For a morning aarti, arrive the previous evening so you're rested. For an evening aarti, arriving by midday is comfortable. Late-night arrivals (post-midnight) are bookable on TripSaffron — check-in is flexible for pilgrims arriving by overnight bus or train.
Most stations and airports have prepaid taxi counters and shared shuttle services. Always use the prepaid counter — avoid touts who approach you directly. Lodge owners on TripSaffron can also arrange a pickup; mention this in your booking notes.
