Tirupati rewards planning and punishes improvisation. Darshan slots, accommodation on the hill, tonsure arrangements and the drive up all need to be locked weeks in advance. We pair it with Rameswaram and Madurai so the trip earns the flights.
Best time to go — Year-round; avoid Brahmotsavam unless you want the crowds
