Getting to Khajuraho

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

Delhi → Khajuraho

flight · 1.5h

₹5,500

1 way / person

Delhi → Khajuraho

train · 11h

₹800

1 way / person

Cheapest listed route is Delhi → Khajuraho by train. Return for two works out to about ₹3,200 — so a whole trip lands near ₹10,680 for two, travel included.

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