Plan my Ukhrul trip

Getting to Ukhrul

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

Imphal → Ukhrul

bus · 4h

₹180

1 way / person

Imphal → Ukhrul

cab · 3h

₹2,500

1 way / person

Cheapest listed route is Imphal → Ukhrul by bus. Return for two works out to about ₹720 — so a whole trip lands near ₹4,517 for two, travel included.

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