Where people go from Varanasi
Road distances, not map distances. Each one shows what the trip actually bills at after the 250 km per day minimum is applied.
If a vehicle is not what you need
We rent vehicles by the kilometre and by the day. If you would rather buy a planned itinerary — hotels, guide, boat and temple timings arranged around the driving — Kashi Rides builds tour packages and multi-day itineraries for Varanasi and the circuit around it.
If you specifically want a Force Urbania rather than a tempo traveller, and want VIP darshan arranged alongside it, Urbania Varanasi Cabs does only that and nothing else.
Questions we actually get
- What does a tempo traveller cost per km in Varanasi?
- Between ₹23 and ₹30 per kilometre depending on size. A 17-seater is ₹23/km, a 12-seater ₹24/km, a 20-seater ₹24/km and a 26-seater ₹30/km. All outstation bookings carry a 250 km per day minimum, and driver allowance, toll, parking and state permit are charged at actuals on top.
- Why is the 17-seater cheaper per km than the 12-seater?
- Volume. We run more 17-seaters than any other size, so utilisation is higher and the rate is lower — ₹23/km against ₹24/km. If your group is between twelve and seventeen people, the 17-seater is both roomier and cheaper.
- Is the driver's food and stay included?
- No. Driver allowance is separate and ranges from ₹250 a day for a Swift Dzire to ₹700 a day for a 49-seater bus. It is shown on every vehicle page next to the per-km rate. It covers the driver's meals and accommodation on multi-day trips.
- What is the 250 km per day minimum?
- On outstation bookings you are billed for at least 250 km per day even if you travel less. A two-day Ayodhya trip covering 440 km of actual road is billed at 500 km, because the vehicle is committed to you for both days.
- Can a tempo traveller reach Kashi Vishwanath temple?
- No vehicle of any size reaches the temple itself. The nearest vehicle point is Godowlia crossing, roughly a ten-minute walk through Vishwanath Gali. Cars can get slightly closer than a tempo traveller, but everyone walks the final stretch — this is a municipal restriction, not an operator limitation.
- Do you charge extra on Dev Deepawali and festival dates?
- Rates are the same, but availability is not. Dev Deepawali falls on 24 November 2026 and vehicles are typically committed six to eight weeks ahead. Book early rather than expecting a festival surcharge to buy you a vehicle on the day.
