Tentative trip schedule

Day 1

Gopalaswamy Betta

Leave Bangalore at 5 AM and drive through Mysore, Nanjangud and Gundlupet, about 220 km and 4.5 to 5 hours. The hill temple inside Bandipur is often wrapped in mist, which is how it got the name Himavad. Private vehicles stop at the foot of the hill, and the forest department buses take you up to the temple.

Bandipur safari

Lunch in Gundlupet, then the forest department safari from the Bandipur reception on the Ooty road. Tickets are sold at the counter for each slot, so reach half an hour early on weekends. The ride is about an hour; deer, gaur and elephants are common, and a tiger on a lucky day.

Srikanteshwara Temple, Nanjangud

On the way home, stop for the evening darshan at Nanjangud on the bank of the Kabini. It is about 30 minutes off the safari route.

Drive back to Bangalore and vehicle fares

About 4 hours via Mysore and the expressway. You reach Bangalore around 11:30 PM. If that is too late, stay the night near Bandipur and take the morning safari instead.

FAQs

Yes, but it is a long day of about 450 km and 18 hours. Many groups prefer two days with a night near Bandipur, which also gives you the morning safari.

Up to 7 people: Innova Crysta. 8 to 17 people: a 12, 13, 14 or 17 seater tempo traveller, or a Force Urbania. 18 to 26 people: a 21 seater mini bus. 30 to 50 people: a 35, 40, 45 or 49 seater bus.

The fare covers the vehicle, fuel, our driver and the driver bata. The day comes to about 450 km, so a one day trip is billed on that, and longer trips on 300 km a day. Tolls, parking and safari tickets are extra.

No. At Gopalaswamy Betta private vehicles park at the foot of the hill and you take the forest department bus. The Bandipur safari also uses only forest department vehicles. Our vehicle waits at both places.

Early morning and late afternoon, run by the forest department from the Bandipur reception. Slot times change with the season and the counter sells tickets for each slot.

Cancel more than 72 hours before pickup and there is no charge. 48 to 72 hours: 10 percent. 24 to 48 hours: 25 percent. Less than 24 hours: 50 percent. If the vehicle breaks down or we cancel, you get a full refund in 2 working days.
