Bengaluru — Vidhana Soudha, the seat of the Karnataka government in Bengaluru

Bengaluru

Karnataka's garden capital and the easiest launch point for Coorg, Mysuru and Chikkamagaluru road trips.

About Bengaluru

October to February
Ideal duration
1 – 2 days

Bengaluru is the gateway most South India road trips begin from. Airport pickups, corporate travel and weekend departures to Coorg, Mysuru and Chikkamagaluru all start here, so we keep chauffeur-driven sedans and tempo travellers stationed across the city.

Plan a day of parks, palaces and food streets before you drive out, or use the city purely as a transit night — either way our drivers know the traffic windows that decide whether you leave in one hour or three.
