Coach pickup
We send the bus to one wide road in Saraswathipuram or Jayalakshmipuram, where it can stand without blocking traffic, and the group boards at 5 am. On Vijayadashami, heavy vehicles have been barred from the main roads into Mysore from 6 am to midnight, so a start on that day needs a pickup on the ring road. Suitcases go in the hold. One coordinator with the passenger list saves time at every stop. Kurnool, the first night, is about 505 km away.

Bypass and breakfast
A full size bus keeps out of central Bangalore, about 145 km from Mysore. From Kengeri it takes NICE Road to Tumkur Road, then the satellite ring road by Dobbaspet and Doddaballapur, paying the Hulikunte toll, and reaches NH44 near Devanahalli. The Nallur toll on that ring road has no booths; cameras read the number plate. Breakfast for fifty is at a highway hotel with a yard, booked ahead with the plate count. Forty minutes.

Tea
Penukonda, about 280 km from Mysore, is a twenty minute tea halt for the coach on the highway side. The old fort town was a Vijayanagara stronghold, and an 11 ft Hanuman stands at the Yerramanchi gate, the main entrance. Jain pilgrims know Penukonda for its long Jain history and the Ajitnath temple. The bus does not enter the narrow town lanes. A head count, then about 75 km to Anantapur.

Lunch and diesel
On day one the bus eats and takes diesel at Anantapur, about 355 km from Mysore. The Sports Village beside the highway marks the stretch where coach friendly hotels are found. Allow an hour, since fifty people eat in two rounds. The classic meal of Rayalaseema is ragi sangati with country chicken curry, with vegetarian meals for the rest. From here Gooty is about 52 km and Kurnool about 150 km on NH44.

Night halt
Day one ends at Kurnool, the gateway of Rayalaseema, about 505 km from Mysore. Book beds for fifty early at a hotel with a yard. A set dinner is fastest for a big group. Tomorrow morning the bus crosses the Krishna at Beechupally, in Telangana, where there is an Anjaneya temple by the river, a good place for a short morning halt. Day two runs about 385 km to Nizamabad.

Breakfast
Breakfast for the coach is at Jadcherla, about 615 km out, on NH44 about 110 km north of Kurnool and some 86 km short of Hyderabad. The plates for fifty are ordered by phone from the road, and the driver parks in a hotel yard off the highway. While the second batch eats, the 12th century Chennakeshava temple near the highway is a short look for the first. Forty minutes and a head count, then the drive to the Hyderabad ring road.

Tea on the ring road
A bus does not cross Hyderabad, about 715 km from Mysore. From Shamshabad it follows the Outer Ring Road round to the Nizamabad highway. The tea halt is at a highway place with a large yard. The Charminar, built in 1591, is the symbol of the city, but the old city lanes are no place for a coach; groups see it on a separate local day. Kamareddy and lunch are about 120 km on.

Lunch
The coach stops for lunch at Kamareddy, 835 km out, the headquarters of a district on NH44 and about 55 km short of Nizamabad. The driver books a hotel with a large yard so the bus stays off the road, and the coordinator phones the plate count from Hyderabad. Fifty people eat in two rounds, so allow an hour. Refill the water cans. Do a head count before leaving; the night halt is close.

Night halt
The bus reaches Nizamabad, about 890 km from Mysore, in the afternoon, and stops for the night of day two. Pick a hotel with bus parking. The town, once called Induru, is known for its big turmeric market, a quick evening look for those who want it. Dinner is Telangana meals for the group. One count of people before the bus moves next morning; Karanja is about 295 km on.

Breakfast
Breakfast for the bus is at Nanded, about 1,000 km from Mysore. The Hazur Sahib gurdwara, one of the five takhts of Sikhism, stands on the Godavari, and its langar can feed a full bus; the coordinator calls everyone back after the set time. Heads are covered inside. The city is split by the river into Old Nanded to the north and New Nanded to the south. An hour, then about 125 km to Washim.

Lunch
Lunch for the coach is at Washim, about 1,125 km from Mysore and some 60 km short of Karanja. Restaurants in the town are small, so the lunch for fifty is booked ahead and served in two rounds over an hour. Among the town's sights are the Balaji temple, two Jain temples and the Padmatirtha tank, a short walk for those who finish early. Count heads before leaving; the last stretch is a district road, slower for a full size bus.

Arrival
The coach arrives in Karanja around midday on day three, after about 29.5 hours of driving from Mysore. For a coach, the spot is the town parking near the temples, and the group walks from there. Karanja is holy to Hindus, Jains and Muslims, so dharamshalas fill with pilgrim groups; book rooms for fifty well ahead. Meals here are a Maharashtrian thali or poha. A last head count ends the drive.

Cancellation: no charge more than 72 hours before pickup; see the cancellation policy for the rest.
Karanja Jain Mutt is about 1,185 km from Mysore, so a bus covers about 2,370 km up and back. The route goes round Bangalore to NH44, through Penukonda, Anantapur, Kurnool, round Hyderabad on the ring road, then Kamareddy, Nizamabad, Nanded and Washim. A full size bus needs about 29.5 hours of driving with stops, over three days with nights at Kurnool and Nizamabad.
Yes. Shirpur Antariksh Parshwanath is near Washim, on the way.
Only if the driver drives late at night; then a night allowance is added. You see it in the quote first. ₹700 to ₹1,000, by size a night is the bus rate.
No. Bus tolls to Karanja are higher than car tolls, so they are shown separately with GST and parking. Add the Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Maharashtra entry permits for the bus, billed at cost.
The 49 or 50 seater gives a seat to all and a few spare. Compare sizes on bus on rent in Mysore.
Yes, one way on request. Karanja: the empty return is part of the quote, which you get on paper first.
Hardly on day one. Around Anantapur a normal year brings only some 508 mm of rain, the lowest in the state, so the run to Kurnool is seldom wet for long. In the monsoon months the driver slows down on wet stretches further north, and we keep spare time on day three. Rain covers for the luggage and an umbrella each are all a group needs.
It works well when the group plans for it. The longest day is the first, about 505 km to Kurnool; after that come 385 and 295 km, with a hotel bed each night. Give the front rows to grandparents, keep young children with their parents, and pack medicines, snacks and a light shawl in hand bags rather than the hold. Washrooms come at every planned halt.
