Tirupati Car Tour Package

Just arrive at Chennai Airport or at Central Rail transit hub to hire a multi-seater and wade out of the morning traffic to reach the western outskirts of the city and catch the Tiruvallur district route that passes along the Tirupati State Highway to Chittoor district of Andhra. Hold on at any of the standard Motel highway Inn to complete your breakfast and then move towards the destination which will be just four hours from the periphery of the city. Carry enough number of mineral water bottles at your disposal to keep quenching your thirst and that of the driver! Not much longer before you end up at another highway Motel where you can refill the cans to continue your journey further.

On reaching the Temple town, look out for the best route shorter to the Hotel that you had pre-booked so that you get more time to relax and refresh prior you get set to move to the Balaji temple atop the Tirumala hills. You can either have your entry tickets for normal worship part of the package or pre-book a special darshan ticket with the help of your operator who could get it done for you. A special darshan ticket may be at your discretion as many package administrators both as per the request of the pilgrims at the time of booking. Do plan to wear plain light-weight clothing to manage the sweltering heat experienced at the hills at an altitude of 976 meters from the sea level.

The Lord of the temple is 9 feet and around 9 inches tall with the golden headwear and is supported by an 18 feet stone bottom that acts as a support to this ancient sculpture built in the 8th century by King Thondaiman famous Tondaimandalam regime. The highlight here is the Lord Venkateshwara Temple itself which is a 12-kilometer long distance of 3550 steps up the hills. That could either be covered by a vehicle on dedicated up and down the spiral road or by walk from Srivari Metta. While Sarva Darshanam is free for all, Divya Darshanam is a paid one, but VIP darshan is called L1 for high-ranked officials. The tonsure of pilgrim’s head is to denote the Lord that the sevaks will forego all his or her joy and want of materialistic greed related to money and kind. The general worship time taken is three to four hours while for free darshan it takes double the above. Tirumala also has good facilities to stay in lodge and dormitory for pilgrims who come in large groups by walk and stay for more than a day to take part in daily darshan for a week.
