Family pickup
The tempo traveller is at your door at 6 am, and the bags go into the rear before anyone climbs in. Kannur is about 190 km away, roughly four hours with family halts. From home the van joins the outer ring road, which circles Mysore for about 41.5 km, and leaves it at the Hinkal flyover for the Hunsur road, so the city centre is never on the way. Keep a light jacket for the Kodagu morning; Kerala will be warm and humid by noon.
Family breakfast
An hour after pickup the van halts in Hunsur, and the family eats idli and dosa with steaming coffee at a roadside hotel. Twenty five minutes gives everyone time for breakfast and the restroom. Children usually drift over to look at the low weir on the Lakshmana Tirtha river. Tobacco is so important here that ICAR runs a research station in the town. After breakfast the van takes the south western road for Gonikoppal, about 45 km away.
Through Gonikoppal
The van does not stop in Gonikoppal today, though it is the busiest market in south Kodagu, surrounded on all sides by coffee and pepper plantations. Teenagers who like adventure might want to hear that the Barapole river nearby turns into a white water rafting run during the monsoon, worth a separate trip. Shops along the main road sell freshly ground coffee. Virajpet, where the family has a tea break, lies about 20 km further on.
Tea and fuel
Virajpet is the last big town in Kodagu before the Kerala border, founded by the Kodagu king Dodda Vira Rajendra in 1792. The family stops a quarter hour for tea and toilets while the tank is filled. Three state highways cross here, and SH 91 goes down to Kannur through the twisting Makutta ghat, so give anyone who gets car sick a window seat and a light snack. Iritty is about 35 km away.
Snack in Iritty
Iritty is where the family lands in Kerala, at the foot of the ghat beside the Bavali river. Twenty minutes is enough for tea and a Kerala snack. Children enjoy the old steel bridge across the river, which dates from 1933. For a longer holiday, the Aralam Wildlife Sanctuary lies about 8 km away and the Pazhassi dam about 10 km. Kannur is 45 km further, about an hour of easy road.
Family drop
The van drops the family at the hotel or home in Kannur. Malabar cooking is the lunch treat, with Thalassery style biryani, ghee rice and soft pathiri, and unnakkaya as a snack for children. Theyyam, the ritual dance of north Kerala, is staged between October and May in temples and family shrines, so ask locals about dates. Thalassery is about 22 km south if the family wants another town. The van waits for tomorrow's plan.
Need a Mysore to Kannur tempo traveller for 9 to 20 people for the beaches and the old fort?

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. 👍

One way to Kannur is near 190 km, so a return trip totals about 380 km. Our van passes Hunsur, Gonikoppal and Virajpet, takes the Makutta ghat into Kerala at Iritty and continues to the coast. A family with breaks needs roughly 4.5 to 5 hours.
Late night driving adds a night allowance for the driver. Night bata: ₹600 to ₹700, by size.
Yes, via HD Kote and Mananthavady. It is longer, and we tell you before the trip.
Yes, quoted when you ask. Share the date and group size and you get it in writing.
GST is extra, and so are tolls and parking. You get the receipts. Kannur: the Kerala entry permit is charged separately.
The 16 seater; bags get two spare seats. The full size list is on tempo traveller on rent in Mysore.
October to March. The roads are dry, the Makutta ghat is clear, and the theyyam season, October to May, is under way. April and May are hot and humid on the coast. In the monsoon the Virajpet to Kerala road has been closed in past years after slips, so we check before July trips.
It is a winding stretch of about half an hour between Virajpet and Iritty. Children who get car sick should eat lightly at Hunsur, sit by a window in the front rows and look ahead. We stop at Virajpet just before the ghat and at Iritty right after it, so the bends are broken up.
