About This Trip

Covering 297 km in around 5 hrs 56 mins, the Varanasi to Rajgir route is best done with an early start so you can reach well before evening. This isn't strictly necessary, but it does make for a more relaxed drive with lighter traffic and better visibility along the way, especially if you're travelling with family or on a tight schedule. Guruji Travels shows exact per-km fares in the table above, so you know your total cost before booking, with tolls itemized separately and no hidden charges added later. Every vehicle is GPS-tracked and every driver verified. Booking is simple - call, WhatsApp, or book directly through our website, for each trip taken.

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 Varanasi during peak hours, factor in an extra 30-45 minutes to clear city traffic before you hit the highway.
