Pickup
Elders step in easily through the Urbania's wide door when it reaches your gate in Mysuru at 6. The hill is about 205 km away, about four hours with two halts. If you return to Mysore on a Sunday or a holiday evening, the palace lights come on at 7, so the driver can drop you near the palace if time allows. Shawls and a picnic bag fit in the back. The van joins the expressway north without crossing the city centre.
Tea
Sugar built Mandya, 45 km along, and the old MySugar factory of 1933 still stands in the town. The Urbania can stop for fifteen minutes so elders take tea or a cup of cane juice and use the restroom. Many like to buy jaggery here, sold in dark blocks from village units. In October, the wettest month in these parts, keep umbrellas inside the van. The next halt is breakfast, about an hour further on.
Breakfast
At Ramanagara, about 95 km into the drive, the Urbania pulls into a highway hotel with parking close to the door, which keeps the walk short for elders. Thirty minutes allows a relaxed breakfast. Each morning trucks bring in huge loads of silk cocoons to the market here, and the rocky skyline is where the film Sholay was shot in 1975. After breakfast the van leaves the expressway side and heads for the ring road round the city.
Ring road
The Urbania avoids the city centre altogether by taking NICE Road from its junction with the Mysore road near Kengeri. This tolled road curves round the south west past the Magadi Road side and ends on Tumkur Road, a calm, signal free run that suits elders. There is nothing to stop for on it. The toll goes on the bill at cost. After it, the van crosses the northern suburbs to reach the airport highway.
Drive through
The old town of Yelahanka, about 165 km from Mysore, keeps a Venugopala Swamy temple from Kempegowda's time and a lane still called Kote Beedi, Fort Street. Doddaballapur Road divides it into Old and New Town. The Urbania meets NH44 here and climbs onto the elevated airport road, so there are no signals for the next stretch. No halt is planned; the next one is a tea stop at Devanahalli, roughly twenty minutes on.
Tea and restroom
Devanahalli, about 185 km out, lies about 5 km from the airport and has the first toll of NH44 on this side, the Devanahalli plaza. Twenty minutes for tea and a clean restroom suits elders before the hill road. Tipu Sultan was born in this town. Chikkaballapur lies about 20 km further up the highway, but the Urbania leaves it at Karahalli Cross, about 10 km on, for the climb.
Hill top
Hairpin bends start soon after Karahalli Cross, and the Urbania climbs them gently; seat elders in front if they feel the turns. At the Sultanpet base gate each visitor pays an entry fee and the van pays for parking. Weekend parking at the top fills early, and then vehicles wait below, so a weekday suits elders better. Small canteens on the hill sell tea and snacks. The gates are commonly listed open from 6 am.

Mysore to Pondicherry
We recently completed our Pondicherry trip with Tejas Tours and Travel Company, and overall we had a very good experience. Shashikala coordinated with us from enquiry to booking and throughout the trip. She was well-communicated, supportive, and checked in with us daily to ensure everything was fine.

It is roughly 205 km each way, about 410 km in all. The Urbania runs on the expressway to Ramanagara, round the city on NICE Road, and up NH44 past Devanahalli before the hairpin road to the top. With breakfast and a tea halt, allow about 4.5 to 5 hours.
Yes, quoted when you ask. Give us the date and head count, and the one way fare comes back in writing.
For 8 or 9 people, the 10 seater. For 10 to 13, the 12 or 13 seater. Nandi Hills with sixteen: the 16 seater. See every size on Force Urbania on rent in Mysore.
No. Toll and parking receipts are added at actual, and GST goes on the final bill.
Not much in the Urbania. Seat older people in front if they feel the bends.
A night bata applies when driving goes past 10 pm; we show it on the quote. The Urbania night bata is ₹700.
Only now and then. In the cool season, from late November into February, a thick early morning mist can settle over the airport belt near Devanahalli. With a 6 am start from Mysore, the Urbania usually gets there after it clears, but on a misty day the driver eases off and the run takes a little longer.
Yes. A start around 1 am reaches the base gate before 6 am, when the hill commonly opens. Sunrise is the busiest time, so expect a queue at the gate on weekends. Passengers can doze on the reclining seats, and the driver rests during the day at the hill.
