Group pickup
The coach leaves at 6 am from your college, office or hotel in Mysuru, with 26 to 50 seats. It takes the outer ring road, NH 275K, round the city, so a full coach reaches the Nanjangud highway without crossing the centre. Suitcases go in the hold. Kollam is 545 km away by Wayanad, Kozhikode and the coast, about thirteen and a half hours of driving, with a night halt at Thrissur.

Tea and fuel
Gundlupet, 60 km south, is the coach's tea and diesel stop. In this town the Ooty highway, NH 181, peels away to the left, while our route, NH 766, keeps straight on for Sulthan Bathery and Kozhikode. Forty people need a while at the small tea stalls, so the leader should hold the halt to fifteen minutes and count heads before the doors close. Inside the forest that follows, the coach may not stop.

Breakfast
The coach breakfasts in Sulthan Bathery, 115 km out. As Wayanad's busiest transport hub, the town copes easily with big vehicles, and travellers coming up from Karnataka are advised to eat here, because Gundlupet offers so little. Shortly before town the highway crosses the Muthanga range of the Wayanad Wildlife Sanctuary, so passengers may already have spotted deer. Thirty minutes covers breakfast and the head count for forty. Water bottles are refilled here too.

Ghat descent
The coach reaches the plain at Thamarassery, 180 km from Mysore, after the Wayanad churam. Coconut palms and rubber trees surround the town. Should the ghat ever be blocked, the recognised detour runs by Kuttiady, and our office watches the road reports before the coach leaves Bathery. Today the bus simply rolls through. Kozhikode, with lunch booked for the group, is about 30 km further on. Everyone stays seated through the town.

Group lunch
Kozhikode, 210 km along, is the coach's lunch halt. At the southern tip of the city's beach road lies Beypore, the old port where wooden uru boats were once built. Kozhikode's railway station ranks among the busiest in South India, handy if a member joins the tour by train. Our office books a restaurant that can park a coach. Thrissur and the night halt are about 120 km south. The coach waits in the restaurant's own yard.

Night halt
The coach spends the night at Thrissur, 330 km from Mysore. At the city's heart the Vadakkumnathan temple is a protected National Monument, decorated with Mahabharata murals and wood carving; the whole town lies barely 3 m above the sea and relies on canals to drain the monsoon rain. Our office books a hotel with coach parking and dinner for the group. Day two covers about 215 km to Kollam.

Drive through
On day two the coach passes Kochi, 405 km out. Cochin International Airport, close to Angamaly on NH544, was the world's first airport to run entirely on solar power, and it is the easiest drop point if any member must fly home early. The coach keeps to the highway, well clear of the old island lanes, and turns south onto NH66. Alleppey and the tea halt are about 55 km away.

Tea halt
At Alleppey, 460 km from Mysore, the coach stops for tea. South of here NH66 threads through one small town after another; Kayamkulam alone lies about 45 km down the road, so progress is steady rather than quick. Twenty minutes gives forty people time for tea and the restrooms, and the leader counts heads at the door. Kollam is about 85 km further south. Seats stay as allotted for the last stretch, which keeps boarding quick.

Coach drop
The coach reaches Kollam after about thirteen and a half hours of driving spread over two days. Thiruvananthapuram is about 71 km beyond, and Kayamkulam lies about 40 km back up NH66. The bus pulls up at the hotel if the entrance allows, or at the nearest point where a coach can stand. This old port city keeps one of the early St Thomas churches and one of the coast's oldest mosques.

Road distance from Mysore to Kollam is close to 545 km through Wayanad, the Kozhikode coast and central Kerala; a return booking means roughly 1,090 km. Because a loaded coach spends around thirteen and a half hours at the wheel, we stop overnight in Thrissur. The Bandipur and Muthanga forest beyond Gundlupet is closed from 9 pm until 6 am.
To Kollam: below 35, a 33 or 35 seater; around 40, the 40 seater; 45 to 50, a 45, 49 or 50 seater. See the sizes on bus on rent in Mysore.
No. Tolls, parking, permits and GST are added at actual cost.
Yes, past 10 pm a night allowance goes on the bill. Plan the start time and it rarely comes up. On our Mysore card that is ₹700 to ₹1,000, by size a night.
Yes, by day. Buses use it daily; we avoid peak traffic hours.
Yes, quoted when you ask. Tell us the date and where to pick up; the quote comes in writing.
Pick December, January or February for the most comfortable coach trip, when Wayanad mornings are crisp and the coast is dry. Monsoon rain from June to September makes the churam slow and slippery. The pre monsoon months feel steamy on the plain. Onam brings holiday crowds around Alleppey, so leave spare time then.
Keep drinking water, a snack and personal medicines on your seat, because the Thamarassery churam sometimes stalls and the luggage bay stays shut at halts. Suitcases ride below until Kollam. Each traveller packs a compact bag for the Thrissur night. Tagging every case with a name speeds up unloading at the hotel.
