Bangalore to Varanasi Flights

But this ultramodern city, teeming with successful technological firms, is also known for its splendid historical and cultural heritage. Its major attractions include lush, verdant parks and the elegant, British-era Victorian monuments. So, along with a large number of business travelers, this charming ‘Garden City’ also attracts numerous tourists.

As a city of such immense importance, Bengaluru boasts of excellent connectivity with the rest of India through the Kempegowda International Airport. It has been operational as the city's chief commercial airport since 2008, and is one of the best in India. It is also one of the busiest airports in the country, as it caters to domestic as well as international air and passenger traffic to Bengaluru. The city is therefore connected by air to most of the major Indian cities, as well as to many international destinations.

In Bengaluru, traveling to and from the airport is easy as there are several convenient transport facilities available. The Karnataka State Tourism Development Corporation (KSTDC) taxi services and the Vayu Vajra Airport Shuttle Service are available for passengers traveling between the city center and the airport.

Keep in mind that Bengaluru is afflicted with serious traffic woes and there is a huge risk of missing flights if you do not plan accordingly.

This is the city where mornings begin with the chimes of temple bells and dusk fades in with the spectacular aartis. It is often called the ‘City of Gods’ and Varanasi is indeed an idyllic spiritual getaway. A visit to this magnificent city is an experience of self-discovery and an adventure at every step.

You can easily reach this city, as the Lal Bahadur Shastri International Airport is located approximately 26 kilometers to the north-west of Varanasi, in Uttar Pradesh. The international terminal of Lal Bahadur Shastri International Airport features two counters for check-in, three each for customs and immigration, and one for security. The domestic terminal features seven check-in counters and one security counter.

Traveling between the airport and the city is simple as there is an efficient bus service. Pre-paid taxis are also available to commute between various city locations, to and from the airport. In case you want to rent a car, you can also avail the car rental service at the airport itself. Interstate taxi and cab services are also available outside the airport.

Be wary of unscrupulous taxi drivers. Because of the huge influx of tourists, many taxi drivers try to extract higher fares, by following the longest possible route to get to destinations.
