Udaipur to Ranakpur Cab
90 km · ~2 hours via NH162 through Gogunda
Udaipur to Ranakpur is a short, scenic 90 km drive — Rajasthan's most spectacular Jain temple complex, 15th century, 1,444 uniquely-carved marble pillars. A classic day-trip from Udaipur, often combined with Kumbhalgarh Fort on the same outing.
Route description
NH162 climbs into the Aravallis past Gogunda — winding two-lane road, slow but beautiful. No major towns on the route; a tea stop at Gogunda is the standard halt. Ranakpur's temple complex sits in a narrow valley; parking is organised, visitor fees and shoe-deposit are at the entrance.
Stops and attractions en route
- Gogunda(50 km from Udaipur)

How Outstation Pricing Works
- •Per-KM rate — varies by vehicle type and city of pickup
- •Minimum 300 KMs per calendar day
- •Driver allowance charged per day
- •Night halt allowance — if vehicle retained overnight
- •Toll, parking, and interstate taxes — at actuals
- •GST at 5% on invoice
All outstation trips are round-trip by default — billed garage to garage. Even if you drop one side only, return kilometers are included in the calculation. One-way drop service is available from select cities at different rates.
Worked example: A 2-day trip covering 90 km one side (180 km round trip) is billed as the higher of actual kilometers or 600 KMs (2 days × 300 KM minimum), plus 2 days of driver allowance, plus tolls/parking at actuals, plus 5% GST. Contact us for a specific quote.

Frequently asked questions
Can we combine Ranakpur with Kumbhalgarh Fort in one day?
Yes — a very popular pairing. Kumbhalgarh is 40 km east of Ranakpur (1 hour). A full-day Udaipur → Ranakpur → Kumbhalgarh → Udaipur trip is roughly 12 hours including 4 hours of sightseeing at both. We typically recommend Kumbhalgarh in the morning (cooler wall walk) and Ranakpur in the afternoon (temple's best light).
Are non-Jains allowed inside Ranakpur?
Yes, between 12:00 and 17:00. A small entry fee and camera fee apply. Visitors must be modestly dressed (shoulders and knees covered) and remove shoes and leather items at the entrance. Photography is allowed inside the main shrine.
Can we overnight near Ranakpur?
Yes — a handful of heritage hotels (Fateh Bagh Ranakpur, Maharani Bagh) sit in the valley for a quiet overnight between Udaipur and Jodhpur. This is often cleaner than a same-day Udaipur-Jodhpur run because it splits the hill stretch.
How is the outstation fare calculated?
Outstation trips are billed per kilometer with a minimum of 300 KMs per calendar day. The per-km rate depends on your vehicle type and city of pickup. Driver allowance is charged per day. Toll, parking, interstate taxes, and GST at 5% are added at actuals. Contact us for an exact quote for your dates.
Is this a one-way or round-trip rate?
All outstation bookings are round-trip — billed garage to garage. Even for a one-side drop, return kilometers are included. We do offer one-way drop service from select cities at different rates — ask us for availability.
What is included in the fare?
The base fare covers vehicle hire (per-km rate × total kilometers) and driver allowance. Toll charges, parking fees, interstate permit taxes, and GST at 5% are charged at actuals and itemized on your invoice.
How are days counted?
Calendar days — Day 1 starts when the vehicle departs from our garage. Each calendar day carries a minimum of 300 KMs. For example, a 3-day trip has a minimum billing of 900 KMs regardless of actual distance covered.
What is driver allowance and night halt?
Driver allowance is a daily charge covering the driver's meals and incidentals during outstation duty. Night halt is an additional charge when the vehicle is retained overnight. Both vary by city — contact us for specifics.
What vehicles are available for outstation?
We offer sedans (Swift Dzire, Toyota Etios), SUVs (Innova, Ertiga), premium sedans (Honda City, Ciaz), tempo travellers, and buses. Availability varies by city.
