Away Delhi is India's major gateway for international flights and is a good place to pick up cheap airline tickets. There are domestic flights from Delhi to all major Indian destinations. The main bus station is the Interstate Bus Terminal at Kashmiri Gate, north of the 'Old' Delhi Railway Station. Popular bus routes head into Rajasthan via Jaipur, and to the hill stations of Himachal Pradesh. Delhi is an important rail centre and New Delhi Railway Station is an easy place to make bookings.
Buses are generally hopelessly crowded and driven by maniacs.
There are some seats reserved for women on the left-hand side of the bus. Negotiate a fare before you set out. Auto-rickshaws are generally faster than taxis on short trips and cost half the price. Negotiate a fare before you board and make sure your will is in order. Six-seater motorcycle rickshaws run fixed routes at fixed prices and are good value during rush hours.
