Here you will find all operators and timetables for a Bus from Trichy to Chennai

What are the most popular stations in Trichy and Chennai?

In Trichy, you will usually depart from Bus Stop, Tiruverumbur Train Station or Ponmalai Golden Rock Train Station, while in Chennai you will be arriving at Central Station Bus Stop, Perambur Train Station or Egmore Railway Station, but there are many more stops to explore in both locations.

How do I decide? Some tips and tricks from our experience

Are you having trouble deciding on how to get to Chennai from Trichy? With 6 connections between 40 Bus, Train and Car operators, it can be difficult to find the one ride that will make you happy. But we have some tips that can help you make the best informed decision. First of all, the best trip is always the one that meets all your needs, so make a list of all the things that you want from this journey and look for something that will satisfy all of them. Here we will go through some of the factors mostly commonly taken into consideration.

Look for the lowest price

Ticket price is usually the main concern: even if you can afford to pay more, why do it if there are cheaper options? Saving on the trip means that you can spend more on the vacation itself! Between Trichy and Chennai, you can pay as low as £3 with a Bus from Intrcity Smartbus.

Travel duration

Time is also an important factor. An earlier departure may allow you to see a beautiful sunset or relax before an important event. And remember, time is money, so paying more for a shorter trip may be well worth it. For longer distances, flights are without doubt the best options, but be mindful of airport times and possible delays: a high-speed train may end up cheaper and faster! Here the quicker option is definitely the Train from Indian Railways: you will get to Chennai in just 3h 55m.

Comfort makes all the difference

You should always take into account what your personal travelling preferences are. Is one hand luggage enough, or are you trasporting more? Would you like to have a snack during the journey? Can you relax in a busy compartment, or do you need space for yourself? Even among the same mode of transportation, different companies will offer you varying levels of comfort and amenities. The main operators connecting Trichy and Chennai are Intrcity Smartbus, Indian Railways and NueGo, but be sure to check what they have to offer!

Save money with deals, and always compare

One last tip? Even if you live in Trichy and Chennai is your only destination, it may be wise to check the offers from and to nearby cities or, if you are flyng, nearby airports. Check the trips from Tiruchirappalli airport or to Tiruvottiyūr, and look at flights from Tiruchirappalli airport, and landing at Chennai Airport.
