A car and driver for as long as you need
A local taxi is an hourly package, not a meter. Four hours and 40 km costs between ₹1,499 and ₹1,899 depending on the city; eight hours and 80 km between ₹2,499 and ₹2,999. Fuel, the driver and air conditioning are included, and the car waits with you at every stop — so a day of shopping, hospital visits or sightseeing is one price instead of a fresh fare each time you get back in. All 36 city prices are in the table below.

When an hourly cab is cheaper — and when it is not
An hourly package is not always the right answer, and saying so is more useful than pretending otherwise. It comes down to how many times you get out of the car.
Book an hourly package when
- You have three or more stops. Each app-cab leg is a fresh fare, and waiting between them costs extra on top.
- Someone has to wait for you. A hospital appointment, a government office, a bank — the car stays, at no separate waiting charge.
- You are sightseeing. Monuments are spread out and finding a return ride at each one wastes the day.
- It is wedding or festival season. App surge pricing is at its worst exactly when you need a car most. A package price does not move.
- You have luggage or elderly passengers. One vehicle for the day beats loading and unloading five times.
Use an app cab when
- It is one ride, one way. A single airport drop or a trip across town is cheaper on the meter.
- You need a car in five minutes. We can usually manage 30 to 60; an app can sometimes do better off-peak.
- The journey is very short. Under about 10 km with no waiting, a package is more car than you need.
We would rather tell you this than take a booking you did not need and lose you as a customer.
What an hourly cab costs in 36 cities
Sedan package prices, cheapest city first. SUV packages run roughly 40% higher. Fuel, driver and AC are included; tolls, parking and state entry fees are charged at actual.
Why the spread. Agra and the other pilgrimage and heritage towns sit at the ₹1,499 floor — compact, flat, short distances between sights. Hill stations such as Shimla, Manali, Kasol and Srinagar are at the top of the range at ₹1,899, because gradient, engine wear and slower average speeds genuinely cost more per kilometre. Metro cities fall in between, where traffic rather than terrain is what consumes the hours.
