For parents and senior travellers
Easy transfers to and in Abhaneri
- Carry water and snacks, because there is little available on site and the highway stops are basic.
- Break the long drive. Ask your driver to stop at a clean dhaba or hotel for a rest halfway.
- Wear shoes with grip and carry a hat. Stone surfaces are slippery after rain.
- Ask the airline or railway for wheelchair or porter assistance when you book, not on the day.
- Pre-book the pickup from the airport or station, so nobody has to negotiate with drivers after a long journey.
- Choose arrivals in daylight where you can, and keep the first afternoon free to rest.
