Bangalore airport taxis, outstation cabs and group travel — the ride you’d trust with your own family.
Kanaka Travels runs chauffeur-driven cabs, Force Urbania, tempo travellers and buses across Bengaluru and Karnataka. Verified drivers, clean vehicles, a fare you know before you book, and someone who actually picks up the phone at 4am.
We treat every trip like someone’s counting on it
Because someone always is — a parent heading to Kempegowda airport alone, a family visiting Bangalore for the first time, a team that has to reach Mysore before the session starts.
Verified, experienced drivers
Every driver is background-checked before they’re handed the keys to your trip, and they know the routes they’re driving.
Clean, well-kept vehicles
Sanitised and inspected between trips, with current fitness and permit papers on every group vehicle.
Pricing you can see upfront
No surprise add-ons at drop-off. Tolls, permits and driver allowance are spelled out before you confirm.
Someone to actually call
24×7 support that answers — for the 4am flight as much as the 4pm one. Reach us here.

Airport transfers, planned around your flight — not around ours
Kempegowda International Airport sits about 35–40 km north of central Bengaluru at Devanahalli. Depending on where you start and when you leave, that’s anywhere between an hour and two hours on the road — which is exactly why an airport run is the worst trip to leave to a last-minute app booking.
- Arrivals are flight-tracked. If you land late, the driver waits. You get their name, number and vehicle registration before you take off.
- Departures are planned backwards. We work back from your check-in time, allowing for Hebbal and the airport road.
- Luggage actually fits. Four people with four large suitcases is an Innova or a tempo traveller, not a hatchback. We’ll say so when you ask.
- Groups travel together. Conference delegates and large families go by Urbania or bus rather than a convoy of cars.

Four steps, no app, no account
Most of our bookings are done on WhatsApp in under five minutes.
Tell us the trip
Pickup point, destination, date, time and how many people. A flight number if it’s an airport run.
Get the vehicle and the fare
We suggest the right vehicle for your group and luggage, and quote with tolls, permits and driver allowance spelled out.
Confirm and get driver details
Once you say yes, you get the driver’s name, phone number and vehicle registration ahead of pickup.
Travel, and call us if anything shifts
Flight delayed, plan changed, extra stop — one number, answered 24×7, for the whole trip.
What’s in the number we quote you
Most complaints about cab companies in Bangalore come down to one thing: the number at drop-off didn’t match the number at pickup. Here’s how ours is built, so there’s nothing to argue about later.
- Included: the vehicle, fuel, and the driver’s time.
- Told to you upfront, billed separately: tolls, state permit charges for interstate routes, parking, and the driver’s night allowance on overnight trips.
- Round trips are billed against a minimum kilometres per day.
- Airport transfers are a fixed point-to-point fare, not a meter.
- Vehicle size and AC choice change the rate — a 9-seater and a 20-seater aren’t priced the same.
- Waiting time beyond the free window is charged at a rate we tell you when you book, never invented at the end.

What riding with us actually feels like
“Booked an Innova Crysta for an early airport run — the driver called ahead, was waiting when we came down, and the ride was smooth the whole way.”
Arjun T.P.Airport transfer“My parents flew in and I couldn’t be there to receive them. Kanaka’s driver kept me updated the whole time — that mattered more than I expected.”
Meera S.Hycross Hybrid, airport pickup“Needed a midnight pickup with almost no notice. They found a car, confirmed within minutes, and the driver was genuinely careful with our luggage.”

Yes, round the clock — including 3am and 4am flights. Arrivals are flight-tracked; departures are planned around traffic on the airport road. Details on the Bangalore airport taxi page.
Up to 7 with luggage: Innova Crysta or Fortuner. 8–17: Force Urbania. 9–26: tempo traveller. 25 and above: our 25, 35 and 40+ seater buses. Tell us the headcount and the bags and we’ll pick.
The quote covers the vehicle, fuel and the driver. Tolls, interstate permit charges, parking and the driver’s night allowance are extra — told to you when you book, not at drop-off. Round trips bill against a minimum kilometres per day.
A day’s notice is usually fine for a sedan or Innova. For Urbania, tempo travellers and buses — and for long weekends, Dussehra, Diwali and December — book a week or more ahead. Group vehicles go first.
Yes, on most routes — Mysore, Coorg, Chennai, Tirupati, Hyderabad and more — subject to availability. Share your route and date and we’ll tell you whether a one-way rate applies.
Every driver is background-checked and experienced on the routes they drive. You receive the driver’s name, phone number and vehicle registration ahead of pickup.
