Situation is , neither I can book tour nor I can goto bangalore office with the people who are going to visit Tirupati .What kind of darshan we can book upon arriving at Tirupati ? What is the cost involed and time taken for darshan?
How is the accomodation, I was checking the TTD website in June mid week all room except 100 Rs are all booked...How are these 100 Rs room ? r they good enough to stay for 1-2 hours get fresh have bath and proceed for darshan?

It should be good enough to freshen up, if that's the only thinig you would need to rooom for. You could opt for the Rs 50/- darshan which has been detailed in the previous post.

hi,
if rs 50 darshan is not available when yu arrive or it has long waiting, there are also special sevas or rs.200 darshan, available at vijayabank counter on tirumala hills,, in any condition yu can do darshan with in 24 hrs..
rs 100 room is good, and three people can sleep in that.. but if yu are planning only to get fresh then one room will be sufficient..

its better yu book room online so that time is saved..

om namo venkateshaaya..

Hello Friends..

I have decided this program ..please let me know your comments..we are 7 people and going by Innova would be tiring , night driving plus costly..

- Train to Tirupati from Bangalore
- Stay in Tirumala and get fresh next morning (accomodation booked in adv)
- Get the Rs 200 darshan and have darshan..
- Same day depart to bangalore by 21:30 PM train...

I checked on website their is Rail cum Road ticket how can we book that?

avi.uvce · May 9th, 2009, 15:03

hi chits..
yur plan is ok..
yu dont need any rail cum bus ticket..
there are many buses from tirupati to tirumal.. from 5.00 am to 12.00 mid night....

yu just book yur train tickets to and fro... as yu do normally...

bus from tirupati to tirumala.. is rs.44 if yu buy for two sides..
or rs.26 if taken single sided..

there are also jeeps if yu want little comforts.. they charge rs.30

om namo venkateshaya.....

chits007 · May 9th, 2009, 15:22

for quick reply..
One thing Rs200 darshan ..how much time it would take ? and what about Rs 50 darshan since we are going in mid-week hopefully less crowd..what else to see and do there in Tirumala since return train is at 9:30 PM
