Private car and driver
By Experience My India Editorial Team
Destination specialists and licensed local guides
A private car and driver for the length of your trip is the default way most of our itineraries move — across cities, into national parks, and on long desert or mountain roads — rather than a series of separate point-to-point taxi bookings, and it is standard on essentially every one of our tour packages.
One car, one driver, the whole trip
Across Rajasthan's long desert drives, Kashmir and Ladakh's mountain roads, and South India's temple-town hops, a private car and the same driver throughout is simpler and more comfortable than switching vehicles or booking taxis leg by leg. It is standard on nearly every tour package on this site, and available as a stand-alone booking if you are planning your own route.
What's included
- A private vehicle sized to your group (sedan, SUV or larger, depending on party size and terrain)
- A trained driver for the full itinerary, not a different one each day
- Fuel, tolls, driver allowance and state taxes
- Flexibility to adjust the day's stops as you go, within reason
When a private car makes the biggest difference
Long desert and mountain drives — Jodhpur to Jaisalmer, or the Leh–Nubra–Pangong loop — are genuinely long days, and a driver who knows the road and the honest timings makes them far more comfortable than an unfamiliar rental.
Frequently asked questions
Can I book a private car and driver without a full tour package?
Yes — tell us your route and dates and we will quote it as a stand-alone service.
Is the same driver with me the whole trip?
Generally, yes, for a single-region itinerary. On longer multi-region trips involving a flight between regions, a new driver picks up at the next city.
What kind of vehicle should I expect?
A sedan for smaller groups on paved roads, an SUV for rougher terrain like Ladakh or desert stretches, and a larger vehicle for bigger groups — confirmed at booking based on your party size.
Are tolls and fuel included, or extra?
Included in the quoted price for your itinerary.
