FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions): Chennai Tirupati Tour Package

1. What is the dress code for the Chennai Tirupati tour package?

Strict dress codes apply at Tirumala. Men must wear a Dhoti/White Pancha with a Shirt or Kurta Pyjama. Women must wear a Saree or Churidar with a Dupatta. Jeans, T-shirts, and shorts are strictly prohibited for Darshan.

2. Does TourismBharat provide Darshan tickets in this package?

The package price does not include the cost of the Special Entry Darshan ticket (₹300). These tickets sell out months in advance. However, TourismBharat might assist you in booking these tickets if you confirm your trip well in advance.

3. Is this package suitable for seniors?

Absolutely. We prioritise comfort by providing AC vehicles for door-to-door transfers. However, please note that there can be long waiting times in queues at the temple. We recommend booking "Special Entry" for seniors to minimise wait times.

4. Can I customize the itinerary to stay 2 nights in Tirupati instead?

Yes, our Chennai Tirupati tour package is fully customizable. If you wish to skip the Chennai stay and spend more time in Tirupati, let our experts know, and we will adjust the itinerary and pricing accordingly.

5. How far is Tirupati from Chennai?

The distance is approximately 135-145 km. It takes about 3.5 to 4 hours by road, depending on traffic conditions leaving Chennai.

6. Are flights included in the cost?

No, flights or trains are not included. However, as a full-service travel partner, TourismBharat can book your flights from any major city in India at competitive rates.

7. What is the best time to book this package?

While the package is valid from October to March (the pleasant winter season), we recommend avoiding the peak rush of Vaikunta Ekadasi (usually December/January) unless you have booked Darshan tickets months prior. Weekdays are generally better than weekends for a quicker Darshan.

8. Is it safe to travel with small children?

Yes, both Chennai and Tirupati are very family-friendly. We ensure the hotels selected are hygienic and safe for children.
