Ahmedabad to Singapore Flights

What's new in Ahmedabad

• May 2025: A Vande Bharat Express between Sabarmati and Veraval, the station for Somnath, was flagged off on 26 May 2025 and began regular runs the next day, covering about 438 km via Rajkot and Junagadh in around seven hours.
• January 2026: The last metro section, from Sachivalaya to Mahatma Mandir in Gandhinagar, was inaugurated on 11 January 2026, completing phase 2. Trains now run from Motera through Gandhinagar, with a branch to GIFT City.

Tips for travellers

For a short stay, Ashram Road and Navrangpura are central and close to the metro, while hotels near Lal Darwaja and Khadia suit a trip built around the old city. The metro's east-west and north-south lines cross at Old High Court, and the Janmarg BRTS buses run on dedicated lanes. Gujarat is a dry state: liquor is sold only against a permit, which visitors from outside the state can obtain at some licensed hotel shops on showing identity documents.

November to February is the season for walking the old city. Uttarayan on 14 January fills the rooftops with kite flyers, and Navratri in September or October brings nine nights of garba across the city and heavy demand for hotels. The municipal heritage walk starts early in the morning from the Swaminarayan Temple in Kalupur. Dress modestly at the Jama Masjid and the Sidi Saiyyed Mosque; women are not allowed inside the prayer hall at Sidi Saiyyed.

Tips for travellers from India

Serangoon Road is a useful short-stay base for Serangoon Road restaurants and the Downtown and North East MRT lines. City Hall works better for the National Gallery and riverfront, while Marina Bay puts the waterfront close by but separates it from the small shops around Tekka Centre. Decide which cluster matters before choosing a hotel; a place near an MRT entrance can be more useful than a central-looking map pin across a large road junction.

Changi’s MRT station serves Terminals 2 and 3. The airport branch requires a change at Tanah Merah for the East West Line towards town, while Expo provides an interchange with the Downtown Line. This distinction matters for hotels near Bugis or Serangoon Road. Jewel is on the public side of the airport, so a visit during a connection requires the appropriate entry permission and a return through departure formalities. Gardens by the Bay’s outdoor grounds and its ticketed conservatories need different amounts of time; a walk through the gardens does not include admission to every attraction. Keep Sentosa as a separate outing from the civic district, and group the National Gallery beside the Padang, Singapore River and nearby bridges into a day with fewer transfers.
