Mahabalipuram to Puducherry, Bus A/C Semi Sleeper, NueGo, Jun 10, 2026

Communication with the operator was difficult and inaccurate - including telling me at one stage that my booking had been cancelled: it had not. Information regarding the pickup point at Mahabalipuram was hard to verify, and when the pickup time was more than 30 minutes overdue, trying to get an updated ETA was also very difficult. The bus finally appeared at the same time that the chat support service was telling us the bus was still delayed. When we boarded the bus we were glad that it was clean and comfortable, but the driving was awful. Very erratic, veneering from side to side, and sudden, sharp breaking. I cannot recommend this service.
