Dear All
I am here posting some tips to follow in Tirumala Hills may be which will help you all in Future Visits. Tips will be long and if u r bored please pardon me and skip this Tip.
Before reading these Tips please allow me to warn you without Online Darshan Booking which cost you 300 Rs and without Room Reservation don’t come Tirumala Hills. You can book these facilities in TTD Website where you have to Register yourself and then try to book before 30 Days.(If you have reservation in Tirupati...
more... then ok but without 300 Rs ticket your Darshan time will be very very long but u can escape it which i will tell you how to do it if you are interested.)
Now Some Tips:-
1. When you get down at Tirupati Station come out and Look Right where u can find a APSRTC Ticket Counter where you can get Up and Down tickets with Discounted Rate. (90+ 90 Rs one Elder ticket you can get at 160 Rs only But in bus u cannot get this facility and u have to book in Counter only where Rush will be very very less). That ticket is valid for 2 Days from taken date and time for one up and one down journey for a person or for a group. in between if u want to come down take separate ticket from Tirupati or in Tirumala which will cost you 90 Rs in Bus and Private Jeeps will charge you100 to 120/150 Rs.
2. When ticket was taken take right and see where you can find a FOB and below the FOB u can find Buses Direct to Tirumala Hills for every 1 Minute. (Always u can find 5/6 buses in Queue for passengers) No standing journey is allowed and when seats are full bus will depart immediately.
3. When Bus reaches Alipiri Toll gate all the passengers and their Luggage must be taken off the bus and to go checking at Toll gate. No Excuses are allowed. Don't carry Plastic Covers or Water bottles (Water bottles may be allowed.) After that u have to take the same bus and same seat and to go Tirumala. Remember the Bus number which you got in Tirupati.
4. After Reaching Tirumala go to your booked Guest house and fresh up. Taking Room in Tirumala is not easy which you have to book in Advance (Minimum 30 Days which fills very very Fast.) If you have online ticket u can finish your Darshan within 3-5 Hrs depend on Rush. In Tirumala you can have TTD Free Buses called as Dharma Ratham to roam in Tirumala only. But some places you have to go by walk which away to free bus route and Private jeeps will charge you Minimum 100 Rs.
