Recommendation
Depending on your budget and preference for travel comfort, flying is the most efficient and practical mode as it significantly reduces travel time. For a more economical but longer option, the bus is viable, especially with overnight routes. Car travel gives you flexibility; however, it requires substantial planning for accommodation and fuel stops along the way.
