British Airways has frequent flights to Delhi's Indira Gandhi International
Airport, 14 miles south-east of Delhi's city centre. After your flight
to Delhi, take a taxi into bustling central Delhi and start to explore this majestic
capital. Head for Old Delhi's historic treasures and Mughal Empire
monuments to get a real sense of historical Delhi. Then wander around the busy
Chandni Chowk market for a shopping spree, Delhi style.
Travel to/from central Delhi
After your flights to Delhi touch down, catch a taxi from outside the Arrivals
hall. Buy your prepaid voucher from the counter inside the airport - it's
much easier than haggling with drivers outside. The journey into central Delhi takes
around half an hour. When your flight to Delhi arrives, there's also an
alternative option for getting into Delhi: the Airport Express metro operates daily
every twenty minutes, from early morning until late at night, and makes several
central stops.
Best of Delhi
Once your flight to Delhi has landed, learn about India's history at
Delhi's National Museum. Explore majestic Mughal Empire landmarks,
including Old Delhi's Red Fort, impressive when lit up at night.
Catch flights to Delhi to watch the thousands flocking into Jama Masjid
(Friday Mosque) at midday prayers, and climb the minaret. Sample Delhi's
finest cuisine, from rich lamb dishes to Old Delhi's mouth-watering kebabs.
Before your return flights from Delhi, shop at the State Emporia complex for gifts
to take home from silks to gemstones and handicrafts. Or join the crowds and shop
for Delhi souvenirs like essential oils and spices at Old Delhi's bustling
Chandni Chowk market.
