Pickup at your door
Doorstep pickup is at 5 am, from a house, a palace area hotel, the station forecourt or the Mandakalli airport gate. Kurnool is about 505 km off, one long day by car, so an early start lets you arrive before dark. Mysore silk sarees, sandalwood carvings and incense make good gifts for hosts in Kurnool; the Government Sandalwood Oil Factory in Ashokapuram sells them, but shop the day before, since nothing opens at dawn. Breakfast comes at Maddur, a little over an hour away on the expressway.
Breakfast
Breakfast is at Maddur, 65 km from Mysore, where the flat, crisp Maddur vada comes straight from the pan. The driver leaves the expressway for the old road, because the main carriageway skips the town. Between October and March, painted storks nest at Kokkarebellur, about 12 km off, so keep it in mind for a weekend from Mysore. For now, fifteen minutes and back on the road. Bangalore is about 85 km ahead, and the aim is to get round it before the office rush.
Ring road bypass
The cab does not enter Bangalore, about 150 km out. From the end of the expressway it swings north on NICE Road to Tumkur Road, then takes the Satellite Town Ring Road from Dobbaspet through Doddaballapur to Devanahalli, where it joins NH44. The Dobbaspet section has a toll at Hulikunte, paid by FASTag like every highway toll on this trip. This loop is longer in km but far quicker than the city. Kurnool is still about 355 km away, all on the highway after this.
Tea
Chikkaballapur is about 210 km into the drive and the first tea break after the city. The Skandagiri trek starts close to town, a popular night climb for young groups, and Muddenahalli, birthplace of Sir M. Visvesvaraya, is just outside. Neither fits today. Ten minutes for tea and the restroom, then on. From here NH44 runs north to the Andhra border, and the cab keeps a steady pace on the wide road.
Short halt
Penukonda is about 285 km from Mysore. The Babayya Dargah, the tomb of a 12th century Sufi saint, is revered by Hindus and Muslims alike and stands in the town. Devotees of Sathya Sai Baba sometimes plan Puttaparthi, roughly 36 km off, as a separate day. A cab can stop for ten minutes for a stretch and a photo of the fort wall by the road. Lunch is better at Anantapur, about 75 km on, where there are more highway hotels.
Lunch
Lunch is at Anantapur, about 360 km from Mysore. Rayalaseema plates are hot; uggani with mirchi bajji is the common snack if anyone wants something light instead of a full meal. Dharmavaram, south west of the city, weaves the GI tagged pattu sarees, worth a separate shopping trip. This is the driest district of Andhra Pradesh, so the afternoon is hot; keep water in the car. Half an hour is enough, and Gooty is about 50 km ahead.
Tea
Murari Rao's seat, a small pavilion on a cliff about 300 m high, looks down on Gooty from the fort. The cab reaches the town about 410 km out. The highway west to Guntakal and Bellary branches off here, so lorries crowd the junction; the driver picks a tea stall a little beyond it. Ten minutes is plenty. Kurnool is about 95 km on, roughly an hour and a half on the four lane road.
Drive on
Dhone, once called Dronachalam, is a municipality on NH44, about 455 km from Mysore. A hill in the town has a Hanuman temple, a dargah and a church side by side, which you can see from the bypass. A cab rarely stops here; with only about 50 km left to Kurnool, it is better to finish the drive and rest. If someone needs a restroom, the fuel stations on the bypass are the quickest option.
Hotel drop
The cab reaches Kurnool after about 10.5 to 11 hours with stops. Sitting on the Tungabhadra, the city served as Andhra State's capital between 1953 and 1956. The driver drops you at your hotel, and if daylight is left, a visit to Jagannatha Gattu makes a pleasant first evening. For dinner, Andhra meals are easy to find near the bus stand road. Kurnool is called the gateway of Rayalaseema, and the next morning can start your sightseeing day.
Looking for a Mysore to Kurnool taxi for four to seven people on the Bangalore road? This page has the Mysore to Kurnool Cab route, the stops on the way and the fare per car. The cab comes for you at the city bus stand or hotels near Chamundi Hills road. Any address in Mysuru works for pickup. Four travellers take a Dzire or Etios; six or seven take an Innova Crysta. Each size and rate is on cab rental in Mysore; we have run it since 2009.

The cab covers about 1,010 km out and back, billed 4 days and 1,200 km. Air conditioned, always. The driver allowance is ₹400 per day; tolls, parking, permits and GST are extra at actuals.

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.

Kurnool is about 505 km from Mysore, so the round trip is about 1,010 km. The cab takes the expressway to Maddur, goes round Bangalore on the ring roads and then follows NH44 through Chikkaballapur, Penukonda, Anantapur, Gooty and Dhone. It is about 10.5 to 11 hours of driving with stops, one long day in a car.
An Innova Crysta carries six and their bags to Kurnool. On this trip it is ₹24,000 for 1,200 km at ₹20/km, and ₹1,600 allowance for the driver. Every car we run is on cab rental in Mysore.
Yes. Ask for a Mysore to Kurnool one way cab quote with your date; you get the km and fare in writing.
No, they are separate. GST, tolls, parking and any permit are charged at actual.
The driver gets a night allowance when the drive goes late into the night. Night bata: ₹400.
Start around 5:00 am and the long Kurnool drive ends before dark. A car moves faster than the bigger vehicles, so there is time to wait for a late riser.
Yes, from March to May. Anantapur district is the driest part of Andhra Pradesh, with only about 508 mm of rain a year, and the plateau around Gooty and Dhone has little shade. The cab leaves Mysore at 5 am, so the longest stretch is done with the AC on during the hottest hours. Carry water, caps and light cotton clothes.
A sedan takes two medium suitcases and two small bags in the boot. For four people on a week long trip, an Innova or Ertiga is better, with the last row folded for bags. Keep snacks, water and medicines in the cabin. If you plan to buy Dharmavaram sarees or Mysore gifts, leave space for them.
