Arriving at Lokpriya Gopinath Bordoloi International (LGBI) Airport and wondering how to kickstart your Northeast adventure? Renting a bike directly upon arrival is the smartest move for travelers wanting to save time and avoid expensive cab fares. Here is your complete guide to getting a two-wheeler right from the airport.
Why Rent Near the Airport?
- Time-Saving: Avoid the traffic of traveling all the way into the city center just to pick up a bike.
- Cost-Effective: Airport cabs can be highly overpriced. Riding out on your rented bike saves money immediately.
- Direct Route to Meghalaya: If Shillong or Cherrapunji is your first stop, the airport bypass roads offer a much faster route than going through mainland Guwahati.
How It Works
Most premium rental services (like ours!) offer airport pickup and drop-off options. You simply pre-book your motorcycle or scooty online, share your flight details, and a representative will hand over the keys and paperwork as soon as you land.
Pro Tip: Always pre-book your bike during peak tourist seasons (October to April) to ensure your preferred model, like a Royal Enfield or an Adventure bike, is available and waiting for you.
