Ekadashi, Janmashtami and Gaura Purnima are very crowded. Book the car early for those dates.

What we tell people before this trip
Plain things that make the day easier. We would rather say them first than after.
Nabadwip is across the river and adds about two hours. Say if you want it, so the day is planned right.
The temple has a dress code and a bag rule. Keep it in mind before you leave home.

questions
Barrackpore to Mayapur
What does the Barrackpore to Mayapur trip cost?
We do not put a rate online, because the honest amount depends on the vehicle, your dates and whether it is one way or return. Send those three and you get a written amount on WhatsApp, usually within minutes.
Is one way possible or only return?
Both. One way costs less than a return for the same road, and we tell you both amounts so you can choose.
Are tolls, parking and driver food included?
We tell you exactly what is inside the amount and what is not, before you book. Nothing new is added on the road.
Can the car stay with us for local sightseeing?
Yes. Most people keep the same car and driver for the whole trip, which is easier than finding a vehicle there every morning.
How far is Barrackpore to Mayapur by road, and how long does it take?
It is about 105 km by road and the drive usually takes 3 hours. We plan for real traffic, not a map estimate, so the pickup time we give you leaves room for the slow stretches.
Can I book a tempo traveller or bus from Barrackpore to Mayapur?
Yes. For a family or group we do this trip in a tempo traveller, mini bus or larger bus as well as a car. Tell us how many people are going and we suggest the vehicle that fits with the price in writing.
Is the Barrackpore to Mayapur trip safe for kids and elderly parents?
Yes, this is a family trip for us more often than not. The same drivers have been with us for years, the car is checked before a long run, we plan tea and toilet breaks instead of one long push, and you get the driver name, his number and the car number before pickup. 12,000+ rides so far with a 100% safety record.
How far is Kolkata to Mayapur by road?
From central Kolkata it is about 122 km, and from Barrackpore about 105 km. We start the trip from either side, so tell us your address and we plan the pickup time from there.
not sure yet? send the date anyway. If we cannot do it, we will say so.
