Family trip by tempo traveller or Innova
For a family holiday, one vehicle with a driver who stays with you for the whole trip beats juggling trains, cabs and luggage. An Innova fits a small family; a tempo traveller takes the cousins and grandparents too.
Tell us the dates, the places and how many are coming. Verified operators quote the whole trip, including the driver's stay and night halts, so there are no surprises on the last day.
For a weekend away, a hill station, a beach or a temple town within a day's drive works best. For longer holidays, one vehicle can stay with you for a week or more, and the driver knows where to stop for clean restrooms and good food on the highway.
Family trips: ₹16–30 per km with driver for 6–17 seats (as of Oct 2026). A full day of 250 km in a 17-seater tempo traveller, the usual pick, costs ₹6,800–8,400. Operators ask a 25% advance, paid to them directly.
