For parents and senior travellers
Easy transfers to and in Jalna
- Take a car to the gate of the Kali Masjid, since the old city lanes are narrow.
- Carry water; facilities at the sights are minimal.
- 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.
