Pickup at your gate
The tempo traveller arrives at six. It is a three and a half hour run for the van with halts, and the family should reach the hill before the midday sun. If you are planning the zoo on another day of your stay, remember it is closed on Tuesdays. The van leaves Mysore on the expressway and turns north near Srirangapatna, so no time is lost in city traffic. Breakfast is at Nagamangala, a little over an hour away, so a tea at home is enough.
Drive on
Srirangapatna comes up quickly and the van keeps going. The island town has the Ranganathaswamy temple, the Gumbaz and the old fort walls, all better saved for a separate half day. If elders want a quick darshan on the way home, the driver can stop near the temple, as it is close to the road. The tempo traveller turns off the expressway here onto the road to Pandavapura, a quieter route with sugarcane on both sides.
Breakfast
Nagamangala is the breakfast stop, about 30 minutes for a family group. The tiffin places round the bus stand do tea and simple plates quickly. The van parks close to the door, so elders walk less. Look out for the Saumyakeshava temple in the old town. Nagamangala is the taluk town, and from here the road goes north on NH150A, the old Mysore to Tumakuru road, towards Bellur Cross. The children can stretch their legs before the next long stretch.
Tea break
At Bellur Cross the tempo traveller meets NH75, the Hassan highway, at an over bridge. The junction has fuel pumps and busy highway hotels, so a fifteen minute tea and washroom break is easy. Bellur village is a short way north of the cross. From here the van turns east for Kunigal, about 35 km. The Adichunchanagiri hill is close by, about 6 km from the highway, if a family wants to add it on another trip.
Through Kunigal
Kunigal sits at about 773 m beside its long lake, and the van drives through town without stopping. The local trades are silk cocoon rearing and beedi rolling, and you may see cocoon trays outside houses. At Kunigal State Highway 33 from Maddur crosses NH75, and the van takes it north towards Tumakuru, about 35 km. For a future trip, Hutridurga, a fortified hill with eight gateways, is in the south east of the taluk and needs half a day.
Supplies and fuel
Tumkur (Tumakuru) is a city of about 800 m, the last proper town before the hill. Stop fifteen minutes to fill water cans and buy fruit and snacks; temple meals on the hill are basic. The driver fills diesel here too. The city was officially renamed Tumakuru in 2014, so road signs show both names. Devarayanadurga is about 15 km on, through forest, and the road climbs gently to the parking.
Parking below the temple
About three and a half hours of driving from Mysore by tempo traveller. The van uses the parking below the upper temple steps, close to where you need to be. Elders who cannot climb can wait near the lower temple. Sunset from the top is worth staying for. Meals on the hill are simple temple food, so the snacks bought in Tumakuru help. Keep food bags in the van because monkeys grab them. Tumkur railway station is about 15 km away.
Need a Mysore to Devarayanadurga tempo traveller for 9 to 20 people to visit the Narasimha temples on the hill? The road to Devarayanadurga (Devarayadurga) runs via Nagamangala, Kunigal and Tumakuru, about 165 km from Mysuru. Our van for Devarayanadurga comes to a hotel near the palace or a hotel on Hunsur Road. You stop when the children need a break. Ask for a tempo traveller on rent in Mysore from Tejas Tours & Travels.

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. 👍

The Mysore to Devarayanadurga distance is about 165 km, about 330 km both ways. The tempo traveller goes via Srirangapatna, Nagamangala and Bellur Cross, then Kunigal and Tumkur (Tumakuru). Allow about three and a half hours, including breakfast and a fuel halt.
On request, yes. Share the date and group size and you get it in writing.
You can do it in a day, but 330 km round trip bills as two days under the 300 km a day rule.
No. Toll and parking receipts are added at actual, and GST goes on the final bill.
Only if the driver drives late at night; then a night allowance is added. ₹600 to ₹700, by size a night is the tempo traveller rate.
The 16 seater; two seats stay free for bags. Each size and rate is on tempo traveller on rent in Mysore.
All paved. The first stretch is the expressway, then a quieter district road through Pandavapura and Nagamangala, then NH150A to Bellur Cross, NH75 to Kunigal and State Highway 33 to Tumakuru. The last 15 km to the hill pass through forest and climb gently. A tempo traveller manages it easily; the driver slows down on the hill bends.
Yes, with a plan. The tempo traveller parks below the upper temple steps. The climb to the upper temple is on steps, so elders who find it hard can stay at the lower temple near the parking. Carry a folding stool and water for them, and start back before dark if they tire easily.
