Last-Minute Tirupati Darshan – Offline Break & Free Darshan
Introduction
Visiting Tirumala Tirupati for Lord Venkateswara Darshan is a dream for many devotees. However, getting Tirupati Darshan tickets at the last minute can be challenging, especially due to the high demand.
If you’re wondering whether it’s possible to get a last minute Tirupati Darshan ticket, there are a few options available for devotees, including Offline Break Darshan and Free Darshan. Let’s explore these options in detail.
1. Offline Break Darshan Tickets – A Last-Minute Possibility
One of the best ways to get a last-minute Tirupati Darshan ticket is through the Offline Break Darshan counter at Tirumala. These tickets are available at the Vijaya Bank Counter, CRO Office, and are issued on a first-come, first-served basis. Here’s how you can try for Offline Break Darshan:
- Visit the CRO Office early morning: Tickets are issued based on availability, and the counters open early. Arriving as early as 4 AM to 5 AM increases your chances.
- Carry valid ID proof: Aadhar Card or any government-issued ID is mandatory.
- Limited availability: These tickets are generally given to senior citizens, VIP recommendations, and special category devotees.
Booking last minute Break Darshan tickets is a bit uncertain, but Padmavathi Travels can assist in guiding you to the right counter and helping you with the necessary procedures.
