Board at one gate
Fifty pilgrims board at one gate at four. Avoid the palace area for boarding in Dasara season; in 2023 to 2024 the palace drew about 112,000 visitors in the nine days of Dasara alone, and the roads round it fill up. Bags, water cans and a first aid box go in the hold. The trip has one night at Hungund. The bus leaves on the expressway for Maddur. One leader with the list of names stands at the door.
Tea
Maddur is the first tea halt, about 80 km out. The bus takes the exit to the old town, where bigger eateries have bus parking. Tea and Maddur vada for fifty take twenty minutes. Kokkarebellur, where painted storks and pelicans nest in village trees, is 12 km away, a stop for a winter trip another time. Then the bus turns north on State Highway 33. One leader phones ahead to Tumakuru so breakfast is ready on arrival.
Breakfast
Tumkur (Tumakuru) is breakfast for fifty, about 150 km out; keep forty minutes and order ahead from Maddur. The bus uses a highway hotel with a yard. Devarayanadurga, a forested hill with Narasimha temples, is about 15 km from the city, another idea for a shorter trip. After breakfast the bus joins NH48 north. The city is the place where NH73 to Mangaluru meets NH48, so traffic is heavy at the junctions, and the driver uses a hotel with an easy entry from the highway. Water cans are refilled before leaving.
Lunch
Chitradurga is lunch on day one, about 280 km from Mysore. The Nayakas ruled from the fort here until Hyder Ali took it in 1779. There is parking right outside near Gate 3 with basic toilets, if the group wants a short look. Order lunch for fifty in advance. After lunch the bus turns off NH48 onto NH50 towards Kudligi. Elders eat first, and the younger ones refill the water cans for the afternoon on NH50.
Tea
Kudligi is the afternoon tea halt on NH50. The taluk is tamarind country, and in the town there is a memorial at the Mahadeva Mylara ground where Gandhi's ashes were brought. Fifteen minutes and one head count. Hosapete is about 45 km on, past Mariyammanahalli. The road between Chitradurga and Kudligi crosses the dry country of Jagalur taluk, and the halt here breaks the hot afternoon. The driver checks the tyres and the radiator while the group has tea, and elders stay in the shade.
Tea and supplies
Hosapete is the tea and supply halt. The market is large, so the group can stock up on fruit and water before the evening run; the bus waits on a wider road. From Hosapete NH50 goes north to Kushtagi, about 65 km, then Ilkal and Hungund. Twenty minutes here. Hosapete is the gateway to Hampi, 13 km away, which the group may want to add on the return. Use the washrooms here, since the night halt is about two hours on and the road has few stops.
Night halt
Hungund is the night halt for the bus, about half way. Book rooms for fifty and a hotel with bus parking well ahead. Kudalasangama, the river meeting point, is near Hungund and could be a morning visit if the group starts early. Dinner for fifty should be ordered on the way. The driver rests overnight. Ilkal, 12 km south of Hungund, is famous for its saris, and Amingad near the town makes karadantu, a dry fruit sweet; the group can shop on the way home.
Breakfast
Vijayapura is breakfast on day two, forty minutes for fifty. The old Adil Shahi capital has the Chand Bawdi stepwell, the fort gates and the Jama Masjid among its sights, and Bidri ware is sold here, if anyone wants a gift. The bus then heads north across the border to Solapur, about 95 to 100 km. The famous Gol Gumbaz and Ibrahim Rauza are in the same city, a full day for another trip. Elders eat first.
Lunch
Solapur is the lunch halt on day two. It is a textile town, once home to Asia's largest spinning mills, with weaving that goes back to the Peshwa period. Forty five minutes for lunch. If the group prefers shorter days, Solapur is a common night halt on Shirdi trips; otherwise the bus continues by Mohol and Karmala, about 230 km to Shirdi. The group should use the washrooms here, as the next halt is about two and a half hours away.
Tea
Karmala is the afternoon tea halt. The Kamala Bhavani temple has 96 pillars, part of the number 96 that runs through its design. Twenty minutes, one head count. Ahmednagar is about 100 km on, so make sure everyone uses the washrooms. The temple was built in 1727 by Rao Raje Nimbalkar, and its well has 96 steps, so it makes a short and memorable darshan. The coach parks on the roadside while the leader keeps the group together, and elders can stay in the bus with water.
Evening halt
Ahmednagar is the evening halt. Rain is scarce here and the district often faces drought, so the land on the way is dry. Thirty minutes for tea or dinner. Nashik is about 160 km away via Sangamner if the group plans it later; Shirdi is about 85 km via Rahuri. Road signs may read Ahilyanagar, the new name. The British held Nehru and other leaders in its fort, which is partly a museum now. Elders should rest here before the final stretch.
Sansthan parking
About twenty six hours of driving over two days. The bus parks at the Sansthan parking. Darshan passes can be booked online with the Sansthan, and meals are served at the Sai Prasadalaya. Give the group one meeting point and one return time, as the temple area is crowded. The bus stays in Shirdi for the days you need. Elders can ask the Sansthan for help in the queue, and the leader keeps the list of names.

We had a great experience with this travel agent while arranging a bus for our team outing. The response was quick and professional, and all our requirements were handled smoothly. The bus arrived on time, was neat and clean, and the journey was very comfortable. Special thanks to Mahantesh, who was the coordinator and supported us with all last-minute changes. The overall coordination was excellent, which made our trip hassle-free. Highly recommended for group travel arrangement.

Shirdi is about 1,040 km from Mysore one way, so the bus covers about 2,080 km for the return. The route is Maddur, Tumkur (Tumakuru), Chitradurga and Hosapete to Hungund for the night, then Vijayapura, Solapur, Karmala and Ahmednagar. Allow about twenty six hours of bus driving over two days.
They are extra. Toll and parking receipts are added at actual, and GST goes on the final bill.
The driver gets a night allowance when the drive goes late into the night. It is shown in the quote. Per night it is ₹700 to ₹1,000, by size.
The 33 seater fits them with two seats spare. Each size and rate is on bus on rent in Mysore.
On request, yes. Send the date and pickup point, and the one way quote comes in writing.
Usually seven: three days each way and one day in Shirdi. Add a day for Shani Shingnapur.
October to February. The plains of north Karnataka and the Ahmednagar area are very hot from March to May, and long halts in the heat tire a big group. The monsoon brings some slow stretches but the highways stay open. Festival days in Shirdi are crowded, so book rooms early.
The hold of a full size coach takes a bag per person, water cans and cooking vessels. Keep a small bag inside for the night at Hungund, so the hold need not be emptied. Leave room for shopping on the way, such as Solapur chaddars or Ilkal saris.
