Pickup before dawn
The Urbania picks you up at half past four. Kannada is the main language around Mysore and Hindi is not widely understood outside tourist spots, but further north, in Solapur, Kannada is still spoken along with Marathi and Telugu, so elders will manage. The van has AC, reclining seats and a wide door. The trip has one night at Hungund. We leave on the expressway for Maddur. Elders get the front seats with the most legroom for the long road.
Coffee
Maddur is the first coffee, about an hour and a quarter out. The Urbania leaves the expressway and parks by a vada stall in the old town. Elders can stay seated while the driver brings coffee. Near Maddur, at Shivapura, a memorial hall recalls the flag satyagraha of 1938; it stands next to the highway. After fifteen minutes the van turns north on the state highway through Kunigal. The van moves on before the morning traffic builds.
Breakfast
Breakfast is at Tumkur (Tumakuru), a district city at about 800 m. Half an hour for a group of ten, with the van at the hotel door. Road signs here show both Tumkur and Tumakuru. Madhugiri, with its huge monolith and hill fort, is about 43 km off, a trip for another time. After breakfast the Urbania joins NH48 north, and the driver holds a gentle pace so elders can doze.
Lunch
Chitradurga is lunch on day one, forty minutes. On the drive in, look for the Vani Vilas Sagar side towards Hiriyur; the dam lies about 60 km from the city. Chitradurga is a dry town, with about 576 mm of rain a year, so carry water on the afternoon stretch. After lunch the Urbania turns onto NH50, the road north east to Kudligi and Hosapete. Elders can rest indoors at the hotel while the meals are served.
Tea
Kudligi is the afternoon tea stop. On the Choornur road stands a huge banyan, the Maliyammana aaladamara, if anyone wants a photo. Fifteen minutes for tea and restrooms, and elders can walk a little by the van. The town lies at about 596 m. Hosapete is about 45 km ahead, past Mariyammanahalli. Elders can take their afternoon tablets here with a light snack and a cup of tea, and the driver checks the tyres and the AC before the evening run.
Tea
Hosapete is a quick tea and fuel halt. The town is the headquarters of Vijayanagara district, and people here speak Kannada, Urdu and Telugu. Buy fruit for the evening. From here NH50 runs north through Kushtagi and Ilkal, and the night halt at Hungund is about 110 km away, so the family arrives before late evening. Hampi is only 13 km away, a place for another trip, and the driver can suggest how to add it on the way home if you have a spare day.
Night halt
Hungund, about 525 km from Mysore, is the night halt. The town stands at about 531 m on NH50, and the highway goes on from here to Basavana Bagewadi, about 45 km, and Vijayapura. Book rooms ahead and ask for ground floor rooms for elders. A light dinner and an early night. The Urbania stays at the hotel, and the driver rests for the second day. Ask the hotel for an early breakfast parcel, as day two starts before sunrise.
Breakfast
Vijayapura is the breakfast stop on day two. Near the citadel lies Malik e Maidan, a huge medieval cannon, one of the sights of the old Adil Shahi capital. Breakfast takes thirty minutes. Elders should eat well here, as lunch is in Solapur, about 95 to 100 km on, across the Maharashtra border. The Urbania keeps the AC steady on this stretch. The city is also a common night halt on Shirdi drives, so it is an option if anyone feels tired.
Lunch
Solapur is the lunch halt. The city has an old fort whose inscriptions call the town Sonalpur. Solapur was once known for Asia's largest spinning mills, and its textile trade goes back to the Peshwa period. Forty minutes for lunch and rest. From here the road runs by Mohol, Karmala and Ahmednagar, about 230 km to Shirdi. Elders can rest in the cool of the hotel for a while, because the afternoon stretch to Karmala and Ahmednagar is long and mostly open country.
Tea
Karmala, about 120 km after Solapur, is the afternoon tea stop. Its Kamala Bhavani temple is built in the Hemadpanti style of 1727, and the van can stop near it for a short darshan. Fifteen minutes. Ahmednagar is about 100 km on, and Shirdi beyond it. The temple's design is built around the number 96, with a stepped well, pillars and painted panels in that count, which elders find curious. Restrooms are close by, so use them before the last two stretches of the day.
Evening tea
Ahmednagar is the evening tea halt. The city and district have been renamed Ahilyanagar, so signs may show either name. Twenty minutes for tea and restrooms. Shirdi is about 85 km on via Rahuri, under two hours. Elders can rest in the van; the last stretch is on a good road and the driver keeps a calm pace. The fort, where national leaders were once held by the British, is now partly a museum, a stop to keep for the drive home.
Drop near the gate
Roughly twenty one hours of driving over two days. Our Urbania drops elders near the temple gate and the driver helps with bags at the hotel. Ask the Sansthan about help for elders in the darshan queue, and book darshan online before you leave. Simple meals are served at the Sai Prasadalaya. The van stays with you for the days in Shirdi. Keep elders' identity cards handy, as the Sansthan may ask for them at the counter.
Need a Mysore to Shirdi Force Urbania for 8 to 16 people, with elders on a pilgrimage? It is the most comfortable van for three long days on the road. We arrange Force Urbania on rent in Mysore with a driver at Tejas Tours & Travels.

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.

Shirdi is about 1,040 km from Mysore by road, close to 2,080 km both ways. The Urbania travels via Maddur, Tumkur (Tumakuru), Chitradurga and Hosapete to a night at Hungund, then on by Vijayapura, Solapur and Ahmednagar. Allow about twenty one hours of driving across two days.
If the return runs late at night, the driver gets a night allowance. It is shown in the quote. The Urbania night bata is ₹700.
We keep it to about 22 to 22.5 hours of driving a day with two night halts each way.
They are extra. Tolls, parking and permits are paid at cost, and GST is added on the bill.
The 8 seater. The full size list is on Force Urbania on rent in Mysore.
Yes, quoted when you ask. Give us the date and head count, and the one way fare comes back in writing.
Not usually. The route crosses the drier side of Karnataka and Maharashtra, and Ahmednagar gets little rain. Showers can slow the highway between June and October, so the driver keeps a lower speed. Winter, October to February, is the most comfortable for elders, and summer is very hot on the plains.
Yes. The AC, reclining seats and space in the aisle help children rest. Bring a pillow, snacks and downloaded shows for each child. The night at Hungund splits the drive, and each day has five halts. Keep a small bag with spare clothes handy for the second morning.
