Local tip

AMD is 10km NE of Ahmedabad — one of India's shorter airport-to-city transfers. Uber/Ola is the tourist standard (₹300-600). Ahmedabad is Gujarat's commercial capital + UNESCO Old City (2017 designation). Gujarat is 100% VEGETARIAN state at government level — no beef, no alcohol in public. For 6h layovers: Gandhi Ashram + Manek Chowk street food. Note: Ahmedabad summer (Apr-Jun) hits 45°C+; October-March best visit.
