Is there a "Kilometres limit" to how much I can drive?

This depends on the pricing plan that you select. If you go for the “Unlimited kms” pricing plans (available only without fuel, and only for bookings whose duration is more than 72 hours), there is absolutely no limit to the kilometres that you can drive, and you have complete flexibility of driving the car as much as you want. Roadz it up! Other pricing plans have a "Kilometres limit", which varies based on the plan selected. You can still drive beyond the kilometres limit, but the additional kilometres clocked will attract an additional charge.

Are there restrictions on where I can travel?

All of our cars are equipped with an All North East Tourist Permit, so you are free to drive anywhere in the North East. All North East Tourist Permit means that the car is legally permitted to ply in any state in the North East, after paying the inter-state taxes at the state borders. However, we do not permit taking our vehicles to Nagaland/Manipur region and Mizoram. We also advise you to avoid bad terrains (especially in non- SUV cars) and areas affected by civil unrest.

The toll charges incurred during your trip will be billed to you in your invoice.

What about the car Conditons ?

We always provide cars in mint condition, with the vehicle's servicing up-to-date. Occasionally, you might receive a vehicle with a slightly dirty exterior. This can happen because some trips start immediately after the previous trip ends, although this is very rare. In such cases, we may not have enough time to fully wash the vehicles, even though we thoroughly clean the interior by vacuuming and sanitizing it. Car washing takes a hour so, We understand that waiting for our clients for the car sometimes be frustrating. While we always strive to satisfy our clients by delivering a clean and fully sanitized car, there are times when we fall short. In such situations, we offer a minimal refund for washing.

We only allow our cars to be taken to the Bhutan region. To do so, you will need to sign an agreement with us, as we are required to provide you with the car's original documents, which must be presented at the Bhutanese checkpoint. Without these original documents, you will not be permitted to enter.
