Hampi is about 380 km from Hyderabad, 7–8 hours by road. It makes an easy long weekend: leave Friday night or early Saturday, see Hampi over two days and drive back on Monday.
How to reach Hampi from Hyderabad
| Mode | Time | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Cab / car | 7–8 hours | Door to door; NH 44 to Kurnool, then via Ballari |
| Train | Overnight | A few trains a week from Kacheguda or Secunderabad to Hosapete Junction |
| Bus | 8–10 hours | Overnight KSRTC and private sleepers to Hosapete |
| Flight | ≈ 1 hour + 1 hour drive | Limited flights to Jindal Vijayanagar Airport near Ballari; check schedules |
By car, the route runs south on NH 44 to Kurnool and then via Ballari to Hosapete and Hampi. The drive crosses into Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka, so the interstate permit is added for a cab. Our Hyderabad to Hampi cab costs from ₹4,080 one way for the whole car, with pickup anywhere in Hyderabad or at RGIA airport.
By train, check IRCTC for the current overnight trains to Hosapete Junction (HPT); a Hospet to Hampi cab meets every train for the last 13 km.
