Udupi Sightseeing & Temple Tour Packages

Nine ready-made circuits we run week after week, from a four-hour turn around Udupi to twelve-hour temple days at Gokarna, Sringeri and Kukke Subrahmanya. Every one is chauffeur-driven, and every one is quoted to your group rather than off a price list.

How the packages work

Each package is a route and a duration, not a fixed price list. You tell us which number you want and how many are travelling; we tell you which vehicle suits the group and quote the day all-inclusive — vehicle, driver, driver bata and fuel. Toll, parking and any permit charges are billed at actuals.

  • The hours are running hours. A 12-hour package means the vehicle is with you for twelve hours from pickup to drop. Darshan queues sit inside that, which is why the early starts matter.
  • Nothing here is rigid. Add a temple, drop one, or ask for a stop that is not on any of these lists. The nine circuits exist because they are what people ask for most, not because they are all we drive.
  • Children above nine years are counted as full passengers. It rarely changes the plan, but it does change which size of vehicle is comfortable.
  • Long circuits work better overnight. Packages 4, 6, 8 and 9 are twelve-hour days. With elderly parents or small children, splitting them across two days costs less in comfort than it does in money.
  • Every package is chauffeur-driven. We do not offer self-drive on any vehicle, on any package.

Not sure which number fits your family? Call +91 94492 30083 and describe the trip — we will say honestly which package does what you want, and which one does not.

Tell us the dates and the route. We reply with an all-inclusive figure — driver, fuel and taxes included.

Good to know

Package questions we are asked most

We do not publish rates. The figure depends on which vehicle your group needs — a car or one of the tempo travellers — and every package is quoted individually. Call +91 94492 30083 or send the enquiry form and you will have an all-inclusive figure the same day.

Each package states its own duration, from four hours for the Udupi local half day to twelve hours for the Gokarna, Malnad, Mangaluru and Dharmasthala circuits. The hours are the vehicle's running time from pickup to drop, not the darshan time.

Always. Every package is chauffeur-driven — the vehicle comes with one of our own drivers, who knows the darshan timings and the ghat roads. We do not offer self-drive on any vehicle.

Yes. These nine are the circuits we run most often, but they are a starting point. Add a temple, drop one, swap a beach for a waterfall — tell us what your family wants to see and we rebuild the day around it at the same duration.

Children above nine years are counted as full passengers. Below that they travel on a lap or share a seat, which matters mainly for choosing the right size of vehicle.

It follows your headcount. Two to four with luggage takes the Glanza or the Etios, five to seven the Innova Crysta or the Ertiga, eight to eleven the Tempo Traveller 11+1, and twelve or more the Force Urbania 16+1. For a twelve-hour circuit we usually suggest going one size up.

Your doorstep in Udupi or Manipal, at no extra charge within town limits. Pickups from Brahmavara, Kaup, Karkala, Kundapura and Mangaluru are arranged too — tell us the address when you book.

It can, and for families travelling with elderly parents it usually should. The Gokarna and Dharmasthala circuits in particular are far more comfortable as an overnight. We plan the halt and quote it the same way.

What our passengers say

4.9 from 32 reviews
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.
Melita JosephUdupi - Karkala
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.
