Car travels in Arundelpet, doorstep pickup.

Arundelpet is where Guntur shops. It runs alongside Brodipet on the same numbered-line grid but has a different character on the ground — retail rather than offices, busy through the evening rather than the working day, and almost impossible to leave a car in. Most bookings from here are people who have finished in town and want to start a journey rather than hunt for parking, which is exactly the job a waiting car does well.

Pickup tip — Give the line number and the shop or lodge you are outside. The main road is often impossible to stop on in the evening, so the driver will name the nearest side lane rather than block it.
