    I require some help from the forum to finding me a suitable bus from Chennai to Coimbatore. There are few things which are would like when choosing the bus and bus service.

    I would like to bus preferably to be a Volvo bus but not necessary, as long as it should be an AC bus.

    I would like the travel on a bus which is comfortable, as the journey would be long.

    I need to know where to depart the bus from in Chennai and where it would arrive in Coimbatore.

    • SRM Bus Terminus Address - No. 1/1, 100 Feet Road, Near CMBT Bus Stand, Opposite Adyar Ananda Bhavan, Koyambedu, Chennai, 600107.
    • Koyambedu Omni Bus Stand Address - G7 - G8, Sriji Commercial Complex, Koyambedu, Chennai, 600107.
    Then, they arrive in the Omni Bus Stand in Coimbatore:
    • Omni Bus Stand Coimbatore Address - NH 209, Doctor's Colony, Gandipuram, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu 641012.

    I hope this helps.
