What it costs
| Airport transfer (one way) | ₹2,299 |
|---|---|
| Local, 8 hours / 80 km | ₹4,499 (8 hr / 80 km) |
| Full day, 12 hours / 200 km | ₹5,699 (12 hr / 200 km) |
| Outstation | ₹24/km, 250 km/day minimum |
| Driver allowance | ₹400/day |
GST additional. Toll, parking and state permit at actuals. Night driving between 11pm and 6am carries the driver allowance a second time.
The 20-seater fills the gap between a full tempo traveller and a 40-seater coach. It still parks in ordinary hotel forecourts and still turns in Varanasi's outer lanes, which a bus does not. For groups of sixteen to twenty this avoids booking two vehicles.
Good for
- Groups of 16–20
- School and college trips
- Extended family yatras
Not the right choice for
Groups under fifteen. You are paying for empty seats — two 12-seaters or one 17-seater will cost less and split the group sensibly.
On board
- Pushback seats
- 14-bag bay
- Overhead storage
- Charging points
- PA-ready
