Overview

A full, well paced day for families, first timers and visitors who have only one free day in Bengaluru. A private car and our driver pick you up at 6 AM, so you are past the city traffic before it builds and inside the Srirangapatna temple by about 8:45 AM. You see Tipu's painted summer palace, the goddess temple and giant Nandi on Chamundi Hill, then spend the afternoon inside Mysuru Palace and at St Philomena's. We leave Mysuru around 5:15 PM and have you home by about 8:15 PM, though Friday and Sunday evening traffic into Bengaluru can add an hour. You can choose to stay for the Brindavan Gardens musical fountain at dusk instead, but then the drop is late, around 11 PM. Best from October to February.

Is this trip for you?

Active

A long day from 6 AM to about 8:15 PM, or about 11 PM if you stay for Brindavan. About 3 hours in the car each way, with short walks at every stop.

Great for

Families who want Mysuru without a night away
First trip to Mysuru
Visitors with one free day in Bengaluru

Think twice if

Young children or elderly parents who tire on a 14 hour day, the 2 day Mysuru trip is easier
You travel on a Friday, when Daria Daulat Bagh is listed as closed, or in Dasara week, when crowds and traffic are very heavy
You want the Brindavan fountain but not a drop near 11 PM
