When is the bus a good choice
The city bus works best for solo travellers, students and couples with light bags who live along one of the routes above, such as Miyapur, Kukatpally, Ameerpet, Koti or Dilsukhnagar. For families with small children or elderly parents, the long ride and crowded buses can be tiring, and a cab or a direct tour bus is more comfortable.
