Guntur
The municipal
corporation of Guntur (also referred to as "Guntur City") is located
on the plains, 40 miles west of Bay of Bengal on the east coast
region of India. It is one of the major cities in the Indian state
of Andhra Pradesh. Its district is surrounded by the River Krishna,
where it merges into the ocean.
Buses, Trains and Airlines are available to go to Guntur from
different cities of India.
By plane
There are now flights to Vijayawada from Hyderabad, Chennai and
Bangalore. Vijayawada is less than a hour bus ride away.
One can also use a flight (National or International) to Hyderabad
airport and take a train (4 to 5 hour travel) to Guntur. For other
international connections, Chennai can also be used which is an 8
hour train ride from Guntur City.
By train
There are plenty of trains available at the Vijayawada Station to
get to any part of the country and Guntur also has a railway station
but with less frequent trains. So, one can plan for a train to
Vijayawada and get to guntur by bus. Local (suburban) train travel
is available between Guntur, Vijayawada and Tenali.
By bus
Local city buses are run by state owned APSRTC and also private City
buses are also there. They cover not only the entire city region,
but also the suburban and near by rural areas with a bit low
frequency.
Deluxe buses -- travel to longer distances with in the state
as well outside the state, for example to Hyderabad and Bangalore.
Private buses -- many private buses travel across the region
covering both center city, suburban and rural areas. But the draw
back of the private buses is that they don't maintain good
schedules.
