, so a 6:30 start reaches the gate by mid morning.
Yes. Ask and we quote it. One way is ₹2 more per km than a return, with the km fixed in the written quote.
Not included. For Bannerghatta, parking, tolls and GST at actual. One day, 330 km in a 12 seater comes to ₹8,520 at ₹24/km, with ₹500 for the driver.
A night allowance is charged only for late night driving. It is shown in the quote. ₹600 to ₹700, by size a night is the tempo traveller rate.
Four to five hours covers the safari, the zoo and the butterfly park.
The 12 seater, or 14 for more room. All sizes on tempo traveller on rent in Mysore.
April is the hottest month around the city, with afternoon highs of about 34 to 36 C. In summer we suggest a 6 am start so the group is in the park by mid morning and done with the open walks before the worst heat. Carry caps and plenty of water; the van stays air conditioned in the lot for breaks.
Yes. The tempo traveller waits in the parking lot all day with the driver, so bags, spare clothes and lunch boxes can stay inside. Take only water, cameras and wallets into the park. When the group comes out, call the driver and he brings the van to the gate.
