Transportation Amritsar - Kalka-help

evicka

Dear Travellers,

looking for a help.
I will be in Amritsar on March 12 2007 and I would like to get to Kalka (by road/ train/ taxi with driver) by 12:00 PM as the toy train leaves at that time for Shimla. Any advice?
Many thanks... Evicka

There is a direct bus from Amritsar to Kalka .... see schedule here. starts 06:00 am and arrives 12:00 noon

The travel time is just 6 hours. Bus is better than train in this particular case. Allow for 20 to 30 mins to travel from Bus stand to Train station in traffic. Some buses directly halt at the train station also.... ask the conducter in the bus.
