Pickup at your door
Tell us the address. Your own gate, a palace area hotel, Mysore Junction, the suburban bus stand or the Mandakalli airport all work for a car. Mysore's ring road loops some 41.5 km around town, so the cab can slip out to the Nanjangud road and never meet the central traffic. Nanjangud is 25 km out, roughly half an hour. Chamarajanagar is only 60 km away, so any start time works, but leave by 8 if you want darshan at Nanjangud before the temple shuts at 1 pm. Breakfast can wait for Chamarajanagar.
Temple stop
Nanjangud comes up after about half an hour, a temple town on the Kabini, which locals call the Kapila. The Srikanteshwara temple is the reason to stop; people call the town Dakshina Kashi, the Kashi of the south. With a car you can park close to the gate and finish darshan in 30 to 45 minutes. Wear modest, traditional clothes. Look out for rasabale, the small GI tagged banana of Nanjangud, at the fruit stalls; very few farmers still grow it, so buy it when you see it. Here the cab leaves the Ooty highway and heads east for Chamarajanagar, 35 km on.
Drive on
Badanavalu is a farming village 10 km past Nanjangud, where the road runs flat and mostly straight. There are a few tea stalls and no proper hotel, so the cab normally drives through without a stop. The village is known for an old khadi centre close to the road; if it interests you, tell the driver and he slows down for a look. Keep water and snacks in the car from Mysore, because shops are few till the town. Chamarajanagar is about 25 km ahead, roughly half an hour by car, and the drop there is the next halt.
Drive on
Badanaguppe sits 50 km out, the last stretch before Chamarajanagar, with an industrial area along the highway. It is not a place to stop, apart from tea at the roadside stalls. In a car this is the moment to call your hotel or the people you are meeting, since you are only about 10 km and a quarter of an hour from town. If you plan to go on to Yelandur, where the Gaurishvara temple has stone chains, that is about 20 km beyond Chamarajanagar on the Kollegal side; tell the driver now so he plans the return.
Drop in town
The cab drops you at the temple, your hotel or the house you are visiting; the town is small and a car reaches any lane. As the seat of the district at Karnataka's southern edge, the town keeps its government offices and the railway station on the Mysore line are all close by. For lunch, the local hotels serve ragi mudde with Karnataka meals. Cover shoulders and knees for any temple visit. The district is also called Silk City, so ask about silk if you are shopping. The Suvarnavathi dam, about 16 km out, fits an evening before the drive back.

We (15 families) hired a bus from Tejas to one of the resort at Kanakpura. Interacted with Lakshmi madam and requested her to provide a good Cab . The bus reached at exact time for pickup, the bus was extremely good and looked a new one only. Thanks Tejas team and Lakshmi madam, it was a wonderful experience and I would definitely recommend to avail their services.

Chamarajanagar is about 60 km from Mysore one way, so about 120 km there and back. The cab leaves on the Nanjangud road (NH766), turns east at Nanjangud and runs through Badanavalu and Badanaguppe into town. Plan on about an hour by car, plus whatever time you spend at the Nanjangud temple.
Yes. Ask for a Mysore to Chamarajanagar one way cab quote with your date; you get the distance and fare in writing.
Six going to Chamarajanagar? An Innova Crysta with the bags. For this trip it is ₹6,000 for 300 km at ₹20/km, plus ₹400 driver allowance. Every car we run is on cab rental in Mysore.
No, they are separate. Tolls, parking and permits are paid at cost, and GST is added on the bill.
Around 7:30 am, and you reach Chamarajanagar with the day still ahead. A car moves faster than the bigger vehicles, so there is time to wait for a late riser.
Only late night driving carries a driver night allowance. It is shown in the quote. ₹400 a night is the cab rate.
Yes, it is a flat plain road with no ghat, so rain only slows the car a little. The one thing we watch is Nanjangud: when the Kabini dam releases water in a heavy monsoon, the Kapila river floods low parts of the town, as it did in August 2018 and 2019. In July to September the driver checks the river news and, if needed, skips the temple lanes.
Very easy. It is about an hour on a flat road, so children rarely get bored or car sick. If you stop at Nanjangud, the temple is a short walk from the car. Carry water and a snack, because the villages after Nanjangud have only tea stalls. Tell us if you need a child seat; we confirm it with the car when you book.
