The drive: roads, tolls and where to stop
Most people break the journey around Pathankot, Jammu, Katra — decent dhabas and fuel stops there if you want to stretch. an estimated 1 toll plaza (roughly Rs. 150 total, figure is an estimate and confirmed at booking). All tolls and state taxes are included in your Sairgah upfront fare, so you pay nothing extra to the driver. Jammu: Vaishno Devi Yatra season (Aug-Oct) and holidays bring heavy traffic on the Pathankot-Jammu NH44; expect delays at Lakhanpur.
Car options for the Tarn Taran–Jammu run
A sedan (Dzire, Amaze, Etios — comfortable for four adults) is the default choice and the cheapest, starting at ₹5,332. Step up to an SUV like an Innova or Ertiga if you've got six people or a lot of bags, or a Tempo Traveller (12–17 seats) for bigger groups and wedding or corporate travel. Every vehicle is AC, cleaned before the trip, and driven by a verified, GPS-tracked driver. We also pick up door-to-door from nearby places like Amritsar, Patti, Jandiala Guru if that's closer to you.
One-way drop or round trip?
Two ways to book: a one-way drop, where you're not charged for the driver's return if they can pick up another fare back; or a round trip, where the driver waits and brings you home. One-way usually costs less if you're flying or training back. Round trip makes sense if you want the car with you at Jammu for local sightseeing or a return within a couple of days.
How the fare is built
The number you see when you book is the number you pay at the end. That covers fuel, toll tax, state entry tax, the driver's meals, GST and parking — built up from the 177.4 km distance at the vehicle's per-km rate plus the driver's daily allowance. There's no "toll extra, sir" at the end of the trip. Short routes may carry a minimum-km floor.
