If you’re travelling during rush hour, getting from New Delhi Airport to Anand Vihar by metro may provide faster transportation, ensuring you will catch your train on time. Also, the cost per traveller is very low, making it a great option if your budget is limited and you prefer to save on transportation. Keep in mind, however, that you do need to change metro lines twice partway through and they can get rather crowded; for these reasons, the metro isn’t as convenient as a direct transfer in a taxi.

Editor’s Note

Useful Tips
