Good to know

  • On long days, drivers need rest. Operators usually plan one driver per 300–350 km a day; ask for two drivers for longer stretches.
  • Quotes usually include fuel, driver, and his food and stay. Tolls, parking and state taxes are listed separately. Yippigo shows each quote line by line.
  • Pavagadh is about 50 km away; leave early to avoid ropeway queues.
