Pickup at your door
Twelve people climb into the van at 5 am, at your house, a hotel or the suburban bus stand, and the bags are stacked behind the last row. If cousins from north India are joining, warn them that Mysore runs on Kannada and few people outside the tourist places follow Hindi; across the border it will be Tamil, so let the driver handle directions. The tempo traveller turns off the Nanjangud road for Chamarajanagar. Mannargudi lies about 440 km away, one long but steady day.
Breakfast
Chamarajanagar, sixty km from home, is breakfast, half an hour for the twelve of you in a tiffin room near the bus stand. While the coffee comes, look for the gopura in the middle of town: Krishnaraja Wodeyar III started the Chamarajeshwara temple in 1825 in his father's memory. Send everyone to the restroom before boarding, since there is no clean stop in the forest or on the ghat. The driver tops up diesel at the same time.
Tea after the ghat
Once off the ghat, the van stops in Sathyamangalam, 140 km out, for fifteen minutes of tea. The town grew on the Bhavani, and the wet fields on both banks are green most of the year. West of town, about 16 km away, an earthen dam about 40 m high, opened in 1956, holds the Bhavanisagar reservoir, a good picnic for another holiday. From here on the land is flat, so the children can sleep until lunch.
Tea and restroom
The van makes a quarter hour stop at Erode, 205 km from Mysore, near the highway. Erode's handloom and knitwear mills supply shops across the south, so towels and bed covers here are cheap. Birdwatchers can remember the Vellode sanctuary on the edge of the city, and the house of Periyar is a memorial inside it, both for a slower trip. Dosa and idli are quick snacks for the children. Lunch waits at Karur, about 65 km on.
Lunch
Lunch is at Karur, 270 km out, forty five minutes for the family at a highway hotel. The town sits near three rivers, the Amaravathi, the Kaveri and the Noyyal, though the Amaravathi bed is mostly sand in the dry months. Children like spotting the half built bus bodies in the yards, since Karur builds coaches for much of India. After the meal the van follows the Kaveri valley east towards Trichy, about 80 km away.
Tea
The family stops for tea at Trichy, 350 km out. Right in the city a single rock rises about 83 m, the Rockfort, with the Thayumanavar temple partway up and the Ucchi Pillayar shrine on the summit; climbing it is a job for the return. If anyone likes rivers and old waterworks, Mukkombu, the Upper Anicut, is about 15 km from Trichy junction. Fifteen minutes here is enough. Thanjavur comes about 55 km later.
Tea or drive through
Thanjavur, 405 km out, is a quick optional halt if the children are restless; otherwise the van keeps going. Kids love the thalaiyatti bommai, the Thanjavur doll whose head keeps nodding, sold in the craft shops. Musicians in the family may notice the town also makes the veena and the tambura. In October the town celebrates Sathaya Thiruvizha, the birthday of Raja Raja Chola, so traffic is heavier. From here Mannargudi is about 35 km, well under an hour.
Temple town drop
After about 10 to 10.5 hours on the road the van pulls into Mannargudi and drops the family near the temple at its stay. The town makes a good base: Thanjavur is about 40 km off and Kumbakonam about 36 km, both easy day trips in the same van. Plan around the temple calendar; the float festival falls in Aani, June to July, and the car festival in Aadi, July to August, when the streets are full and rooms are scarce.

Mysore to Shirdi
I had an excellent experience with Tejas Travel. The vehicle was clean, comfortable, and very well maintained. The driver was polite, punctual, and knew the routes perfectly, which made our trip smooth and enjoyable. Their service was professional from start to finish, and the pricing was also very reasonable. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable travel vehicle services. 👍

From Mysore, the Rajagopalaswamy temple town is roughly 440 km away by road, which makes close to 880 km there and back. The family van gets through the forest and the Dhimbam bends early, crosses the plains for lunch at Karur, and then runs past Trichy and Thanjavur into the delta. The whole drive is about 10 to 10.5 hours with halts, done in a single day.
November to February, after the monsoon fills the tank.
The 16 seater; two seats stay free for bags. Every size is listed on tempo traveller on rent in Mysore.
If the return runs late at night, the driver gets a night allowance. The quote lists it. The tempo traveller night bata is ₹600 to ₹700, by size.
Yes, on request. Send the date and pickup point, and the one way quote comes in writing.
GST is extra, and so are tolls and parking. The Tamil Nadu entry permit is charged separately. You get the receipts.
Mannargudi gets about 940 mm of rain a year, mostly from the northeast monsoon, and the delta around Thanjavur is wettest from October to January. Heavy showers slow the roads through the villages, though they stay open. We add an hour to the plan in those months. November to February, after the heaviest rain, is a pleasant time for a family trip.
Most children cope well if the stops are regular. The only long gap is just after breakfast, roughly two hours through the Hasanur forest and down the Dhimbam bends, so keep that meal light and give them a window seat. After Sathyamangalam we halt about every hour. A bag with snacks, water and spare clothes makes the day easy.
