Early pickup
The car reaches your door at five for a long day of about 545 km. 11.5 to 12 hours of driving means we leave in the dark and arrive by late afternoon. Buy a box of Mysore pak, the ghee rich gram flour sweet, the evening before; it keeps well and is a fine thing to share on the road. The cab leaves on the expressway towards Maddur. Keep pillows and a shawl in the back seat so passengers can sleep till breakfast.
Coffee halt
Maddur, roughly an hour from home, is the first coffee. The expressway now bypasses the town, so the car uses the exit to reach the vada shops in the old town. Ten minutes only, enough for a vada each and a coffee before getting back in the car. Near the highway at Shivapura stands a memorial hall for the 1938 flag satyagraha, visible as you pass. After the snack the driver heads up the Kunigal road, State Highway 33, which leads to Tumakuru.
Breakfast
Tumkur (Tumakuru), about 150 km out, is breakfast. A family of four is done in twenty minutes at a highway hotel. Here the cab joins NH48, the main highway north, which it follows for the next 130 km to Chitradurga. The district is called Kalpataru Nadu after its coconut palms, and you see groves on both sides. If anyone wants a temple on another trip, Araluguppe's Hoysala Chennakeshava temple is about 25 km from the city.
Tea if needed
Sira is a taluk town on NH48, about 50 km past Tumakuru. In the early 1700s it was the seat of the Mughal Sira Subah, and the ruins of its fort and the Malik Rihan dargah are in the town. For a car this is a short tea or washroom halt, ten minutes at most. Hiriyur comes up about 35 to 40 km later on the same highway, and then Chitradurga, where lunch is planned.
Lunch
Chitradurga, about 280 km from Mysore and roughly half way, is the lunch halt. Forty minutes for lunch and rest. The fort, with seven walls of stone, is right in town, but on this long day only a look from the road fits. Note the wind farms on the hills as you come in. Here the cab leaves NH48 and takes NH50 north east towards Kudligi and Hosapete, about 125 km. Fill the tank before leaving.
Tea
Kudligi is a small town on NH50, about 80 km after Chitradurga. Stop ten minutes for tea and a stretch. The taluk is known for its tamarind and has the Gudekote sloth bear sanctuary, which is off our road. The town sits at about 596 m, a little lower than the plateau behind you. After Kudligi the road passes Mariyammanahalli and reaches Hosapete in about 45 km. The driver checks the tyres and water here before the evening stretch.
Tea and fuel
Hosapete, some 415 km from home, runs Vijayanagara district from the Tungabhadra bank. Stop ten minutes for tea and a fuel top up. Hampi's ruins are only 13 km away, too much of a detour today; keep them for the return if you have a spare day. The big stone dam on the Tungabhadra is next to the town. From Hosapete NH50 continues north through Kushtagi and Ilkal towards Hungund, about 110 km.
Last halt
Hungund is the last taluk town before the river, about 525 km from Mysore. A ten minute restroom break here. Ilkal, which the cab passed 12 km back, is famous for Ilkal saris and red granite. Amingad nearby is known for karadantu, a rich sweet of dry fruit and jaggery; buy some if you see it. Kudalasangama is only about 20 km from Hungund, so you will be there soon.
Drop near the shrine
About 11.5 to 12 hours of driving after Mysore, the cab drops you near the shrine at the meeting of the Krishna and the Malaprabha. The driver waits while you visit. Simple meals are available near the temple, so carry snacks for the evening. Rooms are limited, so book ahead if you stay the night. The river front is calm and quiet at dusk, a good end to a long day. Tell us the night before if you want the car early for the return.

We (15 families) hired a bus from Tejas to one of the resort at Kanakpura. Interacted with Lakshmi madam and requested her to provide a good Cab . The bus reached at exact time for pickup, the bus was extremely good and looked a new one only. Thanks Tejas team and Lakshmi madam, it was a wonderful experience and I would definitely recommend to avail their services.

The river meeting lies about 545 km from Mysore, near 1,090 km for a there and back trip. A car heads up by Maddur and Tumkur (Tumakuru), keeps to NH48 until Chitradurga, then switches to NH50 by Kudligi, Hosapete and Hungund. It adds up to roughly ten hours at the wheel, meals included.
The Innova Crysta. Every size is listed on cab rental in Mysore.
A late night return adds the driver night allowance. It is shown in the quote. Rate card figure: ₹400 a night.
Yes, on request. We quote one way drops in writing once we have your date.
No, they are separate. Tolls, parking, permits and GST are added at actual cost.
Yes. Bijapur is about 80 km further. Add a day to the trip.
North Karnataka gets hot from March to May, and the drive beyond Chitradurga crosses dry country. Chitradurga itself gets only about 576 mm of rain a year. October to March is the comfortable season, with cooler mornings for the river front. In summer, start very early and keep the AC on through the afternoon stretch.
It is long, so we break it well: coffee at Maddur, breakfast at Tumakuru, lunch at Chitradurga and three short tea halts after that. Elders can stretch at each stop. If you prefer, we split the trip with a night at Chitradurga or Hosapete; tell us at booking so we plan the driver's rest.
