About Mangalore

BANGALORE TO MANGALORE – CAB

A quick getaway to the coastal town of Mangalore is the perfect plan for a weekend or during vacations. Located about 350 km from the state capital, this port city is a cosmopolitan hub. It is strategically situated between the Western Ghats and the Arabian Sea which has earned it the sobriquet of ‘Gateway of Karnataka’.

One of the cities chosen for the Smart City Project, Mangalore has a history that dates to 715 BC. Named after the Hindu Goddess Mangaladevi, the city is a multilingual amalgamation of different cultural influences. With something for everyone, Mangalore has a lot to offer to explorers and enthusiastic travellers.

There are quite a few historical and religious attractions in and around the city, not to forget the many picturesque beaches. Getting to these can be convenient if you have a self-drive rental such as the ones found on the Zoomcar website. This option is way more feasible than opting for a Bangalore to Mangalore taxi. This educational hub enjoys a tropical weather and the days can get quite hot during summer.

BANGALORE TO MANGALORE BY CAR

The route, when travelling by car from Bangalore to Mangalore, is a picturesque one which winds through the Western Ghats and languorous coffee plantations that offer a soothing sight. Good roads and plenty of pit stops make up the 350 km from Bangalore to Mangalore. Car hire availability is plenty but nothing can substitute the freedom of opting for self-drive cars in Bangalore. Except for a short distance of about 45 km where you have to navigate the winding curves of the Ghats, the road runs straight and wide and the journey takes a little over 7 hours in a taxi from Bangalore to Mangalore.

The inclusion of fuel charges, insurance capping and taxes on all Zoomcar rentals comes in handy during such long-distance trips.

Abundantly blessed by nature with plenty of green pockets, Mangalore is an ideal destination for families and solo travellers alike.

Pilikula Nisargadhama which houses a water park, zoo, park, crafts village and science centre promises hours of fun for people of all ages.

Pick up a car rental from Bangalore to Mangalore from Zoomcar and head along the Bangalore to Udupi or Bangalore to Karkala route on your next holiday.
