IGI Airport to Paharganj Taxi
16 km • 30-50 min • Available 24 × 7
Popular for: Backpacker hotels, New Delhi Railway Station connections
Paharganj is 16 km from IGI and 30 to 50 minutes away, sitting directly opposite New Delhi Railway Station. It is the backpacker quarter of Delhi, and most arrivals here are international travellers on a first night in India or passengers with an onward train the same evening. The Main Bazaar is narrow and crowded at almost every hour, so we agree a drop point on Chelmsford Road or at the station side rather than pushing into the lane. For travellers with an early train, we recommend booking a pickup with a wide margin.

Flight Tracking
We monitor your flight in real time. A delayed landing does not cost you the cab, and an early one does not leave you waiting. No extra charge either way.
Meet & Greet
Our driver waits at the arrival gate with a name board and helps with luggage. For Terminal 3 international arrivals we use the standard meeting point.
All Vehicle Types
Dzire for a single traveller, Ertiga or Innova for a family, Tempo Traveller and Urbania for groups of 9 to 20 arriving together.
24 × 7 Pickup
Red-eye landings and 4 AM departures are routine for us. Our office at Rajendra Palace is 15 km from the terminal, so backup is close by.

Additional charges: night charge ₹200 for pickups after 11:00 PM; extra km ₹14–45/km and extra hours ₹150–800/hr depending on vehicle.
