The essentials
Varanasi Airport and Railway Station Taxi
Lal Bahadur Shastri International Airport (VNS) is at Babatpur, about 26 km north-west of the city, and the drive to the ghats and the old city usually takes 45 minutes to an hour. A pre-booked cab means the driver is expecting you and the fare is agreed before you land.
We do transfers in both directions, at any hour: a pickup when you arrive, or a drop for an early flight. The same applies at the railway stations, Varanasi Junction, Varanasi City, Banaras (Manduadih) and Mughalsarai (DDU), which are used by different trains and are far apart, so tell us the exact station and the train.
Coming for a longer stay? The same cab can take you on a day of sightseeing, or on to Ayodhya and Prayagraj. Ask when you book a transfer and we will plan it together.
