Home pickup
The tempo traveller comes to your home at 5 am; for a group spread across the city we can add a second pickup, for example at a hotel near the palace. Big suitcases go behind the last row, and each family keeps a small overnight bag apart for the halts at Nellore and Vijayawada. The van leaves on the expressway towards Srirangapatna, and the first toll on the way out is the Gananguru plaza there. The first night at Nellore is about 525 km away, so breakfast waits until Kolar, after the city.

Tea and fuel
Ramanagara, about 95 km out, is the first halt, fifteen minutes for tea, restrooms and diesel just off the expressway. Outside the town rises Ramadevara Betta, with a Rama temple on top and India's only vulture sanctuary around it; the climb is a few hundred stone steps, a plan for a cooler day and another trip. The hills here are of hard Closepet granite, named after Closepet, the old name of the town. Children can stretch their legs while the tank is filled, and then the van heads for the city ring roads.

Breakfast
Kolar comes about 215 km from Mysore, and breakfast here is a proper half hour after the city crossing. The highway hotels near the bypass have space for a tempo traveller and serve idli, vada and coffee for a dozen people quickly. Kolar is dairy country, and its district milk union is one of the large ones in Karnataka, so a glass of milk for the children is easy to get. The Someshwara temple, a well known Vijayanagara period temple, is in the town if the group wants a quiet ten minutes. Chittoor and lunch are about 95 km on.

Lunch
Lunch for the group is at Chittoor, about 310 km out, a junction town where the Kolar road meets NH40. The van parks at a highway hotel, and the family can ask for curd rice and a milder curry for children along with the Andhra meals. The Ardhagiri Anjaneyaswamy temple at Aragonda is near the town, but it is a detour of its own, so keep it for the drive home. At Sankranti the Kanuma festival parades decorated bulls through the streets, which children love to see. Forty minutes is right. Tirupati is about 85 km ahead.

Tea
Tirupati, about 395 km from Mysore, is a short tea halt today. The Tirupati laddu, the GI tagged prasadam made only by TTD, is the thing most families want to carry home, and the driver can tell you which TTD counter is easiest to reach with the van. Kapila Theertham, a Shiva temple and theertham run by TTD, is in the town and takes about 45 minutes, so it suits a slower day. The road now runs on to Nellore, about 130 km ahead, tonight's halt. Fill the water bottles here.

First night
The van reaches Nellore, about 525 km from Mysore, in the evening, and the first night is here. Pick a hotel near the NH16 bypass, so the morning start avoids the city; rooms for a family group of twelve are easy to book. Dinner can be Andhra meals, and the sweet to try is malai kaja, made from maida, milk and sugar. Nellore sits on the Penna river, and in medieval times it was called Vikrama Simhapuri. Sleep early. Day two is short, about 265 km to Vijayawada, with time to rest there.

Breakfast
Ongole is about 120 km up the coast from Nellore, 645 km from Mysore, and the van stops here for breakfast at a highway hotel by the bypass. NH16 is part of the Golden Quadrilateral and goes round the town, so parking is simple. Ongole is the Prakasam district headquarters, and the Ongole breed of oxen is named after it. It sits on the coastal plain at about 10 m, so by mid morning the air is already warm; keep the AC on and the bottles full. Vijayawada is about 145 km on.

Second night
The van rolls into Vijayawada, about 790 km from Mysore, by early afternoon, and the second night is here. With the afternoon free, families like Bhavani Island, a riverside park on the Krishna close to the city, or the Prakasam Barrage, finished in 1957, at sunset. The Akkana Madanna caves sit at the foot of Indrakeeladri hill. Children love the painted wooden Kondapalli toys, made in a village near the city and protected by a GI tag. A hotel near the highway keeps the next start smooth. Visakhapatnam is about 350 km on.

Tea
Eluru is about 60 km out of Vijayawada, 850 km from Mysore, and the van stops for tea on the highway. The town is known for pile carpets, besides textiles and leather goods. Kolleru Lake lies about 15 km away; in winter it holds huge flocks of birds, and a family with binoculars may want two hours there on the way back. Today keep it to fifteen minutes and a restroom break, because lunch is planned at Rajahmundry, about 95 km on. Hand out snacks here so nobody is hungry before lunch.

Lunch
Lunch is at Rajahmundry, about 945 km from Mysore, on the Godavari. The van crosses the wide river near the Godavari Arch Bridge, a sight the children watch for. Pootharekulu, the paper thin sweet filled with sugar and ghee, is made in Atreyapuram nearby by about 400 families, and shops in the city sell boxes that travel well. Forty minutes covers a sit down lunch for the group. The driver tops up diesel for the last 195 km. Annavaram, with its hill temple, is about 100 km on.

Temple halt
Annavaram is about 1,045 km from Mysore, right on NH16, and the Satyanarayana Swamy temple stands on Ratnagiri hill above it. The present temple was built in 1891 and rebuilt in 1933 to 1934. A family darshan takes about an hour on a normal day, and the van waits at the temple parking. Many families also book the collective Satyanarayana Vratam here, which needs extra time, so tell us at booking. Visakhapatnam is about 95 km ahead, so a darshan in the early afternoon still brings you in before dark.

Hotel drop
The tempo traveller pulls into Visakhapatnam, or Vizag, late in the afternoon, after about 24 to 24.5 hours of driving over three days. Being the largest city of Andhra Pradesh, squeezed between the hills and the coast, it has slow traffic near the centre in the evening. The driver brings each family to the hotel door and helps unload the back rows. Have an early dinner; seafood and Andhra meals are on every street, and plain vegetarian plates are there for the children. Rest well before the first local day.

Visakhapatnam is about 1,140 km from Mysore one way, so the tempo traveller covers about 2,280 km for the round trip. The road runs round Bangalore to Kolar, Chittoor and Tirupati, then up the coast on NH16 by Nellore, Ongole, Vijayawada and Rajahmundry. Plan about 24 to 24.5 hours of driving with stops, over three days, with nights at Nellore and Vijayawada.
The 9 seater is enough, or the 12 seater with lots of bags. Every size is listed on tempo traveller on rent in Mysore.
It can be done. Give us the date and head count, and the one way fare comes back in writing.
If the return runs late at night, the driver gets a night allowance. It is shown in the quote. On our Mysore card that is ₹600 to ₹700, by size a night.
We limit it to about seven or eight hours a day, with two night halts each way.
They are extra. GST, tolls, parking and any permit are charged at actual.
They can. The Kanaka Durga temple at Vijayawada, where the van stops for the second night, is packed during Dasara, and hotels fill early. At Annavaram, Karthika month brings the biggest crowds for the vratam. Near Tirupati, Brahmotsavam and Vaikunta Ekadasi push the daily pilgrim count past one lakh. Tell us your dates, and we book rooms early or move a halt by a few km.
Very little. With a 5 am start the van reaches Nellore by evening, day two to Vijayawada is short, and day three ends in Vizag by late afternoon. Only the early morning start out of Mysore is in the dark. The driver rests a full night at each halt, which keeps a long family trip safe and the children rested.
