Luggage, honestly
Ten large trolleys with all thirteen seats occupied. Genuine boot space, not overhead racks.
What it is good for, and what it is not
Wide body. Handles every highway and hill road we run, but a narrow gated driveway or a basement car park will not take it.
Cost per person on 20 routes from Bangalore
Round-trip fare for this vehicle, divided by its seat count. Use it to compare against the other vehicles at your group size rather than as a quote — your actual per-head cost depends on how many of the seats you are filling.

Compare with the rest of the fleet
Ertiga
The smallest vehicle on this site, and the entry point for group travel. Below six people a sedan is cheaper; at six the Ertiga is the only vehicle where nobody sits sideways.
Tempo Traveller 12
The best cost per person of anything on this site. If the group is eight or more and the budget matters more than recliner seats, this is the answer.
Tempo Traveller 17
The workhorse for temple groups and school excursions. Seventeen seats at the lowest per-head cost available anywhere in the fleet.
Urbania 10
Ten pushback seats and a boot that swallows a family's luggage. The version to pick when the group is small enough that everyone wants to recline.
Urbania 17
Maximum seats without moving to a bus. Seventeen recliners for large corporate groups and wedding convoys that must stay together in one vehicle.
Mini Bus
For groups above seventeen, where splitting into two Tempo Travellers costs more and separates the party.
Our honest view
If you take one figure from this page, take the boot. Thirteen seats with room for ten large trolleys is the only combination in the fleet that handles a multi-day trip for a full group without a roof carrier or bags on laps. It is why this is the most-booked vehicle we have, and why groups that try the seventeen-seater for a long tour often come back to the thirteen.
