🚐 Pre-book an airport transfer →Getting Around
N/A (airport not connected yet) → Uzan Bazar to Khanapara / Inter-State Bus Terminus
💡 The metro doesn't reach the airport or most guest houses in the old city. Use it only if your guest house is near Uzan Bazar station. Buy a token at the counter — no contactless payment yet. Avoid during rush hour (9–10 AM, 5–6 PM) — sardine-level.
Guwahati Airport (bus stop on main road, 200m from terminal) → Paltan Bazar / Pan Bazaar / Uzan Bazar
💡 Buses are cheap but cramped. Look for red-and-white ASTC buses — ask the conductor for 'Paltan'. No luggage space; you'll hold your bag. Best for light-pack travellers arriving daytime. Night arrivals: stick to taxi.
Anywhere in Guwahati (including airport) → Guest house or any local destination
💡 Ola/Uber works well in central areas, but surge pricing hits during rain or late night. At the airport, walk to the pick-up zone outside the arrival gate. Drivers often cancel short rides — book an Ola Mini for reliability. Cash-only for most drivers, but app shows fare.
Guwahati Airport (GAU) → Guest house in central Guwahati (e.g., Paltan Bazar, Uzan Bazar)
💡 Use the official prepaid taxi counter just outside arrivals. Avoid touts inside the terminal. A ride to Paltan Bazar or Uzan Bazar typically costs ₹600–₹800, but confirm the rate before paying. For a guest house, ask the driver to use the main road — back alleys can be bumpy.
