Booking from outside Kerala

Most Urbania bookings we take are from groups flying in — Delhi, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Jaipur, Chandigarh, Lucknow. The pattern is nearly always the same: ten to thirteen people, one week, and a list of places that looks easy on a map and turns out to be four hours apart on the road.

What we do with that is simple. You send us the dates, the group size and the places you want. We come back with a day-by-day driving plan that is actually drivable, and one fixed fare for the whole trip. The same vehicle and the same driver stay with you from the airport pickup to the airport drop. No handovers at district borders, no second quote halfway through.

Arriving by flight. No

Why groups pick the Urbania

  • 16 separate recliner seatsNo bench rows. Everyone reclines, everyone has an armrest, nobody draws the short straw on a four-hour leg.
  • Standing-height roofYou can walk down the aisle without stooping. On a ten-day itinerary that stops mattering until day three, and then it matters a lot.
  • Monocoque bodyCar-like construction rather than a ladder frame. It leans less through the Neriamangalam and Kumily hairpins, which is the difference between a scenic drive and a queasy one.
  • Luggage that fitsRear bay takes a large suitcase per passenger. Nothing rides on the seats or on the roof.
  • Full air conditioningVents through the cabin, not just at the front. Kerala is humid from March onwards and the back row feels it first in lesser vans.

Questions we get asked

How many people fit in the Force Urbania?
16 passengers plus the driver, each in a separate recliner seat. There is no bench row, so nobody is squeezed three-across on a four-hour hill drive. Luggage goes in the rear bay — one large suitcase per person fits without stacking on the seats.
We are flying into Kochi from Delhi. Can the Urbania pick us up at the airport?
Yes. Give us the flight number and the driver tracks it. He waits at the arrivals gate with a name board. Cochin airport is about twenty minutes from our base at Nedumbassery, so a delayed flight costs you nothing extra in waiting charges.
What does a full Kerala tour in the Urbania cost?
Outstation hire is ₹28 per kilometre with a minimum of 200 km a day, plus ₹300 driver allowance. That works out to about ₹5,900 a day as the floor. A six-day hills-backwaters-beach circuit from Kochi usually lands between ₹35,400 and ₹44,500 depending on the route. We quote the exact figure before you book.
Is the Urbania comfortable on Kerala hill roads?
It handles the Munnar and Thekkady ghats well — monocoque body, so it sits flatter through the hairpins than a ladder-frame van. The high roof means you can stand up inside, which matters on a long day. Our drivers run these roads weekly.
Urbania or Tempo Traveller — which should we book?
Tempo Traveller if the budget is the deciding factor: ₹24/km for 17 seats. Urbania if comfort is, especially for parents or grandparents on the trip. Taller cabin, better seats, quieter at highway speed, and a smoother ride on the ghat sections.
Do you cover Tamil Nadu and Karnataka too?
Yes. Kodaikanal, Ooty, Coorg and Mysore all run off the same Kerala circuit. Interstate permit charges are extra and we quote them separately — they are a government fee, not our margin.
How far in advance should we book?
We run one Urbania, so December to February and the April–May school holidays go quickly. Three to four weeks ahead is safe for those months. Off season, a week is usually enough.
What is not included in the per-km rate?
Tolls, parking, interstate permits and entry fees at actuals. Everything else — vehicle, fuel, driver — is in the rate. We do not add a service charge at the end.
