About This Trip

Jodhpur to Shimla spans 821 km and takes approximately 16 hrs 25 mins. Given the distance, we build in an overnight halt as standard, so your driver stays rested and your journey stays safe from start to finish, rather than attempting to cover this considerable distance without a proper break anywhere along the entire route between both cities. Our fare table shows exact per-km pricing across all car types, with tolls and interstate permit charges itemized separately in your final breakdown. GPS-tracked cars and verified, experienced drivers are standard throughout. For a journey this long, the Innova Crysta remains our strongest recommendation for comfort, on every single journey you choose to take 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 Jodhpur during peak hours, factor in an extra 30-45 minutes to clear city traffic before you hit the highway.
