How to get from the airport to New Delhi

When it comes to reaching India's capital city from the airport, you have several options to choose from.

Option 1: The most reliable and fastest transportation in Delhi is the metro, which operates from 5 am to 11 pm. Conveniently, the airport building is connected to the metro system. You can reach the city center in just 20 minutes, avoiding traffic jams and unnecessary hassle. The ticket cost varies depending on your destination but typically starts at 100 INR.

Option 2: If your arrival time at Delhi airport doesn't align with the metro schedule, you can purchase a bus ticket at the terminal exit. Buses operate 24 hours a day, and the ticket price depends on your destination and any additional luggage you may have.

Option 3: Cab services are quite affordable in India, making them a popular choice for many tourists, especially those traveling with families or small groups, who prefer to book a cab from the airport to reach New Delhi.

In the terminal hall, you'll find designated counters marked as "cab." Simply state your destination and pay the fare to receive a receipt with the cab number assigned to you.

The pricing is structured as follows: the first kilometer of the journey costs INR 15, and each subsequent kilometer is INR 5 cheaper. On average, for a cab ride from New Delhi airport to the city center, you can expect to pay around INR 500 (with slightly higher rates at night).
