Amritsar to Chandigarh by Maharaja Tempo Traveller
12 to 17 passengers · air-conditioned · driver and fuel included
The Amritsar to Chandigarh tempo traveller route takes your group from the spiritual heart of Sikhism to India's best-planned modern city. Travel south on NH44 through the flat, fertile Punjab countryside, passing golden wheat fields in winter and swaying paddy in monsoon. Jalandhar, the first major city en route, is famous for its sports goods industry — cricket bats and footballs sold here are exported worldwide. Further along, Phagwara offers sugarcane juice and Punjabi highway dhabas with the best makki di roti and sarson da saag in winter. Ludhiana, Punjab's largest city, is a quick bypass. Chandigarh, designed by the legendary architect Le Corbusier, welcomes you with its wide boulevards, sector-based grid layout, and green spaces. Nek Chand's Rock Garden — built entirely from industrial and urban waste — is a sculptural marvel, while Sukhna Lake offers pedal boating and sunset views. The Rose Garden with over 1,600 varieties of roses is Asia's largest and perfect for group photographs.
In short
A maharaja tempo traveller from Amritsar to Chandigarh costs ₹26 to ₹30 per kilometre depending on the seater, over roughly 230 km and about 4-5 hours of driving. Fuel and an experienced driver are included; tolls, parking and state permits are billed at actuals. A one-way drop is charged at the same per-km rate as a round trip, because the vehicle still returns to base empty afterwards.
The journey
Amritsar to Chandigarh at a glance
Drive times are realistic door-to-door estimates in normal traffic rather than best-case figures. Hill sections and holiday weekends change them, and we plan departures around that instead of discovering it on the day.
