For parents and senior travellers
Easy transfers to and in Hisar
- Hire one car and driver for Hansi, Agroha and Rakhigarhi rather than relying on buses.
- Carry water, a hat and any medicines; facilities at the sites are limited.
- Winter mornings can be cold and foggy, so carry a light layer from December to January.
- 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.
