Published on December 25, 2025

In a major step forward for tourism mobility and making the NTR district one of the premier tourist destinations in the world, the district administration recently launched the “Andhra Taxi” service. This new service is expected to help tourists have a safe, economical, and pleasant way of traveling in the area.

The mobile service was formally inaugurated at the Sri Pingali Venkayya Conference Hall inside the District Collectorate by Dr. G. Lakshmisha, the Collector of NTR District, who pointed out that this service is in line with what the state government has in mind to develop in the tourism sector. The event was marked by the presence of representatives of taxi and auto unions, drivers, as well as members of the tourism and transport department.

Ensuring Travel Comfort with Andhra Taxi’s Convenient Features

Dr. Lakshmisha stressed that the Andhra Taxi app has been specifically designed to ensure that tourists enjoy a seamless and comfortable travel experience while exploring the district. The app offers a range of features designed to maximize convenience and safety, including tourism information, secure transport services, and SOS connectivity linked to nearby police stations. These features not only provide peace of mind but also ensure that travelers can access reliable services at any time.

The mobile app has been crafted to offer ease of use, with booking options available through the app, QR codes, WhatsApp, and a dedicated website, providing travelers with multiple ways to secure their rides. By offering a mix of digital options, the platform ensures that tourists can access transport services quickly and easily, ensuring a smooth, comfortable journey from one attraction to another.

Curated Tourism Packages with Enhanced Comfort for Tourists

For travelers looking to explore NTR district more extensively, the Andhra Taxi app also offers specially curated tourism packages that cater to different timeframes and interests. These packages—ranging from one to four-day options—allow tourists to explore the district’s top destinations in comfort and style.

The one-day package, for example, includes visits to some of the district’s most iconic attractions, such as the Sri Kanaka Durga Temple, Kondapalli Fort, Bhavani Island, and Bapu Museum. With comfortable transportation provided through Andhra Taxi, tourists can move effortlessly between these sites, enjoying each experience without the stress of coordinating travel logistics.

For extended stays, extended tourism packages are also available, offering visitors a chance to delve deeper into the region’s cultural and natural beauty. The ability to customize the itinerary ensures that tourists can enjoy their trip at their own pace, enhancing both comfort and overall satisfaction.

Local Youth Trained as Guides for Enhanced Visitor Experience

To further improve the tourism experience, especially in terms of comfort and personalization, local youth have been trained as tourist guides to assist visitors. These guides are well-versed in the region’s rich history and cultural heritage, providing tourists with valuable insights that add depth to their visits.

By training youth as tourist guides, the district is not only creating new job opportunities but also improving the overall comfort and quality of the travel experience. This initiative ensures that visitors feel more connected to the region and its attractions, creating a richer, more immersive experience that enhances their travel comfort.

Taxi and Auto Drivers as “Tourism Ambassadors” Enhancing Service Quality

Dr. Lakshmisha recognized taxi and auto drivers as the “tourism ambassadors” of NTR district, highlighting their crucial role in ensuring quality service and warm hospitality for tourists. Drivers are trained to provide efficient and friendly services, ensuring that visitors experience smooth, comfortable rides throughout their stay.

These drivers are integral to the comfort of the tourists’ journey, offering more than just transportation—they become part of the visitor experience, helping tourists feel welcomed and ensuring that their travel needs are met with reliability and personalized attention.

A Step Forward in Enhancing NTR District’s Tourism Comfort

The launch of Andhra Taxi marks a milestone in the region’s tourism growth, combining modern technology with local hospitality to offer an integrated and comfortable travel experience. By providing easy access to safe, affordable, and convenient transport, the platform plays a key role in enhancing the overall tourism experience in NTR district, enabling visitors to explore the area comfortably and confidently.

The platform’s focus on comfort, combined with the curated tourism packages, aims to make the district a go-to destination for both domestic and international tourists. As more visitors choose NTR district for its diverse attractions, the app will serve as a key enabler in shaping the future of tourism in the region, ensuring that travelers experience the best in comfort and service.
