One gate for the bus
A coach of forty or fifty boards at one gate at 5:30 am, somewhere with room to turn a bus, such as a college ground. Big bags go into the hold first, and a coordinator stands at the door with the name list. Once out on the Hunsur road the start is easy, since NH275 is a four lane road as far as Bilikere. Moodabidri is about 260 km away, roughly six and a half hours with halts for a large group, so we leave on the dot.

Tea for forty
Hunsur grew up as a timber town known for its teak, and today tobacco fields surround it. For our coach it is a tea halt, because breakfast comes later in Madikeri. Highway hotels here are used to coach parties, and twenty five minutes is enough for forty people to drink tea and get through the toilets. The coordinator counts everyone back aboard. From Hunsur the road runs on through Periyapatna towards the Coorg hills.

Breakfast and diesel
Madikeri, the Coorg capital at about 1,170 m, is the breakfast halt for the coach. A hotel with bus parking can serve forty people idli, dosa and coffee in about forty minutes, while the driver fills diesel for the descent. Some groups ask about Mandalpatti viewpoint, 30 to 35 km away, but its last stretch needs hired jeeps, so it is not for a coach. Once the group is aboard, the Sampaje ghat begins.

Drive through
Sullia sits at the foot of the long ghat from Madikeri, surrounded by areca and rubber estates, and the coach drives through without a halt. The Sampaje stretch above had landslides in August 2018, and in red rain alerts the Kodagu administration has kept heavy vehicles off its ghat roads, so monsoon trips are confirmed the day before. From Sullia, Puttur is 30 km on and Moodabidri about 90 km.

Restroom halt
Puttur's bazaar is packed with arecanut traders, so the coach stops on a wider stretch of road, not in the market. Fifteen minutes is set for restrooms, water and a stretch. The Mahalingeshwara temple stands in the middle of town, a short walk, but with forty people the clock matters and lunch is next. The coordinator checks every seat before the coach rolls on towards BC Road, 30 km ahead.

Lunch for the group
BC Road, the busy junction next to Bantwal on the Netravati, is where the coach group has lunch. Bantwal is the taluk town of this part of Dakshina Kannada. A highway hotel with bus parking can serve forty people neer dosa, goli baje or plain meals in about forty five minutes if the orders are kept simple. The Moodabidri road branches off near the junction, and the town is roughly half an hour away.

Group drop
The coach drops the group in Moodabidri, a town on NH169 about 34 km north east of Mangalore. College groups usually head to the Alva's campus at Vidyagiri, where there is room for a coach. Plain vegetarian food is easy to find all over town. The rains here are very heavy in July, so dry season trips work best. Mangalore airport and the city are under an hour away for anyone leaving early.

Sure. Share the date and group size and you get it in writing.
Yes. Via Hassan and Shiradi it is a little longer. We pick the road that is open and safer on your date.

Driving late at night means a night allowance for the driver. The quote lists it. Our card says ₹700 to ₹1,000, by size per night.
October to March, when the roads are dry and the Sampaje ghat is clear for buses. The town is very wet from June to September. Alva's Nudisiri and Virasat, the yearly cultural meets, bring large crowds; good for a college group that wants to attend, but book rooms early.
Moodabidri has hotels and college guest houses for groups, and Mangalore, 34 km away, has more choice with bus parking. The bus parks at the hotel overnight, and the driver rests nearby. The next morning is free for Karkala or Venur within the km plan.
