Ground Transportation
Taxis
Pre-paid taxi services are the most common and recommended option. A counter is located inside the arrival hall, offering fixed-rate fares to Dimapur city, Kohima, and other regional destinations. Private taxis are also available outside the terminal, but it is advisable to agree on a fare before starting your journey. Ride-sharing apps like Uber or Ola have very limited to no service in the area.
Rental Cars
Major self-drive car rental companies do not have counters at the airport. The standard practice is to hire a car with a driver. These can be booked in advance through local travel agencies or hotels, or arranged upon arrival at the taxi service counters. This is a popular option for tourists planning to travel extensively around Nagaland.
Public Transportation
There is no formal public bus service directly to the airport terminal. The most common and affordable options are auto-rickshaws for shorter trips into Dimapur town and shared taxis (often Tata Sumos). Shared taxis are a budget-friendly way to travel to the main town or towards Kohima, but they may require a short walk to the main road outside the airport premises to be flagged down.
