City sightseeing by hourly cab across North India
36 cities · every price listed

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.

The honest comparison

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.

Questions people ask

How much does a local taxi cost per hour?
Local taxis are sold as hourly packages rather than by the hour alone. A 4 hour / 40 km sedan package runs from ₹1,499 to ₹1,899 depending on the city, and an 8 hour / 80 km package from ₹2,499 to ₹2,999. Agra is the cheapest at ₹1,499; hill stations are the most expensive because the terrain costs more in fuel and wear. Every city's price is listed on this page.
What is included in an hourly taxi package?
The package covers the vehicle, the driver and fuel within the stated hours and kilometres, plus air conditioning and GPS tracking. Tolls, parking and any state entry fee are charged at actual. Usage beyond the package — extra hours or extra kilometres — is billed at the published overage rate, not a penalty rate.
What happens if I go over the package hours or kilometres?
You are charged for what you actually use. Extra kilometres and extra hours are billed at the city rate — typically around ₹14/km and ₹200/hour for a sedan, more for an SUV. The driver tells you when you are approaching the limit rather than letting it run up silently.
Is a local taxi cheaper than an app cab for a day of errands?
For a single point-to-point ride, an app cab is usually cheaper. For a day with several stops and waiting in between — shopping, hospital visits, a round of meetings, sightseeing — an hourly package is almost always cheaper, because you are not paying a fresh fare plus waiting charges at every stop, and there is no surge pricing.
Can the driver wait while I shop or attend an appointment?
Yes — that is the point of an hourly package. The car and driver stay with you for the whole booking. Waiting time is included in the hours you have booked, so there is no separate waiting charge.
Which cities have local taxi service?
36 cities across North India, including Delhi NCR, Agra, Jaipur, Chandigarh, Lucknow, Varanasi, Amritsar, Haridwar, Rishikesh, Dehradun, Shimla, Manali, Udaipur, Jodhpur and Jaisalmer. Each has its own page with local prices, coverage areas and the sights worth combining in one booking.
How quickly can I get a local taxi?
In the larger cities we can usually arrange a sedan within 30 to 60 minutes. For a guaranteed vehicle — particularly an SUV, or anything during wedding season or a festival — book two to four hours ahead.
Are night bookings available?
Yes, the service runs 24 hours. A nominal night charge applies on bookings that run between roughly 10 PM and 6 AM, and it is quoted with the fare rather than added afterwards.
What is your cancellation policy?
Cancel a booking 7 or more days before the journey and the advance is refunded in full. Cancel 3 to 6 days before and half is returned. Inside 72 hours there is no refund, and the same applies to a no-show. Eligible refunds are processed within 5-7 working days to the original payment method, and the full terms are at /cancellation-and-refund-policy. If we cancel — a breakdown, a driver emergency, a road closed by weather — you get everything back, or an alternative vehicle or date, whichever you prefer.
