One Day Bangalore to Mysore Sightseeing by Private Cab
This one day Bangalore to Mysore trip by private cab is our most popular day tour from Bangalore. Your driver picks you up from home at 6:30 AM, and by evening you have seen the island temple town of Srirangapatna, Chamundi Hills, the grand Mysore Palace and the musical fountain at KRS Brindavan Gardens, before the drive back to your doorstep.
The same cab and driver stay with you all day, so there are no buses, trains or autos to arrange. The fare is per cab, not per person, and includes fuel, driver allowance, parking, toll and expressway toll.
We have run Bangalore to Mysore day trips since 2013. The day order is planned around temple hours, palace crowds and the fountain timing at Brindavan, so a long day still feels well paced.
Pickup from anywhere in Bangalore – including Majestic, Whitefield, Electronic City, Sarjapur Road, Bellandur, HSR Layout, Koramangala, Indiranagar, Marathahalli, BTM Layout, JP Nagar, Banashankari, RR Nagar, Vijayanagar, Yeshwanthpur, Hebbal and Yelahanka – from your home or hotel. The fares shown are fixed for central Bangalore; for other areas, the final fare depends on your pickup location and we confirm it when you enquire.
Would you rather not do it all in one long day? The Mysore Tour from Bangalore – 2 Days adds a night in Mysore, so you see the same places at a relaxed pace, with time for Jaganmohan Palace or Karanji Lake too.
