    If you’re planning to hit both sites in one day, it helps to start very early. The drive from Paderu to Araku takes around two hours, then the next leg to the Borra Caves is only about an hour. A private taxi gives you flexibility, especially if you want to pause in Araku for coffee plantation tours or a quick lunch before heading to the caves. If you prefer public transport, the local buses run from Paderu to Araku, but you’ll need to check the schedule for the bus that continues toward the caves, as it can be infrequent. Once you’re in Araku, Casa Woods Resort is a convenient base; it’s close to the main road and the town centre, making the transition to the caves smoother.
