Planning a cab from Tiruchirappalli to Warangal? Count on close to 1004.9 km and around 18 hours 16 minutes on the road. The drive runs largely along NH44 (the Tamil Nadu backbone). A sedan starts at ₹12,059, with bigger vehicles available for groups.
The Tiruchirappalli-Warangal route is 1005 km long and normally takes 18 hours on NH44 (the Tamil Nadu backbone). The ghat sections through the Eastern Ghats are scenic but winding, so we send drivers who know the curves. Sairgah holds your advance in escrow and pays the driver only after pickup, so the booking is safe even from abroad. Sedan, SUV, or Tempo Traveller, all AC, depending on how many of you are travelling.
What the route is actually like
8 toll plazas (around Rs. 850 total). All tolls and state taxes are included in your Sairgah upfront fare, so you pay nothing extra to the driver. Summer (April to June) afternoons are hot on open highways; early morning departures are recommended.
Car options for the Tiruchirappalli–Warangal run
A sedan (Dzire, Amaze, Etios — comfortable for four adults) is the default choice and the cheapest, starting at ₹12,059. 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 Tuvagudi, Mannachanallur, Pappakurichchi if that's closer to you.
One-way vs round trip on this route
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 Warangal for local sightseeing or a return within a couple of days.
What the fare actually includes
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 1004.9 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.
Every driver on the Tiruchirappalli–Warangal route knows the corridor — we don't send a city cabbie out on an unfamiliar highway for their first time. Free cancellation up to four hours before pickup, GPS tracking on every vehicle, and a real person on the phone if anything comes up. Book online or message us on WhatsApp for a custom quote.
