Mumbai → Ahmedabad

flight · 1h

₹3,500

1 way / person

Mumbai → Ahmedabad

train · 7h

1 way / person

Cheapest listed route is Mumbai → Ahmedabad by train. Return for two works out to about ₹1,600 — so a whole trip lands near ₹6,676 for two, travel included.

Fares are typical one-way estimates per person from Ahmedabad's common gateways, not live prices — book early and expect festival months to run higher.
