Family pickup
At 5:30 the van picks up your group of nine to twenty, from homes, Mysuru Junction or the bus stand. Trains from the junction run to Hassan and Arsikere by Krishnarajasagara, but the van's road is different: expressway to Srirangapatna, then the Pandavapura turn for KR Pet. Sigandur is about 365 km away and seven and a half hours of driving, so the group reaches the backwaters in the afternoon. Big bags ride at the back.
Tea
The first fifteen minute halt is at KR Pet, 55 km out, for tea and washrooms. Stalls in this part of Mandya district crush fresh sugarcane juice, a quick energy drink before the long day. The Hosaholalu temple, about 2 km west on the Bherya road, is a Hoysala work of around 1250 on a raised platform, worth a stop on the drive home. Breakfast waits at Channarayapatna, about 35 km on.
Breakfast
Breakfast is planned at Channarayapatna, 90 km from home, where NH75 runs through the middle of town. The highway hotels here are used to families arriving together and can push two tables close for a group of twelve. Allow half an hour for the meal and the washrooms. Fields of sugarcane and coconut stretch around the taluk. Twenty km off, at Nuggehalli, two Hoysala temples of the thirteenth century wait for a slower trip. Arsikere is about 55 km further.
Tea and fuel
Fuel goes in at Arsikere, 145 km out, while the group sips tea or tender coconut from the stalls. This is the coconut heart of the region, and the dried kernels, copra, end up at the Tiptur auction yard, held on two days each week. In town stands a Jain shrine called the Sahasrakuta Jinalaya, put up in the Hoysala period. Fifteen minutes is the plan. Beyond Arsikere, NH69 runs about 85 km through flat farmland to Bhadravathi.
Tea
Smoke stacks on the skyline announce Bhadravathi, 230 km from Mysore, home to the VISL steel works and a paper mill. The van stops fifteen minutes for tea. Older children may like to know the town also keeps a Hoysala temple with three shrines, dedicated to Lakshmi Narasimha, Venugopala and Purushottama. Shivamogga, the lunch halt, is only 20 km on, so a light snack is better than a meal here. Use the washrooms before moving.
Lunch
The van reaches Shivamogga, still Shimoga on many signs, after 250 km, in time for lunch. The city stands on the Tunga river and marks the start of Malnad, the rainy hill belt. Most of its rain comes between June and early October, so expect wet roads in those months. Forty minutes lets twelve people eat in comfort. After lunch NH69 heads north west to Sagar, about 75 km, and the backwaters lie about 115 km away.
Tea
Sagar, 325 km out, is the last town before the backwaters and the van's tea halt. Areca nut is the main cash crop here, and the Sagar market trades it along with pepper, clove, cinnamon and nutmeg; a small packet of spices makes a good souvenir. Malnad food, akki rotti and kadubu, is served in the eating places. Varadamoola, the source of the Varada river, is about 6 km away. Sigandur is 40 km on.
Arrival
About seven and a half hours after Mysore, the van crosses the Sigandur cable stayed bridge over the Sharavathi backwaters. The main bridge is a little over 2 km long, about 6 km with its approaches, and opened on 14 July 2025, so the old boat crossing is no longer needed. The van drops the group near the temple. Leave footwear in the van and wear modest clothes for darshan.
Looking for a Mysore to Sigandur tempo traveller for a temple trip with 9 to 20 people? Sigandur: you travel as one group, at your own pace. Each size and rate is on tempo traveller on rent in Mysore. Sigandur is also written Sigandoor. Start from any point in Mysuru: home, hotel, railway station or bus stand.

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. 👍

About 365 km one way, so roughly 730 km for the round trip. The tempo traveller goes via KR Pet, Channarayapatna, Arsikere and Bhadravathi to Shivamogga (Shimoga), then Sagar and the Sigandur bridge. It takes about 7.5 hours with breakfast, lunch and three short halts.
A Sigandur return later than 10 pm adds a night bata to the driver. Sigandur: the amount is on the quote. On our Mysore card that is ₹600 to ₹700, by size a night.
Yes, that works. Send the date and pickup point, and the one way quote comes in writing.
Sigandur: the 16 seater, with bag space. Every size is listed on tempo traveller on rent in Mysore.
No, they are separate. Tolls, parking, permits and GST go on the bill at cost.
Weekends and festival days are busy. Weekday mornings are calmer.
October to March is the cool, clear season in Shivamogga district, good for the drive and the temple. From June to September the monsoon raises the backwaters and the views are grand, but the hill road is wet and slower. Summer is warm but dry.
For a two or three day trip, one medium bag each fits at the back of the van. Keep umbrellas, a towel and modest temple clothes in hand bags. Snacks and water for the seven and a half hour drive should stay near the seats.
