Pickup at your door
Goa in one day is a long haul, around 610 km, so the cab reaches your home or hotel in Mysuru at 5:00 am and the driver keeps a steady pace. If anyone wants a Mysore silk saree as a gift, the KSIC weaving factory on Manandavadi Road lets you watch the looms for free, but that is a job for the return. We go out on the Hunsur road, turn at Bilikere onto SH57 and run north through KR Nagar. Breakfast is at Hassan, roughly two hours ahead.
Drive through
Holenarasipura, about 80 km out, is a Hemavathi river town that the cab passes without stopping, since breakfast is only some 35 km further. The name joins hole, the river, with Narasimha, after the 16th century Lakshmi Narasimha temple in town. SH57 through here carries far less traffic than the Hunsur highway, which is why we choose it for Goa. Hassan comes next, and the long northern run begins after breakfast.
Breakfast
Twenty minutes in Hassan, about 120 km from home, covers breakfast for four. The plates of this district are ragi mudde with green curry, akki rotti and kadubu, washed down with Malnad filter coffee. Hassan Junction station sits on the Mysore to Mangalore line, in case a member joins by rail. Do eat properly here; the next real meal is lunch in Shivamogga, about 155 km on. From Hassan the cab heads north to Kadur, with roughly 490 km still to go to Panaji.
Tea halt
Kadur, near the 200 km mark, is a ten minute halt for tea and the washroom. From this town NH69 runs all the way to Honnavar on the coast, and that highway carries us most of the day. The countryside is dry plain at about 760 m, under the rain shadow, with coconut and areca farms. Bhadravathi, the steel town, is roughly 60 km ahead, and Shivamogga lunch about 75 km.
Lunch
Lunch is at Shivamogga (Shimoga), close to 275 km out, and the cab takes thirty five minutes here. The city sits on the Tunga at the edge of the Malnad hills. Appe midi, the tender mango pickle from nearby Sagar, is sold in the shops if you want a jar for Goa. The driver fills the tank. Sagar is about 75 km on, and after it the road begins to drop towards the coast.
Tea halt
Sagar, about 350 km from Mysore, is a fifteen minute tea halt on the Varada river. Most families buy appe midi pickle or a small sandalwood carving made by the town's Gudigar families. Jog Falls lies about 30 km on along NH69; a short look at the viewpoints is possible if you leave Mysore on time, but it adds an hour. After Jog the highway goes down the ghat to Honnavar, about 80 km away.
Coast halt
Honnavar, around 430 km out, is where the cab reaches the sea, at the mouth of the Sharavathi. Take fifteen minutes for tea and a stretch. From here we turn north on NH66, the coastal highway, which runs through Kumta, about 19 km on, and up to Karwar. The town gets about 3,732 mm of rain a year, so in the monsoon the coast road is wet and slower. Panaji is still about 180 km away.
Tea before Goa
Karwar, about 520 km from Mysore, is the last Karnataka town before Goa, at the mouth of the Kali river. Twenty minutes gives time for tea and a stretch by the river mouth. Seafood is the cuisine here; kurle ambat, a crab masala, is the local dish if you stop for dinner on the return. Sadashivgad, the hill fort across the Kali, stands by the road. Madgaon in Goa is about 68 km north.
Hotel drop
The cab reaches Panaji after about 12.5 to 13 hours of driving with the halts, usually in the evening. The driver drops you at your hotel door. Panaji was laid out on a grid, with stepped streets and a riverside promenade, so central streets are narrow and parking is tight. Porvorim, with the Legislative Assembly, sits across the Mandovi. Book the hotel before you leave Mysore, especially in the December holiday weeks.
Booking a Mysore to Goa cab for four people and a coastal drive? By car you can do it in one long day, but two days is kinder. Some call it the Mysore to Goa taxi; it is the same car with a driver. We have been doing cab rental in Mysore since 2009. Start point in Mysuru can be the hotels around the palace or the KSRTC city bus stand.

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.

Panaji in Goa is about 610 km from Mysore by road, around 1,220 km both ways. The cab goes up SH57 to Hassan, through Kadur and Shivamogga to Sagar, down the ghat to Honnavar and up the coast by Karwar. It is about 12.5 to 13 hours of driving with halts, so plan one long day or break it at Shivamogga.
Yes. A Mysore to Goa one way taxi is on request; you receive the fare before booking.
Goa with four people: Dzire or Etios. Six or seven, or four with big bags: Innova or Innova Crysta. All our cars are on cab rental in Mysore.
Yes, if you prefer. It is a little longer; tell us when you book.
Late driving after 10 pm carries a night bata, listed in your quote before you book. ₹400 a night is the cab rate.
They are extra. You pay tolls, parking, permits and GST at actual, with receipts.
Yes, with patience. From June to September the coast from Honnavar to Karwar gets very heavy rain, about 3,279 mm a year at Karwar, and the ghat after Jog is wet. The cab drives the ghat and the coast road in daylight. October to March is the dry season and the easiest time for the drive.
A sedan boot takes two medium suitcases and a small bag; four people with a week of clothes should book the Innova or Ertiga. Keep swimwear and a change of clothes on top so you can reach them without unloading. Bottles of local pickle from Sagar travel well if packed in a cloth bag.
