Many thanks again!
Thanks. We don’t have any info regarding taxis. But you can get them from your hotel travel desk.
are buses available after the laser show? how can we reach chikkballapur after the laser show if we came there by bus?
I am not sure about buses from Isha. There will be autorickshaws to take you back to Chikkaballapur bus stand from where you will get a bus every half hour to Bangalore
