    A good way to cover both spots in one day is to leave early from Paderu, drive to Araku Valley, spend a few hours exploring the coffee plantations and the Tribal Museum, then head straight to the Borra Caves. The drive from Araku to the caves is about 30 km and takes roughly an hour, so you can finish the cave visit by mid afternoon. If you want a comfortable base in Araku, Casa Woods Resort offers easy access to the main road and is just a short walk from the town centre. Taxi or a hired car is the most flexible option, but local buses run between Paderu and Araku and then from Araku to the caves, though schedules can be sparse.
