How to get there by Air
If you are flying to Andhra Pradesh, you’ll have to fly to Hyderabad or Visakhapatnam. Hyderabad gets its air traffic from the Gulf and some cities in Europe, and figures on domestic routes to and from all the major cities in India. Visakhapatnam does not have an international terminus but receives many flights from Hyderabad, Delhi and other cities in India. There is also a minor airport at Tirupati.

How to get there by Rail
The main railhead in Andhra Pradesh is Hyderabad, which has three well connected stations including one at Secunderabad. Visakhapatnam and Vijaywada are on the main railway line that runs along the eastern coast. Both figure prominently as major junctions on the Indian Railways network. Another important station is Warangal. Tirupati gets some traffic from Mumbai and other cities in south India. Puttaparthi does not have a railway station but is serviced by the one at Dharmapuram.

How to get there by Road
Andhra Pradesh has land borders with several states. In the northwest lies Maharashtra, directly north are Orissa and Madhya Pradesh; in the south lies Tamil Nadu and to the southeast is Karnataka. There are several entry points from all of these states, and interstate buses run by the government as well as privately operated coach services are a dime a dozen. It is also possible to hire a cab or rent a car at big cities in the neighbouring states. Take National Highway 7 or 9 from Maharashtra; NH 9 passes through northern Karnataka before entering Andhra Pradesh. Coming through Orissa will give you a wonderful journey down India’s eastern coast. Take NH 5.
