Travelling to Mysore
Surface
If you are traveling from Bangalore to Mysore, the KSRTC runs a regularly scheduled service, or you can choose from several private bus companies that actively cover the well-developed Bangalore Mysore Highway. The trip down the smooth road supplies tourists with extremely easy, convenient accessibility.
Private taxis from Bangalore, as well as Bangalore Airport taxi operators who are on call are readily available to take you directly to Mysore. Extensive bus lines, maintained highways and several bus/taxi companies all provide access around Mysore.

As the city’s main station, Mysore Junction has various trains arriving and connecting from Delhi, Bangalore, Chennai and Mumbai. The Shatabdi Express, from Chennai via Bangalore, is recommended for its air conditioned train and provided meals alongside mineral water – all supplied as part of the fare.
