Recently the town of Jammalamadugu which is closest to Gandikota fort  also got railway connectivity due to the completion of Nandyal–Yerraguntla section railway line.
However frequency of trains on this line is very low.

Inside the fort there is no means of transportation except to walk by foot.
It is ideal to engage a guide as the fort area is huge.

There is a dam upstream (Gandikota Dam) and a dam downstream (Mylavaram Dam).

There is a Haritha hotel run by Andhra Pradesh Tourism department which has lodging facilities.
