When traveling with a group of 8 to 25 people, the classic dilemma is whether to book multiple small cabs (like Ertiga or Innova) or opt for a single spacious tempo traveller. Group travelers across the country increasingly favor hiring a single tempo traveller for compelling practical, financial, and emotional reasons:
At Shree Ji Travels, we understand that a road trip is more than just transport from Point A to Point B—it is an investment in cherished memories with your loved ones. Operating extensively across Delhi, Noida, Ghaziabad, Greater Noida, and Gurugram, we have built an unshakeable reputation for reliability, punctuality, and comfort.
Here is what elevates our tempo traveller rental fleet above ordinary operators:
All our drivers undergo extensive background checks, possess verified commercial heavy-passenger vehicle licenses, and boast decades of driving experience across demanding mountain terrain and long-distance expressways.
Every vehicle in our fleet undergoes thorough multi-point mechanical inspection, interior deep cleaning, seat sanitization, and air conditioning filtration before every single departure.
No hidden surcharges or surprise terminal fees. We provide crystalline pricing that clearly itemizes per-kilometer rates, driver allowances, toll taxes, and state border permits upfront.
Our vehicles are outfitted with live satellite GPS tracking and speed governors for utmost passenger safety. Our 24/7 customer support control room is always standing by to assist you.

Every group has distinct travel preferences, group sizes, and luggage requirements. At Shree Ji Travels, we offer a comprehensive lineup of Force Motors Tempo Travellers and Urbania models customized to cater to every group size from compact families to large delegations.
The 9-seater Maharaja tempo traveller is the crown jewel of ultra-luxury road travel. Configured in a royal 1×1 seating layout, each passenger enjoys an isolated, individual captain seat with plush armrests, leg cushions, and dedicated cup holders. There is zero crowding and wide central aisle clearance.

The 12-seater tempo traveller is India’s most popular group travel vehicle. It offers the ideal balance between exterior maneuverability through city traffic or mountain hairpin bends and generous interior space. With a standard 2×1 seating plan (two seats on one side, single seat on the other), it easily seats 12 passengers plus the driver.
When your group size expands beyond a dozen people, the 15 and 16-seater models provide the ideal solution without requiring the leap to a larger mini-bus. Built on an extended chassis, these vehicles provide abundant head clearance, comfortable knee spacing, and substantial cargo capacity.
Figure 4: 18-Seater Tempo Traveller – Spacious high-roof design engineered for long-distance family and corporate group journeys.
The 18-seater and 20-seater tempo travellers are true workhorses for large family gatherings, destination wedding convoys, and corporate excursions. Designed with high-roof headroom, passengers can stand comfortably inside without stooping. The robust suspension system absorbs highway bumps and rough mountain roads effortlessly.

The largest vehicle in our tempo traveller family, the 26-seater mini-bus replaces the necessity of booking large, sluggish commercial buses. Despite its capacity, it retains excellent highway agility and provides every passenger with first-class comfort.
Modern tempo travellers are far removed from the utilitarian transport vans of past decades. Today’s premium tempo travellers available at Shree Ji Travels are outfitted with high-end amenities that rival business-class flight cabins:
One of the most frequent questions travelers ask when planning a trip is: “What is the actual per-kilometer cost of hiring a tempo traveller?”
At Shree Ji Travels, we adhere to a strictly transparent pricing policy. We believe our customers deserve clear, upfront rate cards without surprise extra charges. The standard billing structure in the Indian travel industry is calculated on a per-kilometer basis subject to a standard minimum daily running average of 250 kilometers.
Below is our comprehensive, transparent rate matrix for outstation journeys:
Standard Inclusions: Well-maintained private tempo traveller, verified commercial driver, fuel (diesel), and routine vehicle maintenance.
Extra / Variable Costs: Inter-state commercial border road taxes (Green Tax/State Tax), highway FASTag toll charges, and local vehicle parking fees charged at monument/hotel parking sites are charged at actuals or can be bundled into a customized, all-inclusive package price!
Delhi NCR serves as the ultimate gateway to Northern and Central India. With world-class expressways like the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway, Yamuna Expressway, Eastern Peripheral Expressway, and Delhi-Meerut Expressway, road trips in a luxury tempo traveller are faster and more comfortable than ever.
Here are the most popular outstation routes our clients love:
Figure 6: Outstation Tour by Tempo Traveller – Exploring the royal heritage of Jaipur, Rajasthan with seamless expressway comfort.
The newly opened stretch of the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway has slashed travel time to Jaipur to just under 4 hours. A 3-day or 5-day tempo traveller package lets your group visit Amer Fort, Hawa Mahal, City Palace, Nahargarh, and Chokhi Dhani comfortably. For longer holidays, our fleet regularly operates across the full Rajasthan circuit encompassing Pushkar, Ajmer, Udaipur, Jodhpur, and Jaisalmer.
Traversing the ultra-smooth Yamuna Expressway, this 2-day or 3-day spiritual and historic itinerary is a favorite for families. Experience the Banke Bihari Temple, Prem Mandir in Vrindavan, Krishna Janmabhoomi in Mathura, and the world-wonder Taj Mahal and Agra Fort in Agra without the hassle of changing trains or carrying heavy luggage between stations.
Escape the summer plains with an exhilarating mountain tour to Himachal Pradesh. Experience Solang Valley, Rohtang Pass, Atal Tunnel, Mall Road Manali, and Kufri in Shimla. Our experienced hill-road chauffeurs understand high-altitude mountain navigation, ensuring a safe, smooth, and breathtakingly scenic journey for all passengers.
Whether you are attending the divine evening Ganga Aarti at Har Ki Pauri, indulging in thrilling river rafting and bungee jumping in Rishikesh, or relaxing amidst the mist-covered hills of Queen of Hills Mussoorie, a tempo traveller on rent is the most versatile vehicle for this versatile route.
The Char Dham pilgrimage is a sacred milestone for millions of devotees. Because the route involves strenuous mountain driving spanning 10 to 12 days, traveling in a cramped car causes extreme exhaustion. Our heavy-duty 12-seater and 16-seater tempo travellers feature modified suspensions, high ground clearance, and dedicated mountain drivers specifically trained for the Himalayan slopes.
Thousands of devotees travel from Delhi NCR every weekend to seek blessings at Khatu Shyam Ji and Salasar Balaji in Rajasthan. With a dedicated 2-day weekend tempo traveller package, your family enjoys doorstep pickup on Friday night or Saturday morning and returns comfortably by Sunday evening.

Yes, the air conditioner works seamlessly on expressways and normal highway terrain. However, while navigating steep, narrow mountain ascents, drivers temporarily turn off the AC to prevent engine overheating and maintain optimal vehicle horsepower. Once gentle mountain roads or flat valleys are reached, the AC is resumed.
For regular weekend getaways, booking 3 to 5 days in advance is sufficient. However, during peak holiday seasons, summer vacations (May-June), long festival weekends (Diwali, Holi, New Year), and wedding muhurat dates, we strongly recommend reserving your tempo traveller at least 2 to 3 weeks ahead to secure your preferred vehicle model.
