Departing from Bangalore by Bus 

Bangalore offers various ways to reach your FlixBus departure point, making it easy to begin your trip. Be sure to check your ticket for the exact boarding location and aim to arrive at least 15 minutes before departure for a seamless boarding experience. Here’s how you can get to your FlixBus stop: 

Namma Metro 

The city’s metro system is one of the fastest ways to get around, helping you avoid road traffic. Operated by Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL), it features two main lines: 

  • Green Line: Runs between Nagasandra and Silk Institute. 
  • Purple Line: Connects Kengeri to Baiyappanahalli, and K.R. Puram to Whitefield. 

Operating daily from 5:30 AM to 11 PM, Namma Metro is a reliable way to reach major transport hubs close to your FlixBus departure point. 

BMTC Buses 

Bangalore Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC) runs an extensive citywide bus network. BMTC buses — including comfortable Volvo services — link all major parts of the city. Majestic Bus Station serves as a central hub for many of these routes and is a key connection point. 

Auto Rickshaws 

For shorter distances, auto rickshaws offer a quick and affordable solution. Easily recognised by their yellow and green colours, they are a convenient option for getting to your FlixBus stop without the need for advance booking. 

Taxis and Ride-Sharing Services 

Taxis, Uber, and Ola provide direct and hassle-free travel across the city. Although more expensive than public transport, they offer comfort and convenience, especially if you are carrying luggage. 

For female travellers, Go Pink Taxis — driven by women and exclusively for women — provide a safe and reassuring travel option, particularly during late hours.

Getting Around Mangaluru 

Once you arrive in Mangaluru with FlixBus, reaching your accommodation or exploring the city is easy thanks to the variety of transport options available. 

City and Suburban Buses 

Mangaluru is well-served by numerous private bus companies that operate throughout the city and its surrounding suburbs. These buses also connect to smaller urban centres nearby. Most city buses depart from the Central Bus Stand behind the Town Hall, commonly referred to as the State Bank bus stand. 

Despite being run by different companies, the city’s buses use a unified numbering system which makes navigation easier. However, since routes and destinations are usually displayed in Kannada, travellers unfamiliar with the language are advised to use navigation apps or ask locals for guidance — most are friendly and happy to help. 

Auto Rickshaws 

Auto rickshaws are widely available across Mangaluru and offer a convenient option for short trips within the city. Fares are typically metered, especially for journeys in central areas. However, for longer distances or trips to the outskirts, rickshaw fares can be high — in such cases, buses may be the more cost-effective choice. 

Taxis and Ride-Sharing Services 

Ola and Uber operate throughout Mangaluru, offering a comfortable and hassle-free alternative to public transport. These app-based services are ideal for door-to-door travel at reasonable rates. 

In addition, white Ambassador cars and Indicas are commonly used as taxis, especially for longer routes or inter-city travel. Shared cabs are also available and are frequently used for journeys between Mangaluru and nearby areas.
