Local Ownership & Trust
Travel with a local you can genuinely trust.
Atharv Cabs is based in Manipal. We move travelers, university students, visiting parents, and medical patients around Manipal, Udupi, and the coastal Karnataka belt — from an urgent 4 AM hospital pickup to a week-long journey across the Western Ghats.
The name comes from Shiva Shetty and his son Atharv. Because it is a family business, when you message or call, you connect directly with the operators who manage the cars and assign the drivers.
