The New Delhi Railway Station replaced the Old Delhi Railway Station as the main railway station of the Indian capital in 1956. Since then, it’s been one of the busiest railway stations in the country in terms of train frequency and passenger movement. The two stations are relatively close to one another, so getting from Old Delhi Railway Station to New Delhi Railway Station is very easy and cheap by taxi or metro.
Taxis are available 24/7 for on-demand service, but you can also opt for a pre-booked ride to ensure more reliable service. The ride takes about 20 minutes in average traffic conditions and costs around €1.50 (INR 134) for up to 4 passengers. If you want to use public transportation and don’t mind a walk, the Yellow metro line is the best option to cover the short Old Delhi to New Delhi Railway Station distance. It requires some walking to reach the nearest metro station, so the total trip takes the same amount of time as taking a taxi but costs only €0.10 (INR 10) per traveller.
Welcome Pickups offers meet and greet services and a friendly introduction to Delhi at the same price as a regular taxi. Click here to see the cost.
