Traveling from the U.S.

One of the easiest ways to reach Panchkula from the U.S. is by flying. Most journeys involve a transfer at one of India's major airports like Indira Gandhi International Airport in Delhi, or Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport in Mumbai. From there, you'll board a shorter domestic flight to Chandigarh Airport, the closest to Panchkula.

Upon landing, eliminate any stress by booking an airport shuttle service to whisk you straight to Panchkula. These private services offer that personal spacetime continuum we all adore – the joy of personalized pick-up timings and the luxury of luggage assistance! Your adventure in Panchkula begins the moment your flight touches down, sans the worry about transportation logistics.

Traveling from Canada

Quickest route? Hop on a flight! Like our U.S. counterparts, you'll most likely transit through a bigger Indian airport before continuing your journey to Chandigarh.

Getting to Panchkula by car

Once you're in India, if you're bitten by the road trip bug, hire a car and hit the road! It's a 5-hour drive from Delhi to Panchkula. Be prepared for a unique driving experience as highways in India often come with their own, shall we say, charming idiosyncrasies!

Traveling from Australia

For our Aussie mates, air travel is the most convenient option. Flights take about 15 hours, depending on stopovers. On arriving at Chandigarh Airport, a pre-booked private airport shuttle service ensures an effortless continuation of your journey to Panchkula. Remember, you're not just booking a ride, you're booking peace of mind!

Traveling from Asia

For those traveling from Asia, in addition to flights, overland options are viable, depending on your starting point.

Getting to Panchkula by train

From closer regions such as Nepal or Bhutan, train travel can prove much more scenic. Indian Railways offers numerous routes connecting to Panchkula.

Getting to Panchkula by bus

Alternatively, hop on a Unitiki or BudBus service. These buses combine comfort and convenience, making your journey smoother than a lassi on a hot day!

Traveling from Europe

For Europeans, flights remain the fastest way to reach Panchkula. But how about a rail adventure?

Getting to Panchkula by train

Once in India, use the RailEurope service to book a train to Panchkula. Trust me, rattling along the Indian countryside, watching the world outside your window melt from urban landscapes to breathtaking panoramas is worth the time!

Hey, I’m Evan! Even though I’ve been bitten by a piranha, left stranded in the Sahara when my camel ditched me, and even spent a night in a Bhutanese jail over a supposedly stolen fruit (I swear I didn’t take it!), I still love traveling so much I don’t think I’ll ever stop. With over 130 countries under my belt, I’m always on the lookout for the next wild adventure… hopefully with fewer bites, camel betrayals, and misunderstandings over fruit!
