It can be quite challenging to get around the city, especially when traveling from KOAA to SHM or vice versa. Booking a direct taxi for the journey might seem hassle-free, but it can also be very expensive.
One alternative is to take the Kolkata circular railway for Howrah and then walk across the Howrah bridge to reach Howrah station. Another option is to take a taxi from Shalimar to Howrah. If you prefer public transport, you can reach the R G Kar Hospital Bus stop which is just a 5-10 minute walk from KOAA, and take a bus or taxi to Howrah.
From Howrah, you can opt for the prepaid taxi or the Santragachi bound EMU to reach Shalimar. I hope this helps fellow travelers looking for options to travel between terminals in Kolkata.
