Group pickup
The mini bus picks up the group at half past five from one point. Members arriving by train can take the prepaid auto counter at the railway station to reach it. It is nearly ten hours to Hosapete with halts, so the early start matters. Load bags for three days, water cans and a first aid box. The mini bus heads out on the expressway towards Maddur, then north through Kunigal to Tumakuru.

Snack halt
Maddur is the first halt, about 65 km out. The mini bus comes off the expressway, as the vada sellers are in the old town that the new road skips. The name of the river here, Shimsha, changes in local talk to Madduru Hole, because it runs through the town. Twenty minutes for coffee and a snack, and one head count. Then the group heads north on the state highway towards Kunigal.

Breakfast
Breakfast is at Tumkur (Tumakuru). The city is an industrial hub and a Smart City now, so the driver uses a hotel on the highway side with space for the mini bus. Thirty minutes for twenty people. NH73 to Mangaluru meets NH48 here, and the mini bus stays on NH48 heading for Chitradurga, with one head count before leaving. The next stretch is about 130 km through Sira and Hiriyur, and lunch is at Chitradurga.

Lunch
Chitradurga is the lunch stop, an hour for the group. The upper fort has 18 old temples, the oldest being the Hidimbeshwara, but a full fort walk needs half a day. Inside the walls are grinding stones for gunpowder, granaries and a tall swing stand, a good teaching spot for students on another trip. Chitradurga is dry, with about 576 mm of rain a year. After lunch the mini bus turns onto NH50.

Tea break
Kudligi is the tea break, about 80 km after Chitradurga. Fifteen minutes for tea and restrooms; the mini bus parks on the highway side. Tamarind is the produce this area is known for. If the group likes wildlife, the Gudekote sloth bear sanctuary, about 38 sq km, is in the same taluk, though it needs a separate trip. Hosapete is about 45 km ahead, past Mariyammanahalli, so this is the last halt before the hotel.

Night halt
Hosapete is the night halt for the group, about 405 km from Mysore. Hosapete Junction is on the railway line between Hubballi and Guntakal, handy if anyone joins or leaves by train. The town has a large market, so the group can buy water cans, fruit and snacks for tomorrow; near the ruins shops are fewer. The mini bus parks at the hotel overnight, and the driver gets his rest.

Hampi day
After about nine and a half hours of driving from Mysore, plus the night in Hosapete, the mini bus takes the group into Hampi, 13 km away. Start early; the rocks get hot by noon. The mini bus moves the group between the main areas. At the Vittala side private vehicles stop at the parking and battery cars go on. Agree a meeting point at each stop, as Hampi is spread over a wide area.
Booking a Mysore to Hampi mini bus for 20 friends or a family reunion among the ruins? It is the easiest size for Hampi: it reaches the lots near Virupaksha and Vittala and turns on the narrow roads. Book mini bus on rent in Mysore. We pick up from the Mysuru railway station, a hostel or two homes.

It is around 415 km by road, near 830 km with the return. A mini bus group travels by Maddur, Tumkur (Tumakuru) and Chitradurga, then up NH50 past Kudligi to Hosapete. With some nine and a half hours on the road, we book the night in Hosapete and visit Hampi fresh next day.
The 20 seater. Sizes on mini bus on rent in Mysore.
Yes. One way to Hampi costs ₹2 more per km than the return rate; the quote states the km. Ask and we quote it.
Hosapete has the most hotels. Kamalapura and Hampi village have smaller stays closer to the ruins.
No. Hampi: GST, tolls and parking come on top. A 20 seater for 3 days, 900 km is ₹30,600, with ₹2,100 driver allowance.
Past 10 pm on the Hampi trip, our driver gets a night allowance of ₹600 to ₹700 a night, by size.
At Chitradurga NH50 branches off NH48 towards Hosapete. The mini bus follows it through Jagalur taluk, Kudligi and Mariyammanahalli, about 125 km. It is the direct road to Hampi, so the group reaches Hosapete in the late afternoon without going through big cities.
Keep a bag with water, snacks and caps near the children's seats. The first day has four halts, so they get a break every two hours or so. At Hampi, start early and rest at lunch, because the rocks get hot. Give each child a card with the driver's number in case anyone gets separated.
