Train
Delhi is an important hub for India's rail network. This is where it is easiest to book. There is a ticket booking office for foreigners on the upper floor of New Delhi Railway Station; open daily. from 7.30 do 17.00, nd. close. You can also apply, having an unlimited train travel card, Indrail Pass, or to purchase it. The office is always full of people and sometimes you have to wait up to an hour. When purchasing tickets, the fee must be paid in a foreign currency (dollars, pounds sterling) or in rupees upon presentation of a bank transfer receipt; the rest is given in rupees.
The main ticket office is located on Chelmsford Rd, between New Delhi Railway Station and Connaught Place. The office is running smoothly, is equipped with 50 computerized workstations, but still, it is crowded here and you wait up to an hour for your turn. When entering, take your number and wait at the designated window. It's best to come early in the morning or after the lunch break; open daily: 7.45-13.50, 14.00-21.00; nd., 7.45-13.50.
You mustn't forget, that Delhi has two main railway stations – in Old and New Delhi. From the New Delhi Railway Station in Paharganja, it is much closer to Connaught Place. If the train leaves from Old Delhi station, keep in mind, that it takes a long time to break through the constantly congested streets of Old Delhi. There is a bus service between the railway stations in New Delhi and Old Delhi #6,1 INR. There is another train station at the southern tip of New Delhi, Nizamuddin. For some trains, it is the starting or ending station. Who is going to stay in Chanakjapuri or south of Connaught Place, let him get off here.
Recently, trains from Delhi to Jaipur, Jodhpuru or Udajpuru depart and finish at Saraj Rohilla Railway Station instead of Old Delhi. Saraj Rohilla Station is located approx 3,5 km northwest of Chonnaught Place, na Guru Govind Singh Marg. When booking a ticket, it would be good to ask, whether the situation has not changed. The exception is the new Shatabdi Express to Jaipur, which departs from New Delhi Railway Station.
COMMUNICATION
Delhi is a very large city, and the buses are very crowded. Another means of communication can be a taxi, auto-rickshaw or bicycle.
Airport
Getting from the airport to the city center or vice versa is not an easy matter, although this is what we expect, having in mind the many means of transportation. The pushiness of taxi drivers and auto-rickshaw drivers breaks all records here, especially towards unaware tourists, being here for the first time.
Bus EATS buses run regularly between the terminals and to Connaught Place (Ex-Servicemen’s Air Link Transport Service) (»3316530). The bus picks up or drops off passengers at all major hotels along the route upon request; ticket price 25 INR. Unfortunately, the bus doesn't go to Paharganju. From Connaught Place, the bus departs from the Vayudoot office, na Janpath, opposite the underground Palika Bazaar; runs from. from 4.00 do 22.30.
Coming up from the airport building, we will see the stand of EATS buses, right on the right. EATS buses are the optimal solution, albeit arriving late at night, it is proper to wait a bit (see the warning about pre-paid taxis in the Taxis section, below).
It happens at Connaught Place, that the auto-rickshaw drivers are guilty of sophisticated fraud. They turn into a side street, where a fake policeman in an official uniform, and even with a truncheon (lathi) stops the rickshaw under the guise of "Hindu-Muslim riots" in Pahargańju or anywhere else, which you want to get to. The end of the whole thing is as follows: the tourist is taken to some distant hotel, usually on Karol Bagh and has to pay a staggering sum, then another persuasion begins for the fastest possible access to the center, now on privileged terms, which really means a very exorbitant price.
From the airport to the New Delhi Railway Station, on the eastern side, that is Ajmer Gate (The gates of Adcher) and the Delhi Transport Corporation buses run regularly to the interstate bus station; ticket price 20 INR plus 5 INR for luggage. A bus leaves the airport from the Super Bazaar at Connaught Place #780, but tends to be very crowded.
