Best time to fly

The best time to visit Ahmedabad is during the winter months, from October to March, when the weather is pleasant and ideal for sightseeing. Avoid the summer months of April to June due to extreme heat. The Navratri festival in October is a particularly lively time to visit.

Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport (AMD) is about 10 km from the city centre. You can take the Ahmedabad Municipal Transport Service (AMTS) Airport Bus for around ₹50. A prepaid taxi to the city centre will cost approximately ₹300-₹400.

Things to do in Ahmedabad

Visit the Sabarmati Ashram, Mahatma Gandhi's former residence, a serene and historically significant place. Explore the Calico Museum of Textiles, showcasing a stunning collection of Indian fabrics. Wander through the old city, with its pols (traditional neighbourhoods) and intricate architecture. See the Adalaj Stepwell, an intricately carved historical water well.

Food to try

Try Gujarati thali, a complete vegetarian meal with a variety of dishes. Sample khakhra, a thin cracker made from mat bean and wheat flour, often eaten for breakfast. Don't miss the opportunity to have street food like dhokla and fafda.

Local tips

Bargain when shopping at local markets like Law Garden. Dress modestly when visiting religious sites. Be aware that Ahmedabad is a dry city, meaning alcohol sales are restricted.
