Frequently asked questions

What are the major attractions in Amritsar?
If your trip to Amritsar is all booked but your itinerary is looking a bit empty, we can give you a helping hand.Stop by Golden Temple. It’s one attraction you’ll find on most travelers’ must-do lists. Mall of Amritsar and Katra Jaimal Singh Market are also close by and worth a pit stop.
What are the best road trip destinations near Amritsar?
With some great road trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to experience everything that Kapurthala, 30 miles away, has to offer. Soak up the sights starting with State Gurdwara, Moorish Mosque and Kanjli Wetlands. The locals will also likely point you toward Jalandhar, 45 miles away. If you can only see one thing here, let it be Pushpa Gujral Science City. (But we’re also big fans of T.R Enjoy World and Prithvi’s Planet.)
What kind of rental car should I get for Amritsar?
There’s no easier way to see Amritsar than from your own ride. Whether you’re hitting the road on your own or with some friends, we’ve got the right set of wheels for you. If you’d rather something small, why not hop into the driver’s seat of a compact car or a mini? These little runabouts are loads of fun to drive and will save you money at the pump. Race around the city’s noteworthy sights during the day, then make a stop at one of its top restaurants at night. Can’t wait to load up the car and explore the city’s surrounds? An SUV is a great fit for scenic road trips.
