Why hire a car with a driver here
Most visitors come to Tirupati for darshan at Tirumala, 22 km up the ghat road. The climb has timed checkpoints, and parking up the hill is tightly managed. A car with a driver who knows the Alipiri checks, the ghat rules and where to wait makes the visit calm, especially with elders or children. Your driver can also take you to the temples in the valley, Srikalahasti and Kanipakam, without the rush of shared jeeps.
