Passport/Visa
All foreign nationals entering India are required to possess a valid international travel document with a valid visa. A visa is required for most nationalities, except for Bhutan, Nepal, and the Maldives (if not arriving from mainland China). The visa can be requested through an online application process. This process is straightforward and must be done through the official Indian government visa application website. Travellers should not hire agents who claim they can expedite the process or guarantee a speedy/express grant of an e-visa.

Public Transport
The Ahmedabad Municipal Transport Service (AMTS) provides public bus services around the city. While AMTS buses can get overcrowded and stops are often not announced, passengers are advised to inquire with the driver about their destination and request to be notified when their stop is approaching. The Bus Rapid Transit System (BRTS) is a more modern alternative to the AMTS bus system and offers a faster and more efficient way to navigate central parts of the city. BRTS buses run on dedicated lanes, and modern bus stops are equipped for ticket purchase.

Taxi
In Ahmedabad, finding a taxi is a breeze, with numerous options available throughout the city. However, traditional taxis might not always use meters, so it’s wise to negotiate the fare before setting off. Alternatively, you might consider booking a ride through apps like Ola and Uber for a more convenient way to navigate the city. For a local flavour, why not hop on a rickshaw and weave through Ahmedabad’s lively streets?
