Udupi district · Chauffeur-driven only · Doorstep pickup
Manipal runs on arrivals and departures — parents flying in for an admission, families down for a hospital appointment, batches leaving at the end of term. We are ten minutes away in Udupi and treat Manipal as the same pickup zone, so there is no extra charge for the leg across.
Most Manipal bookings are one of three things: the Mangaluru airport run, about 65 km and ninety minutes on a good day; a Kasturba Hospital or KMC appointment where the driver waits rather than being called back; or a weekend out to Malpe, Agumbe, Kollur or St. Mary's Island. We pick up at hostel blocks, department gates and hospital entrances, not just houses, and for a 4 AM departure you get the driver's name and number the evening before.

No. Manipal and Udupi town are one pickup zone for us — doorstep, hostel gate or hospital entrance, with nothing added for the run across.
About 65 km, roughly an hour and a half in normal traffic. For a morning flight we suggest leaving three hours ahead; the Surathkal stretch of NH-66 is the part that catches people out.
Yes, and it is one of our most regular Manipal bookings. Tell us roughly how long and the waiting is quoted into the trip rather than added afterwards.
Regularly. The 11+1 tempo traveller suits a lab or a wing; for a batch or a convocation party the Force Urbania 16+1 takes sixteen passengers plus the driver.
Yes. Early departures for first flights are routine — book the evening before and you get the driver's name and number in advance.
Hired Harrish for 6 hours in Udupi and had a very smooth experience. He arrived on time, knew all the local spots, and covered everything efficiently without rushing us. Very polite, safe driving and clean car. Highly recommended for short trips in and around Udupi.

Excellent Trip Experience with Padmavathi Tours & Travels
We had a wonderful trip covering Anegudde, Guru Narasimha, Kamalashile, and Kollur Mookambika. The entire journey was very smooth and enjoyable.
Our driver, Haris, was very friendly, funny, helpful, and professional. He took us to all the temples at the right time and made sure we were comfortable throughout the trip. His driving was excellent, safe, and comfortable, and he also brought us back to our room on time.
Overall, it was a very memorable and enjoyable experience. We are really happy with the service provided by Padmavathi Tours & Travels. Special thanks to Haris for making our trip even more enjoyable.
