The essentials
Hire a Tempo Traveller in Varanasi for Your Group
The Tempo Traveller is a mini bus, and it is what a large family, a pilgrim party or an office group hires when a car is too small. It is air-conditioned and comes in 10, 12, 15 and 17 seats, with 20 and 26 seater vehicles arranged on request. Our fares are for a vehicle that takes up to 17 people.
It works well for the Buddhist circuit and for the religious and pilgrimage tours out of Varanasi, such as Ayodhya, Prayagraj and Bodh Gaya, where a group would otherwise need two or three cars. It is also the usual vehicle for a group meeting a train or a flight, and for a full day of Kashi darshan and Sarnath. Everyone travels together, and there is one vehicle to coordinate.
Fares are per vehicle, not per person: ₹2,000 for a station transfer, ₹2,500 for the airport, ₹6,500 for a full day in Varanasi, ₹9,000 to Prayagraj and ₹13,500 to Ayodhya. The full table is below.
For six or seven people, an Innova Crysta or an Ertiga costs less, and for up to ten a Force Cruiser may do. For more than 26, see the Volvo bus.
| Vehicle | Tempo Traveller, air-conditioned |
|---|---|
| Seats | 10, 12, 15 or 17 (fares shown for up to 17); 20 and 26 on request |
| Best for | Groups of 10 to 17, families and pilgrim parties |
| Trips | Airport and station transfers, sightseeing, and pilgrimage trips |
| Fare | Per vehicle, not per person. From ₹2,000 for a station transfer to ₹20,000 for Lucknow |
| Booking | On WhatsApp or by phone |
One vehicle for the group
Ten to seventeen people travel together, so nobody is left waiting for a second car, and the group stays in one place at every stop.
Room for luggage
A group of this size has a lot of bags. The Tempo Traveller carries them with the passengers, which two or three cars would not.
Air-conditioned
All our Tempo Travellers are AC, which matters on the long drives in the summer.
Shared cost, lower per head
Because the fare is for the whole vehicle, it works out lower per person the fuller the vehicle is, and it is usually less than hiring several cars for the same group.
The pilgrim circuits
Well suited to Ayodhya, Prayagraj, Bodh Gaya and the Buddhist circuit, where a group visits several places over a day or two.
Stations and the airport
A group arriving by train or by air can be met by one vehicle. Mughalsarai (DDU) is a longer transfer, so it has its own fare.

Who it is for
When to Hire a Tempo Traveller in Varanasi
A Tempo Traveller earns its place when a group would otherwise split across two or three cars. These are the trips it is hired for most.
Tempo Traveller for pilgrimage tours
Kashi darshan, then Prayagraj, Ayodhya, Vindhyachal or Bodh Gaya, with the whole party in one vehicle and one driver who knows the temple parking and timings. A day in Prayagraj is ₹9,000, and Ayodhya is ₹13,500, for the full vehicle.
Tempo Traveller for family trips and weddings
Relatives arriving by train for a wedding, a family reunion, or a baraat that has to reach the venue together. One pickup, one vehicle, and nobody left behind at the station.
Tempo Traveller for corporate and school groups
An office outing, a conference group or a school or college tour. A single vehicle is easier to coordinate and to invoice than several cars, and we confirm the vehicle and fare before the trip.
Tempo Traveller for airport and station transfers
A group arriving at Lal Bahadur Shastri Airport or a railway station is met by one vehicle with room for the luggage. The airport transfer is ₹2,500 and a station transfer is ₹2,000, per vehicle.
Tempo Traveller for Varanasi sightseeing
A full day with a driver for the temples, BHU and Sarnath, ending with the Ganga Aarti. The full-day fare is ₹6,500 for the vehicle, which for a group of ten or more usually costs less than two or three cars.
Tempo Traveller for outstation drives
For Lucknow, Bodh Gaya and the longer routes, the vehicle and driver are yours for the trip, with the fare agreed in advance. See the full list of cab services for other routes.
Choosing the vehicle
Tempo Traveller or a Car? Which Vehicle for Your Group Size
Our fleet runs from a four-seat sedan to a 55-seat bus. This is the vehicle we would suggest for each group size.
| Group size | Vehicle | Why |
|---|---|---|
| 1 to 4 people | Swift Dzire (sedan) | Couples and small families |
| 5 or 6 people | Toyota Innova Crysta | Families with luggage |
| 7 people | Maruti Suzuki Ertiga | A larger family on a budget |
| 8 to 10 people | Force Cruiser | A group of up to ten |
| 10 to 17 people | Tempo Traveller | One AC vehicle for the whole group; 20 and 26 seaters on request |
| More than 26 people | Volvo Bus | Large tourist and family groups |
A Worked Example: 12 People to Ayodhya
Twelve people in an Innova Crysta (up to 6 each) need two cars, which is ₹19,000 for the Ayodhya day trip. One Tempo Traveller does the same trip for ₹13,500, and the group travels together instead of in two cars. Fares are as published above and confirmed on WhatsApp for your dates.
Pickup and drop
Tempo Traveller Pickup Points in Varanasi
We pick up your group wherever it arrives, and drop it wherever the trip ends.
- Lal Bahadur Shastri International Airport. The airport transfer fare is shown in the fare table above.
- Varanasi Junction (Cantt) and Banaras (Manduadih) railway stations. The station fare is shown in the fare table above.
- Mughalsarai (Pt. Deen Dayal Upadhyaya) Junction. A longer transfer, so it has its own fare.
- Your hotel or guesthouse in Cantt, Sigra, Lanka, Godowlia, Assi or Sarnath.
A Tempo Traveller is too wide for the narrow lanes around the ghats and the Kashi Vishwanath temple. If your stay is in the old city, tell us the name and we meet your group at the nearest point the vehicle can reach, and plan the walk from there.
