Transportation

Delhi has excellent public transportation options, including the Metro, local buses, and taxis. The Delhi Metro is the fastest and most economical way to get around the city. Be sure to plan for traffic; it can get congested during rush hours, which are usually from 8 am-11 am, and 5 pm-8 pm. A taxi from the airport to the hotel would cost around INR 500 and would take approximately one hour.

Useful Tips

If you have more time in Delhi, you might want to consider visiting the Lotus Temple, Qutub Minar or the Akshardham temple. If you're a history buff, the Red Fort and the Humayun Tomb are great options. You can also take a day trip to Agra to see the Taj Mahal.

If you have less time, consider skipping one of the food tours and visiting the Jama Masjid Mosque instead or exploring more of the local markets.

Airports

Delhi's main airport is Indira Gandhi International Airport(DEL), located approximately 16 km from the city center. The airport is connected to the city by the Metro, buses, and taxis.
