Statue of Unity from Kolkata

The "Statue of Untiy" is one of the highest statue in the world and one of the most visited places in India right now. Its construction is tremendous. You will be speechless for a while after seeing this.

Here I am discussing that how to reach the Statue of Unity from Kolkata and it is more than 2000 km away.

1st option: -

Take a flight from Kolkata Netaji Subhaschandra Bose International Airport (CCU) for Surat International Airport (STV). Daily two direct flights are available from Kolkata, Indigo and Spice jet.

From Surat International airport (STV), you may take rental cab or AC BRTS buses for Railway station bus stand terminal (Surat central bus stand). AC BRTS bus will be better choice because It will take same time to the cab. This type of buses have their separate tracks on the road. Nobody can drive on BRTS buses track. So within 45 min you will reach at Railway station bus terminal (central bus stand).

From there, take GSRTC AC buses, specially for the Statue of Unity. the Statue is nearly 140 km away from Surat. The ticket will be available on GSRTC website and the fare will be 196/- per person.
But the bus will depart from Surat central bus stand at 7.00 AM and will reach at 10.30 AM at the Statue of Unity. So better, take a hotel at near to the Surat Railway station because you will get more option there according to your budget. Then next day morning you may depart for the Statue.

So, within three days you can enjoy your trip.

2nd option: -

If you don't choose air travel, then take a train up to Surat (ST). It will take around 30 hours. Don't take Howrah Ahmedabad super fast express, because it will reach Surat around 9.30 AM. So better, take Howrah Porbandar super fast express or Kaviguru Express because both will reach Surat at arround 5.00 AM. You may also take Malda Surat express from Durgapur. After that you may take the luxurious AC bus just outside the railway station towards the platform no 1 for the Statue of Unity. You will reach there around 10.30 AM. You may stay there inside the "TENT CITY".

3rd option: -

You may take a flight for Ahmedabad (AMD) from Kolkata (CCU). Lots of flights are available. You can choose according to your convenience. From Ahmedabad, it will be more than 400 km away. You have to take AC luxurious bus from Ahmedabad and it will depart at 7.00 AM.

Which option you should choose???

If you only three days and want to enjoy with family then choose 1st option.
If you want spent a good time with your family then I am giving the best advice for the trip arrangement.
Take flight for Surat or Ahmedabad, choose according to your ticket fare. But I think Surat will be more convenience compare to Ahmedabad, because you will get BRTS from inside of the Surat Airport and it will take 50/- for the central bus stand. If you want to enjoy the local function like Garbha then you should take 1N/2D TENT CITY packages according to your criteria. For TENT CITY room booking go through the Govt authorized site: - https://statueofunity.in/tentcity/
They will give you the all service.

LASER SHOW is the another advantage to stay in TENT CITY. It will start from 7.00 PM.

If you have more convenient option then please mention in the comment section.

Thank you. Have a great trip.
