Heading from Mysuru to Bengaluru for work, a flight, a hospital visit or a family function? Our Mysore to Bangalore cab picks you up at your door anywhere in Mysore, from Vijayanagar and Kuvempunagar to Hebbal and Bannimantap, and drops you at the exact address you give in Bangalore. With the Bengaluru–Mysuru Expressway now handling most of the 145 km, the drive usually takes around three hours outside peak traffic. Choose a Dzire or Etios for two to four people, an Ertiga or Innova Crysta for families, or a tempo traveller when the whole group is going together.
One-way fares are charged on at least 130 km. Round-trip fares are for the same car returning to Mysore (290 km over 1 day, with a daily minimum). Toll, parking and state permit are extra.
Since the access-controlled Bengaluru–Mysuru Expressway opened, almost every cab between the two cities uses it. The main carriageway bypasses Srirangapatna, Mandya, Maddur, Channapatna and Ramanagara, so you skip the slow stretches through town centres and the long queues that used to build up at every junction. Expect a couple of toll plazas on the way; tolls are a pass-through cost and are usually added to your bill at actuals unless your quote says otherwise.
There are still good reasons to come off at an exit. Some travellers want a plate of Maddur vade at a roadside eatery, a quick stop at the Channapatna wooden toy shops, or breakfast at one of the darshinis on the service road. Tell your driver at pickup and he will plan the exit so you lose as little time as possible.
The expressway ends near Kengeri, and the last part of the trip depends entirely on your drop point. Rough guidance from our drivers:
If you are flying out, see our separate Mysore to Bangalore Airport page, since the airport at Devanahalli is well north of the city and needs different timing.
Early morning departures between 5 and 7 am are the smoothest. You reach Bangalore before office traffic peaks and arrive fresh for a meeting or a hospital appointment. Late morning is fine too. The trips that run long are Friday evenings and Sunday evenings, when weekend traffic flows in both directions, and any weekday where you need to cross central Bangalore between 5 and 9 pm.
During Dasara, Mysore itself gets congested around the palace, Sayyaji Rao Road and the exhibition grounds, so pickups from the old city may need a few extra minutes. Our coordinators adjust the reporting time when you book.
Most people on this route book a one-way drop: you pay for the trip you take and the driver heads back on his own. If you are going for a day of meetings, a visa interview or a shopping trip and coming back the same night, a round trip often works out simpler, because the same car and driver wait for you and you do not have to arrange a return cab separately. Multi-day round trips are also possible; the driver allowance for overnight stays is built into the round-trip fare structure.
A Swift Dzire or Toyota Etios is the practical choice. Both have decent boot space for two medium suitcases and handle the expressway comfortably.
The Maruti Ertiga seats six, while the Toyota Innova and Innova Crysta give more legroom and a smoother ride, which matters if you have elderly passengers or someone travelling after a medical procedure.
Office teams, wedding parties and college groups can book a Tempo Traveller 12+1, a Force Urbania 16+1 or a mini bus, all available with AC.
Your quoted fare covers fuel and the driver allowance. Tolls and parking are generally extra, and any waiting beyond the agreed time or detours to additional addresses should be mentioned while booking so the quote reflects them. Our support team answers calls and WhatsApp messages around the clock on +91 99725 37722, so if your plans change at the last minute you can reach a person, not a voicemail.
