About This Trip

770 km and around 15 hrs 24 mins - that's the Varanasi to Ranikhet route. It's long enough that it's worth deciding upfront between an early single-day drive or an overnight halt, so we can plan the right driver and vehicle arrangement for your specific trip well ahead of your departure date. Our fare table shows exact per-km pricing for every car type on this route, with tolls and permit charges itemized separately in your final breakdown. GPS-tracked cars and verified, experienced drivers are standard on every booking we run. For comfort on a drive this long, the Innova Crysta is our recommended choice for most travellers, on every trip you book with us.

It's also a comfortable option for families, senior citizens, or anyone carrying extra luggage, since you're not restricted to what you can carry on public transport. That said, if you're leaving from Varanasi during peak hours, factor in an extra 30-45 minutes to clear city traffic before you hit the highway.

If you'd rather not plan the Ranikhet leg yourself, check out our ready-made travel packages, which bundle the cab with stays and sightseeing options so you don't have to coordinate everything separately.
