Jaipur to Varanasi by Maharaja Tempo Traveller
12 to 17 passengers · air-conditioned · driver and fuel included
The Jaipur to Varanasi tempo traveller journey is an epic spiritual odyssey from the Pink City to the oldest continuously inhabited city in the world. Travel via Agra and the Agra-Lucknow Expressway, then NH-2 through Prayagraj to Varanasi. This 900 km pilgrimage is best split over two days with an overnight halt in Lucknow or Prayagraj. Varanasi's Dashashwamedh Ghat evening Ganga Aarti with thousands of lamps is a soul-stirring spectacle. The sunrise boat ride past 84 ghats, Kashi Vishwanath Temple (Jyotirlinga), and the ancient silk-weaving alleys of Varanasi are unforgettable. Sarnath, just 10 km away, is where Buddha delivered his first sermon — the Dhamek Stupa and archaeological museum are profound group visits. Groups can add a Prayagraj stop for the Triveni Sangam (confluence of Ganga, Yamuna, and the mythical Saraswati). The Banarasi paan, kachori-sabzi breakfast at Kachori Gali, and malaiyo (winter milk dessert) are culinary highlights.

In short
A maharaja tempo traveller from Jaipur to Varanasi costs ₹26 to ₹30 per kilometre depending on the seater, over roughly 900 km and about 14-16 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.
