One meeting point
Twenty people meet at one point at five, a hotel near the palace or the suburban bus stand on Irwin Road, the intercity stand by the Nilgiri road junction, where buses run every few minutes for latecomers coming from town. Leaving this early, the mini bus clears the ring road and NICE Road before office traffic. Bags go in the rear, with a few seats kept free if needed. Vellore is about seven and a half hours away, so the group arrives by afternoon.

Tea stop
About an hour into the trip the group pauses at Maddur, too early for a full breakfast. The mini bus leaves the expressway for the old road, where hotels have space to park and can turn out tea and Maddur vada for twenty in a quarter of an hour. In the days of the old highway this was the standard halfway snack stop. The river here, the Shimsha, is also called Madduru Hole. Breakfast proper is at Bidadi.

Thatte idli
Bidadi is the group's breakfast halt, about 110 km out, famous for thatte idli, a wide flat idli served with a dollop of butter. Since the expressway passes outside the town, the driver takes the exit to the old road and its row of eateries. Collecting orders on the bus before arrival speeds things up for twenty. Diesel is topped up here too, before the ring road. Thirty minutes in all.

Border town
Hosur is the industrial town just inside Tamil Nadu, about 175 km out. The driver shows the vehicle permit at the border check, where cameras now read number plates to check tax, and the group gets tea and restrooms. Rajaji's birthplace memorial is at Thorapalli near Hosur, and the Kelavarapalli dam is about 10 km off, both for another trip. Fifteen minutes in all, then Krishnagiri, about 50 km ahead.

Tea halt
Krishnagiri, about 225 km from Mysore, is the last tea halt before lunch. Mango stalls line the highway in season, and the district has about 150 mango nurseries around Santhur village if anyone gardens. The town holds a mango exhibition every year. The bus turns from NH44 onto NH48 here, heading east. The Kattuveera Anjaneya temple is a local stop for those who want a quick prayer. Fifteen minutes, then Ambur, about 70 km on.

Biryani lunch
Ambur, about 295 km out, is famous across the south for biryani, and many groups plan lunch here. Book ahead for twenty, half biryani and half vegetarian meals, so service is quick. The biryani comes with dhalcha and onion raita. The town is also a leather centre, with shoe and garment shops by the road. Ambur sits on the Palar river, and from here Vellore is about 50 km. Forty five minutes for lunch and a restroom halt.

Drop at your hotel
With halts the mini bus reaches Vellore in about seven and a half hours. The group is dropped at its hotel or near the hospital, and the bus then parks away from the jammed CMC streets. Anyone going on by public bus will find the main stand beside the Palar bridge. Leather shops are everywhere, as this region sends more finished leather goods abroad than any other in India. Afternoons are scorching; save outings for the evening.
Need a Mysore to Vellore mini bus for 20 people, for the Golden Temple, the fort or a hospital visit? Pickup is from a hotel near Mysuru Palace or the city bus stand, skirt Bangalore on the NICE road and reach Vellore by afternoon. See mini bus on rent in Mysore with Tejas Tours & Travels.

The halts are at Maddur, Bidadi, Hosur, Krishnagiri and Ambur, so the longest stretch is under two hours. Seat elders near the door, and let them step down first at each stop. Highway hotels with clean restrooms are chosen for the main halts.
