Why hire a car with a driver here
Mangalore sits between the sea and the Western Ghats, with temples, beaches and churches spread across the city and the coast. The airport at Bajpe is on a hilltop some distance out, and many visitors head straight on to Udupi, Dharmasthala or Kukke Subramanya. A car with a driver makes these temple circuits simple, with someone who knows the darshan timings and coastal roads. It is also the easiest way to reach Coorg or Chikmagalur up the ghat roads.
