Bangalore to Horanadu Tempo Traveller Rental — 8 to 18 Seater TT Hire for Temple and Family Travel

Tempo Traveller Packages for the Bangalore to Horanadu Route

Corporate Package

Built for Bangalore IT and manufacturing teams heading into the Malnad for offsites and annual outings, frequently combining Horanadu with a Chikkamagaluru plantation stay. Includes GST invoicing, a Proforma Invoice for PO-based approval, a named driver for the full multi-day trip and consolidated monthly billing for registered accounts. The same corporate tempo traveller bangalore vehicle stays with your team across the Kalasa, Horanadu and Sringeri legs, with duty slips signed daily and reconciled against the final invoice. Our corporate travels bangalore desk manages the arrangement end to end.

Family Package

The dominant booking on this corridor. Two or three families travelling together, or a small association of twelve to eighteen, covering Horanadu, Kalasa and Sringeri over three to four days and often adding Kollur. Itineraries are planned around darshan and annadana timings rather than driving hours, and the driver is briefed to expect long waits. Luggage capacity matters on a multi-temple trip where the group carries offerings and changes of clothing, and a 17 seater takes comfortably what three cars would struggle with.

Budget Package

For groups where cost per head decides whether the trip happens, which describes many association and community bookings. Non-AC 9 to 14 seater tempo travellers, point to point, clean vehicle, verified driver, no frills. The tempo traveller per km rate bangalore for the non-AC tier is our lowest, and across a 680 kilometre round trip the saving across a full vehicle is real. Non-AC is a sensible choice on this route in any case, since the Malnad stays cool for most of the year and windows open onto some of the best scenery in the state. The budget tier is about vehicle specification only, never about maintenance or driver vetting.

Luxury Package

Our premium tempo travellers, with fewer and wider push-back seats, more legroom, better cabin insulation and upgraded interiors. On a route where 170 kilometres wind through estate country, better seating and suspension are practical rather than decorative. Suited to senior management travel and milestone family trips. For a further step up, our luxury urbania rental bangalore option in 13 to 17 seater configuration covers the same circuit with a monocoque body and a noticeably smoother ride on the Kalasa stretch.

Our Vehicle Range in Bangalore

Our ac tempo traveller rental bangalore fleet runs 9, 12, 14, 16 and 18 seater configurations. Every category operates from the same Bangalore base, so a change in headcount after booking usually means a change of vehicle rather than a new booking.

•             Tempo traveller — 8 to 18 seater, AC and non-AC, the core vehicle for this route

•             Force Urbania — 13 to 17 seater luxury van, the premium alternative on the same circuit

•             Mini bus — 12 to 24 seater, the largest vehicle that handles every stop in the circuit comfortably

•             Bus — 27 to 50 seater, including Volvo and Benz coaches, which reach Horanadu but are restricted on the smaller approaches

•             Cars — 4 to 7 seater, from Etios, Dzire, Innova, Innova Crysta and Innova Hycross through Fortuner and Commuter, up to Corolla Altis, Camry, Audi A6, Audi Q7, BMW 5 Series, BMW 7 Series, Mercedes-Benz E Class, Mercedes-Benz S Class and Rolls-Royce Ghost

Tejas Tours and Travels does not operate sleeper bus services. Every vehicle is seated configuration with push-back seats, which is why the Horanadu run is planned as an early-morning daytime drive with proper meal halts rather than an overnight haul. On unlit estate roads with monsoon fog and wildlife about after dark, arriving in daylight with a rested driver is the only sensible approach, and the drive itself is half of what people come for.

Billing Details — What Is Included and What Is Extra

We quote in writing before you book and the quote itemises every line, so nothing appears at trip end that you have not already approved. A 20 percent advance of the total fare confirms the booking.

Included in the Quoted Fare

•             Base fare and fuel charges

•             Driver allowance

Not Included — Billed Separately at Actuals

•             Toll charges and parking fees

•             Interstate tax, where the itinerary crosses a state border — not applicable on the direct Horanadu route, which stays within Karnataka

•             Additional driver bata after 9:45 PM

•             GST as applicable

•             Final rental is calculated on total kilometres and hours from our garage to garage

Garage-to-garage billing is the standard basis across the organised group transport industry in Bangalore. The meter starts when the tempo traveller leaves our garage for your pickup point and stops when it returns. That distance is already built into the written quote, so the number you approve is the number you settle.

Tejas Tours and Travels does not provide passenger insurance cover. Passengers are advised to arrange their own travel insurance if required. Vehicle insurance and full statutory driver and vehicle compliance are maintained across the entire fleet.
