About the trip

Tirupati is the base for the Tirumala hill shrine of Lord Venkateswara, one of the most visited temples in the world. Many families prefer to travel by road so they can carry elders, luggage and offerings comfortably. The long drive runs through Kurnool and Kadapa. Most people rest a night in Tirupati or on the hill before their darshan slot.
