There are many luxury buses running between Kerala & Bangalore. Semi sleeper, sleeper & VOLVO AC coaches are available daily from Bangalore to almost all cities of Kerala. These are non stop buses and stops only for taking food or filling diesel. KSRTC also runs daily buses to Bangalore. All these buses starts in the evening and reaches the destination in the morning and so it is very convenient to the passengers. Bus tickets are available immediately.
For north Kerala like Calicut & Kannur, bus is much faster comparable to trains because trains comes through long Coimbatore route, but buses can take direct route. The bus journey from Bangalore to North Kerala is amazing which passes through hills and forests.
