Pickup in Mysuru
Guests arriving by air can be met at the Mandakalli airport; everyone else is collected from a house or hotel. The van loops round on the ring road and turns east on the Bannur side. If anyone wants to see Mysore silk being woven, the KSIC factory on Manandavadi Road lets visitors in free, though photos are not allowed inside; keep it for another day. Bheemeshwari is about 85 km, and the camp booking should be confirmed before you leave.
Drive on
Bannur comes up about 30 km from Mysore. The Urbania passes through without stopping; the town is small and the better halt is ahead. On the right, the road to Somanathapura leaves the highway here, a useful note if the group wants a temple stop on the drive back. About 20 km more brings you to Malavalli. Use the time to settle elders by the door and children by the windows.
Breakfast halt
Breakfast for the Urbania group is at Malavalli, a Mandya district town on the Maddur and Kollegal highway. Give it twenty minutes, so elders can eat sitting down without hurry. Beside a lake in town stands a temple with a carved, ornate gateway, a short walk if anyone wants to stretch. The Shimsha hydro station at Shimshapura is another sight of the taluk, better kept for a separate day. For the camp the van now takes the Halagur road, roughly 21 km to the next junction.
Junction
At Halagur the Urbania leaves NH 948, the highway towards Kanakapura, for the river road. The Bheemeshwari camp on the Kaveri is about 20 km further on a side road. Halagur sits on the Shimsha side and SH 94 meets the national highway here. No stop is needed. The last stretch is narrow with bends, so elders should hold the grab handles and children stay seated. If anyone feels queasy on curves, give them a front seat for these twenty minutes.
Drop at the camp
Roughly ninety minutes after leaving Mysore the Urbania pulls into Bheemeshwari, and the driver parks close to the reception. The camp is run by Jungle Lodges, with log huts on stilts and a day out package for visitors who are not staying. Meals and activities follow the package, so ask at the reception about timings. The river is fast and has crocodiles; nobody should enter it outside a guided coracle. The van waits there until the group is ready to head home.

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.

Expect close to 85 km each way, so the Urbania clocks roughly 170 km on a day visit. Its line runs east past Bannur, breaks for breakfast at Malavalli, turns at Halagur and finishes on a slim river road. Ninety minutes or a little over is normal in each direction.
A night allowance is charged only for late night driving. You see it in the quote first. For the Urbania: ₹700 a night.
It comes from owners we work with, with their driver, booked by us at our rate.
Yes, on request. Ask for a one way quote with your date, and we send it in writing.
No. The ₹40/km covers fuel, driver and AC; tolls, parking and GST are separate.
The 12 seater, with space for bags. The full size list is on Force Urbania on rent in Mysore.
The cooler months, October to February, are the easiest, with pleasant days by the Kaveri. In the monsoon the river is high and fast, and some water activities may be off, so check with the camp first. March to May is hot on the plains, so we start early from Mysore and plan the return before the afternoon heat.
Mostly. The Urbania parks near the camp gate, and the paths are short. Elders can rest in the shade while the others try the activities. The log huts sit on stilts, so check the steps before booking a room for someone who finds climbing hard. Pack their tablets in a pouch they can reach, and a folding stool helps.
