Board at one gate
Fifty people board at one gate at six. Near the palace, the Town Hall multi level parking takes only cars, not buses, so pick a school ground or a temple yard for a coach. Load food, water cans and puja items in the hold. The bus takes the expressway out of the city towards Maddur. Goravanahalli is about 180 km, four and a half hours by coach with halts, so the group reaches the temple before noon.

Optional tea
Mandya, half way to the breakfast stop at Maddur, is an optional tea halt. A coach can take the exit and park at a highway hotel for fifteen minutes. The district gets about 733 mm of rain a year, and October is usually the wettest month, so expect showers on this stretch then. Most bus groups prefer to drive straight on, since stopping fifty people twice in an hour costs time, and Maddur is only 20 km on.

Breakfast for fifty
Maddur is the breakfast halt. The expressway goes round the town, and the vada shops are reached from the exit, where the bigger eateries have room for a bus. Order vada and coffee for fifty in advance so the food is ready. The Shimsha flows through the town, and locals call the river Madduru Hole. Keep thirty minutes and do one head count. From here the coach takes State Highway 33 north, a two way road through villages.

Tea halt
Kunigal is the tea halt on the way north, about 115 km from Mysore. Silk cocoon rearing and beedi rolling are the work of the town. Hutridurga, a fortified hill rising to about 3,708 ft, is in the south east of the taluk, a trek for another time. The coach parks at a highway hotel near the NH75 crossing for fifteen minutes, then continues about 35 km to Tumakuru on the state highway.

Fuel and supplies
Tumkur (Tumakuru) is the district headquarters, at about 800 m. Road signs use both names, since the city became officially Tumakuru in 2014. The bus stops twenty minutes for diesel and restrooms; buy fruit and water for the group here, because the temple village has only simple meals. The last stretch north towards Koratagere is a district road, slower for a full coach, so allow about forty minutes for the last part.

Meeting point at the temple
By bus it is about four and a half hours from Mysore with these stops. For a bus group at Goravanahalli, fix a meeting point and a time before everyone walks off. Weekdays are quieter; Fridays are packed, so check bus parking if you go on a Friday. Simple meals are served near the temple. The Sri Mahalakshmi temple is the reason for the trip, and the bus waits until the whole group is back.
Planning Mysore to Goravanahalli bus hire for a temple group of 45 from your area? Fridays draw big crowds, and one bus keeps the whole group in one queue. It comes from our bus on rent in Mysore fleet, running since 2009. We pick you up in Mysuru at a hotel near the zoo or the palace or the city bus stand.

Yes. Share the date and group size and you get it in writing.
There is open parking, but Fridays get crowded. Reach by 9 am for a closer spot.
A night allowance applies when driving goes past 10 pm; we show it on the quote.
Not included. GST, tolls, parking and any permit are charged at actual.
Goravanahalli groups under 35 take the 33 or 35 seater, roughly 40 the 40 seater, 45 to 50 the 45, 49 or 50 seater. Sizes are on bus on rent in Mysore.
November to February is cool and dry, the easiest time for a group of fifty to queue and walk. The rains fall from June to October around Mandya and Tumakuru, and summer from March to May is hot on the bus and in the queue. In any season, a weekday visit avoids the Friday crowds.
Plenty. Under the floor of a big coach there is room for cooking vessels, drinking water cans, flower baskets and a bag per family. Inside, keep only small hand bags so nobody trips in the aisle. Groups that cook at home usually serve lunch at Tumakuru on the way back, because the temple village sells only plain meals.
