Plan my Guwahati trip

Getting to Guwahati

Usually the biggest line in the budget — and the one the estimate above leaves out.

Delhi → Guwahati

flight · 3h

₹5,500

1 way / person

Kolkata → Guwahati

train · 17h

₹600

1 way / person

Cheapest listed route is Kolkata → Guwahati by train. Return for two works out to about ₹2,400 — so a whole trip lands near ₹14,595 for two, travel included.

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