Bangalore to Thekkady by road
Bangalore to Thekkady covers 500 km and takes around 9-10 Hours. That makes it a full day behind the wheel, so most passengers either start before dawn or travel overnight and arrive fresh in the morning.
The road runs south-west out of Bangalore and crosses from Karnataka into Kerala, so an inter-state permit applies and is charged as actual.
A one-way drop means you pay for the 500 km you actually travel, not for the car to return empty. A sedan works out from about ₹6,500 at ₹13/km, with toll, parking and any state permit charged as actuals on top. Nothing is added after the trip that was not quoted before it.
What is waiting at Thekkady
Most passengers on this route are travelling for sightseeing. Periyar Wildlife Sanctuary, Thekkady is the reason people come to Thekkady — boat safaris on a lake in the middle of a tiger reserve. Your driver knows where cars can and cannot go there, which saves a good deal of circling on arrival.
On timing: September to March is the comfortable window for Periyar Wildlife Sanctuary, Thekkady. Outside it the roads are still fine — it is the standing around at the other end that is less pleasant.
