Outstation route
Bangalore to Vellore Cab
Vellore draws visitors for many reasons: the Sripuram Golden Temple, the old fort, its well-known hospital and its colleges. A Bangalore to Vellore cab gets you there directly and waits for you, which matters most on hospital and family trips.
The route
How the drive to Vellore goes
Vellore lies on the Bangalore–Chennai corridor. Route planners take NH 75 and NH 48 for most of the way, with SH 127 on part of the line.

Measured from central Bengaluru (Vidhana Soudha) using OpenStreetMap route data. Your exact distance depends on the pickup point and the route the driver takes, and real journey times are usually longer once city traffic, ghat sections and breaks are added.
The route-planner figures are about 185 km one way and about 2 h 15 min of driving without traffic or stops. Getting out of Bengaluru often takes longer than expected, so build in extra time, especially if you have a hospital appointment.
Vellore is in Tamil Nadu. Interstate permit charges and tolls are extra on this route.
Things to see
Places to visit in Vellore
- Sripuram Golden Temple at Thirumalaikodi, a temple to Sri Lakshmi Narayani covered in gold and set in landscaped grounds.
- Vellore Fort, a large granite fort surrounded by a wide moat, right in the city.
- The Jalakandeswarar Temple inside the fort, known for its fine stone carving.
Vellore is also home to the Christian Medical College hospital and several universities, so many trips are for treatment, check-ups, admissions or visiting students. Temple and hospital procedures change from time to time, so confirm current arrangements before you travel.
Plan your trip
Same day or overnight?
The round trip is about 365 km. With an early start, a same-day return is realistic if you only plan to visit the Golden Temple and the fort. For hospital visits, which can run long, an overnight stay or a car that waits with you is usually less stressful.
Round trips are billed on actual kilometres with a minimum of 300 km per day, plus driver allowance, so a single-day Vellore trip fits within that comfortably. For a patient travelling for treatment and returning later, a one-way drop may be all you need.
Vellore also lies on the way to Chennai, and travellers sometimes combine it with Tiruvannamalai or Pondicherry on a longer trip.
Who it suits
Comfort for patients and families
For patients and elders, an Innova Crysta or Hycross gives easy entry, comfortable seats and room for extra bags and medical paperwork. A Dzire or Etios is fine for one or two people visiting the temple. Groups can book a Tempo Traveller.
