Getting there

Kadri Sri Manjunatha Temple is at Mangaluru, about 58 km from Udupi. We run chauffeur-driven cars and tempo travellers to it from Udupi, Manipal, Mangalore, Karkala and Kundapura. Your driver knows the darshan windows here and will plan the departure time around them rather than around the odometer.

Darshan timings, seva bookings and festival dates are set by the temple administration and do change. Please confirm with the temple directly before travelling — and tell us what you find, so we can time the drive to suit.

Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely recommend their service to others.
Dr Rahul · MangaloreMookambika to Mangalore via Udupi
Had a wonderful experience with this service for our round trip from Udupi to Sringeri on 5-Oct-2026. The pricing was very affordable, and our driver, Haris, was extremely friendly, professional, and courteous throughout the journey. The Etios was clean and in excellent condition. What impressed me the most was his safe and confident driving, especially during heavy rain and on the ghat roads. He also drove very carefully while returning at night. I travelled with my family and felt completely safe and comfortable throughout the entire trip. Overall, it was a very smooth and pleasant experience. I would definitely avail of this service again in the future and would highly recommend Haris and this service to anyone looking for a safe, reliable, and affordable ride.

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.
