Pickup for the group
The tempo traveller can call at a home and a hotel before it leaves Mysore. It takes the T Narasipura road towards Kollegal, the route that crosses MM Hills into Tamil Nadu, and then the national highway from Salem to Trichy, about 350 km in all. Plan on roughly seven hours. On Tamil Nadu trips we check the news the night before, because the Kaveri water dispute sometimes sets off bandh calls in Mysore.
Breakfast
The family eats breakfast at Kollegal, a taluk town of Chamarajanagar district, about an hour from the city. Thirty minutes gives a dozen people time for a meal and the restrooms. BR Hills lies about 25 to 30 km away via Yelandur, and Gundal dam about 15 km, but today's road heads east. Chamarajanagar railway station is about 38 km from here if anyone in the group joins late. Children can stretch while the food comes.
Temple halt
The tempo traveller can halt at MM Hills for darshan at the Male Mahadeshwara temple, which pilgrims from both Karnataka and Tamil Nadu visit in lakhs. Thirty minutes is enough on a quiet day. Talabetta, at the foot, is where the walking pilgrims start. The temple gives free prasada meals, and only a few small vegetarian eateries run on the hill. Mobile signal is weak here, so keep the family together.
Family lunch
Mettur is lunch for the family, forty five minutes so the children can see the park below the dam. Ellis Park has a snake park and a deer park and keeps day hours, roughly until 6 pm. The dam is about 1,700 m long and 214 ft high, and the reservoir behind it is the Stanley Reservoir. Salem, where the highway begins, is about 50 km on. Ask for a table near the fan.
Tea in Salem
Salem is the tea halt, fifteen minutes for the family. The city is a big textile centre, and Salem silk and Salem fabric both carry Geographical Indication tags, so a quick cloth shop is easy. Mangoes are the fruit to buy in season. From here the tempo traveller takes NH 44 south, a smooth four lane road, and the rest of the drive is much faster. Buy fruit for the highway stretch.
Temple town
Namakkal, on NH 44, is a good short halt for the family. The Anjaneyar statue here, about 18 ft tall, is a big draw, and the Namagiri Amman shrine is inside the Narasimha Swamy temple complex. The temple car festival is held in March and April. Namakkal is also called the transport town, and lorries crowd the highway, so the driver takes care. Trichy is about 70 km further. Footwear stays in the van for the darshan.
Drop at the hotel
The tempo traveller reaches Trichy about seven hours after pickup and drops the family at the hotel. Trichy is about 322 km south of Chennai, a handy base for onward trips. The city gets about 842 mm of rain a year, mostly from October to December, and is hottest from April to June. Ponni rice from the Manachanallur mills is the local buy. The airport is close, about 5 km out.

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. 👍

By road Trichy is about 350 km from Mysore, close to 700 km there and back. The tempo traveller goes through Kollegal and MM Hills to Mettur, then Salem and Namakkal on NH 44. Allow about seven hours to reach the city with a family on board.
Trichy suits the 16 seater, with bag space. All sizes are on tempo traveller on rent in Mysore.
On request, yes. Tell us the date and where to pick up; the quote comes in writing.
A late return after 10 pm adds a night bata for the driver. Trichy: we put the amount in the quote. For the tempo traveller: ₹600 to ₹700, by size a night.
Trichy: yes, parking, tolls, GST and the Tamil Nadu permit are added at actual, with receipts.
Breakfast at MM Hills, about 140 km from Mysore and lunch at Mettur, about 175 km out. Both are fine with children.
November to February is the gentlest. April to June is very hot in Trichy, and October to December brings most of the year's rain. The Margazhi festival in December and January draws about a million visitors to Srirangam, so hotels fill early then. The forest crossing near MM Hills is always planned for daylight.
One medium bag per person fits in the back of the tempo traveller, plus a cool box. For temple visits, keep a small bag with dhotis, shawls and footwear covers near the door, so nobody has to dig through the luggage. Medicines and documents stay in hand bags.
