India >> Uttar Pradesh

How to get there by Air

The state has four domestic airports at Lucknow, Agra, Kanpur and Varanasi. As the capital of Uttar Pradesh, Lucknow is well connected to the major cities of India like Kolkata, Patna, Delhi and Mumbai by domestic carriers as well as to the important tourist destinations of Khajuraho and Varanasi.

How to get there by Rail

Lucknow is an important junction in the Northern and North-Eastern Railway Zones. Superfast, express and mail trains provide many excellent connections to Calcutta, Mumbai, Chennai and Delhi as well as all the other main places in India. Agra, the one stop that no traveller to India misses out on, is connected to all major cities in the country. All the cities, towns and almost all the villages of Uttar Pradesh are connected by rail though the trains may vary from superfast to mail trains that halt at every little station on the line.

How to get there by Road

The state roadways buses aren’t all that great and the roads vary in quality and maintenance from good to very poor. But all parts of the state are technically connected to each other and to other important cities in the north of India. You can rent a car and drive into the state from all directions - while roads aren’t so great and neither is the general road sense, if you plan well the infrastructure enroute in terms of food and stay caters fairly well to the road traveller.

Getting around

Trains, flights, state and private roadways buses, rental cars, MUVs and mini buses are available to travel from one to another place within the state. The train service is the most convenient with comfortable superfast, express and mail trains linking all the important destinations in Uttar Pradesh. The road network links even the smallest of villages but the roads are usually in a poor state of repair and the State Roadways buses in ramshackle condition but the major centres lie along the national highways and are easy to access by road - by bus or private vehicle. Flights are available to and from Lucknow, Agra, and Varanasi and to Kanpur.
