10 Oct 2026
Travelling with family, friends, a wedding party or your office team? A tempo traveller in Jaipur keeps everyone together in one comfortable vehicle – no splitting into three cars, no "which car are you in?" calls. This guide explains the seating options, how tempo traveller rent is usually calculated, what to check before booking, and the best group trips you can do from Jaipur.

Which tempo traveller size do you need?
| Size | Comfortable for | Good for |
|---|---|---|
| 9 seater | 7–8 adults with luggage | Large families who find an SUV too tight |
| 12 seater | 10–12 adults | The most popular size for family yatras and sightseeing |
| 17 seater | 14–17 adults | Extended families, friend groups, small office teams |
| 20 seater | 18–20 adults | Wedding guest shuttles, school groups |
| 26 seater | 22–26 adults | Large groups that want a mini-coach feel |
Tip: book one size up if you have elders, lots of luggage or a long trip. A 12 seater with 9 people is far more comfortable over 300 km than a full one.
Standard vs luxury tempo traveller
Standard tempo travellers (usually Force Traveller models) have AC and pushback seats. Luxury tempo travellers and premium models offer captain-style reclining seats, more legroom, charging points, curtains and better suspension – worth it for weddings, VIP guests and long Rajasthan tours.
How tempo traveller rent works in Jaipur
Most operators calculate tempo traveller rent in one of two ways:
- Local package (within Jaipur): a fixed price for a set number of hours and km (for example, 8 hours / 80 km), with extra hours and km charged separately. Ideal for Jaipur sightseeing or wedding shuttles.
- Outstation (per km): a rate per km with a minimum km per day (often 250–300 km), plus a daily driver allowance. Toll, parking and – outside Rajasthan – state entry permits are added as applicable.
Rates vary by size, season and how many days you need the vehicle. When comparing quotes, check that the same items are included so you compare like with like.
What to check before booking
- Exact model and seat count, and a recent photo of the vehicle.
- Is it AC throughout, including on hill roads?
- What is included: toll, parking, state tax, driver allowance, night charges?
- Minimum km per day and the charge for extra km.
- Luggage space – a roof carrier or rear boot.
