From the stone carvings and textile markets of Ahmedabad to the tech pulse and garden-city charm of Bangalore, this trip crosses western and southern India. The dry heat of Gujarat gives way to the cooler plateau of Karnataka, with new languages and cuisines along the way.
The two cities are about 1,235 km apart as the crow flies.[1] Compare options and book on GoAsia.cc.
Ahmedabad to Bangalore by Flight
Flying is the quickest way. IndiGo operates flights from Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport (AMD) to Kempegowda International Airport (BLR). The flight time depends on the route, and some services have a layover. BLR is Bangalore's only airport, and its domestic and international terminals share one building.[1] The airport lies well outside the center, so allow an hour or more by taxi or airport bus.
Ahmedabad to Bangalore by Train
Indian Railways gives you a classic overland trip with a choice of classes.
- 1A, AC First Class: lockable compartments and bedding, the most private option.
- 2A, AC 2-Tier: a balance of comfort and price, with curtains for privacy.
- 3A, AC 3-Tier: air-conditioned and popular with Indian middle-class travelers.
- SL, Sleeper: the cheapest class, without air conditioning and often crowded and dusty.
Ahmedabad to Bangalore by Bus
Sleeper buses suit those who like to travel overnight. Most coaches are AC sleepers with individual berths, and there are AC seaters for those who prefer to sit. Buses often leave from private pick-up points around Ahmedabad, so read your boarding point on the ticket.
Ahmedabad to Bangalore by Private Transfer
For a group or a lot of luggage, a private transfer offers door-to-door travel. It is the most expensive option and the drive is very long, so plan to split it over more than one day.
