Travel to hyderabad by road..

hi friends,
i need to travel to hyderabad on 31st of this month. on such a short notice, i didn't get the train tickets, so decided to travel by road.

i would request you to suggest the options herein, with regard to the types of buses available, how much time it takes and the overall comfort of bus-travel...i am not sure because so far i have travelled to hyd, by trains.

thanks in advance,
anirban

KSRTC operates the overnight volve buses which take 10 hrs journey time. You can book these at http://ksrtc.in/. Once you register yourself as a user, it is equivalent to booking train tickets on IRCTC.....one major difference being you will need to select departure time slots one by one ( try 18.00 to 20.00 hrs followed by the 2000-22.00 hrs) + Airavath Volvo in the drop downcool to get the various buses. Normally , booking for KSRTC buses open only 1 week in advance....so you should go online today /tomorrow latest to avoid sellout
