Night travel through the Bandipur–Mudumalai forest stretch is restricted between 9 PM and 6 AM by forest department rules, so plan departure timing accordingly.
Which Cab Should You Choose for Calicut?
A Sedan or Innova Crysta comfortably covers this route; larger groups combining a Wayanad stopover should consider a Tempo Traveller.
Sedan
Best for: 1–4 passengers, couples, light luggage, budget-focused one-way or round trips.
Ertiga
Best for: 4–6 passengers, small families, moderate luggage.
Innova Crysta
Best for: families wanting extra cabin space, senior travellers, multi-day trips, more luggage.
Tempo Traveller / Urbania (9–17 seater)
Best for: larger groups, joint families, temple groups and corporate outings.
Mini Bus (20–35 seater)
Best for: large pilgrimage or tour groups travelling together on a fixed itinerary.
One-Way & Round Trip Options
Book a one-way cab from Bangalore to Calicut when you only need the drop. A one-way drop suits business travellers or those flying out of Calicut airport afterward.
A round-trip cab keeps the same vehicle and driver for the return journey and any sightseeing in between. A round trip works well when combined with a Wayanad halt on the way.
Multi-day round trips are billed on total kilometres run plus driver bata per night halt (minimum daily km applies as per the vehicle chosen) — request a specific quotation for your dates.

Interstate Permit & Tax Note
Kerala is outside Karnataka, so the cab needs an interstate tourist permit and the applicable state entry tax/green tax to cross the border legally. BLR Cabs arranges these on your behalf — the cost is added to the final bill as an actual, over and above the estimated per-km fare.
