Pickup for the group
The mini bus collects the group of 14 to 25 at 6 am from a school, office or temple meeting point in Mysuru. Our drivers speak Kannada, the main language of the city, and manage Malayalam in Kerala, which helps groups from the north where Hindi is not widely understood. We take the Nanjangud highway out. Kollam is 545 km away by Wayanad and the coast, so the group sleeps a night at Thrissur.
Tea and fuel
Gundlupet, sixty km on, is a short halt for tea while the tank is topped up. If your trip lands in late August or September, you will see lorries being loaded with marigolds for the Onam markets of Kerala, the very state the group is bound for. Keep it to fifteen minutes and do the roll call. Everybody visits the toilets, since the 25 km of forest ahead allow the mini bus no stop whatever.
Breakfast
The group breakfasts in Sulthan Bathery, 115 km out. Students enjoy the story of the name; Tipu Sultan's soldiers kept their ammunition here, and the place became Sultan's Battery. A short drive away at Ambalavayal, the Wayanad Heritage Museum would suit a school party on a slower trip. Half an hour covers breakfast and the roll call for twenty. Kalpetta comes about 25 km later, then the long descent. Water bottles are refilled here.
Ghat descent
Thamarassery, 180 km from Mysore, marks the bottom of the churam the mini bus has just come down. Kerala's very first rubber estate was planted near this town, and local lore says the pass itself was found with help from a tribal chief named Karinthandan, opening a route for spices to reach the port of Beypore. We drive through without halting. Kozhikode and lunch lie about 30 km on. Seat belts on for the bends.
Lunch
Lunch for the group is in Kozhikode, 210 km along. History teachers will point out that Vasco da Gama landed near here on 20 May 1498, and the city's long seafront road runs from Beypore in the south to Kappad in the north, an easy story for students to follow from the window. Forty five minutes covers lunch and the roll call. Thrissur and the night halt are about 120 km south.
Night halt
Thrissur, 330 km out, is where the group sleeps. The city's bazaars are famous for silk and gold, so anybody shopping for a family wedding may want an evening in the market while the others rest. We book a hotel with room to park the mini bus, and dinner is served there. Tomorrow's leg to Kollam is about 215 km, so we leave soon after breakfast. An early night suits everyone.
Drive through
The mini bus skirts Kochi, 405 km from Mysore, on the second morning. Up at Aluva, on the city's northern edge, the Sivarathri festival gathers huge crowds on the sandbanks of the Periyar, and the roads there seize up on that date, so our office checks it against your plan. Otherwise the driver holds to the main highway and joins NH66 heading south. Alleppey is roughly an hour away, about 55 km.
Tea halt
Tea on day two is at Alleppey, 460 km from home. Students looking out of the window are passing the edge of Kuttanad, where farmers grow rice 4 to 10 ft below sea level, a system recognised by the FAO in 2013 as a world agricultural heritage system. Twenty minutes covers tea and the roll call. Kollam is about 85 km further down the coast road. Restrooms are at the tea shop.
Drop at the stay
The mini bus reaches Kollam after about twelve hours of driving over two days. We take the group to its hotel; where a lane is too narrow, we stop on the main road and the bags are carried the short distance. Two outings suit a group from here, Varkala's beach about 29 to 30 km south, and the forest resort of Thenmala about 66 km inland. Dinner is served at the hotel tonight.

Kollam is about 545 km from Mysore, about 1,090 km for the round trip. The mini bus runs through Gundlupet and Sulthan Bathery, down the Thamarassery churam to Kozhikode, along the coast to Thrissur for the night, then via Kochi and Alleppey on NH66. Driving time is about twelve hours over two days. The forest beyond Gundlupet closes at night.
Yes. Kochi is a good night halt; Kollam is three hours on.
If the Kollam mini bus runs past 10 pm, the night bata is ₹600 to ₹700 a night, by size.
A one way drop to Kollam is quoted when you ask, ₹2 a km above the return rate.
On the 545 km road to Kollam, tolls, parking, permits and GST are added at actuals.
Kollam groups up to 16 fit in the 16 seater, about 20, the 20 seater, 22 to 25 the 22 or 25 seater. Every size is on our mini bus on rent in Mysore page.
Yes. From 3 June 2026, multi axle trucks, containers, tankers and trailers are barred from the churam between 6 am and 8 pm while hairpins 6, 7 and 8 are widened. The mini bus is allowed, and daytime traffic is lighter, but trucks crowd the ghat at night. The named alternative is the Kuttiady route, which we use if the churam is blocked.
Well, with planning. Each day has about 12 hours of driving with halts every hour or two, and the night at Thrissur breaks the trip. Children should carry water and a snack for the churam, where traffic can stop, and use restrooms before the forest near Gundlupet. Seat smaller ones at windows.
