Planning Bangalore to Pondicherry by luxury tempo traveller
Pondicherry is the favourite long weekend for Bangalore's young professionals and families who want a beach and a change of pace. The town spreads out — White Town, Auroville, Serenity and Paradise beaches are all some distance apart — so having one vehicle for the group saves constant auto bargaining. The luxury tempo traveller's reclining seats make the six-hour drive restful, especially on the return.
On the road
Hosur Road to Krishnagiri is a fast highway; after that the road to Tiruvannamalai and Tindivanam is two-lane in parts with village stretches, so steady progress matters more than speed. Tiruvannamalai is a natural lunch and temple stop. Inside White Town, streets are narrow and some are pedestrian-only in the evening; the driver drops you at the edge and picks you up at an agreed point.

- White Town, Rock Beach Promenade and French War Memorial
- Auroville Matrimandir viewing point and visitors centre
- Paradise Beach (by boat from Chunnambar) and Serenity Beach
- Arunachaleswarar temple and Ramana Ashram, Tiruvannamalai
