Plan my Lucknow trip

Getting to Lucknow

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

Delhi → Lucknow

train · 6h

₹700

1 way / person

Mumbai → Lucknow

flight · 2h

₹4,500

1 way / person

Cheapest listed route is Delhi → Lucknow by train. Return for two works out to about ₹2,800 — so a whole trip lands near ₹8,257 for two, travel included.

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