Question 1

What is a drop taxi?

Accepted Answer

A drop taxi is a one-way cab. It takes you from Bangalore to your destination and you do not keep the vehicle for the return journey. It suits airport drops, railway and bus connections, and one-way trips to another city.

Question 2

How much does a drop taxi from Bangalore cost?

Accepted Answer

The fare depends on the vehicle and the distance. Our listed rate for an Innova Crysta is ₹19 per km (AC), with driver bata of ₹400. Share your destination and date and we confirm the one-way fare before you book.

Question 3

Which cities can I take a drop taxi to from Bangalore?

Accepted Answer

Popular one-way drops include Mysore, Coorg, Ooty, Chikmagalur, Tirupati, Chennai, Pondicherry, Mangalore and Coimbatore, as well as airport drops within Bangalore. Ask us for any other destination.

Question 4

Can I book a drop taxi for a group?

Accepted Answer

Yes. For 8 to 12 people choose a Tempo Traveller or Force Urbania, and for larger groups a 22 to 50 seater bus.

Question 5

Should I book a one-way drop or a round trip?

Accepted Answer

If you are leaving the destination on a different day or by a different route, a one-way drop is simpler. If you are returning to Bangalore the same trip, a round trip with the same vehicle usually makes more sense. We can quote both.
