Which order?
Independent planning guidance
Tirumala darshan time depends on the booking type and crowds there, and can run long. Doing Tirumala first and Sripuram the next day keeps the uncertain part from squeezing the second temple. Sripuram's long published hours make it the easier one to fit around.
Guidance from this website, not an official temple rule.
Day 1: Tirumala
- Darshan at Tirumala according to your booking.
