JD’s Taxi runs private cabs between Vadodara and Mount Abu, one-way or round trip, with pickup from your address in Vadodara and a choice of sedan, SUV, Innova Crysta or Tempo Traveller depending on how many people are travelling. There’s a fair bit of climbing on the last stretch into Mount Abu, so a private car with a driver who’s done the ghat road before is a more comfortable option than piecing the trip together with a bus and a local taxi at the top. Book one-way if you only need to get up to Mount Abu, or round trip if you want the same car and driver waiting for you when you’re ready to come back down.
Vehicle | One Way | Round Trip | Seats |
Sedan (Swift Dzire / Hyundai Aura) | ₹4,800 – ₹5,800 | ₹9,000 – ₹10,500 | 4 |
SUV – Maruti Ertiga | ₹6,500 – ₹7,500 | ₹12,000 – ₹14,000 | 6 |
SUV – Kia Carens | ₹7,000 – ₹8,000 | ₹13,000 – ₹15,000 | 6 |
Innova Crysta | ₹8,500 – ₹10,000 | ₹16,000 – ₹18,500 | 6–7 |
Tempo Traveller | ₹12,000 – ₹16,000 | ₹22,000 – ₹30,000 | 12–17 |
These are starting ranges, not a final quote. Toll, parking and the hill-road permit charged on the way into Mount Abu are extra, Rajasthan state tax may apply, and pickups between 10 PM and 6 AM carry a night surcharge. The exact fare depends on the vehicle you pick, your pickup point in Vadodara, whether you’re stopping anywhere on the way, and how many days you need the car for on a round trip. Confirm the final number with JD’s team before you travel.
A one-way taxi makes sense when you only need to get to Mount Abu and don’t need the car for the return leg — a family trip where you’re flying back from Udaipur, a hotel checked-in already, a college drop, or simply a plan where someone else is handling the way back. You still get a private vehicle and driver for the whole 335–340 km run, you’re just not paying for or arranging a return trip you won’t use.
A round trip is the better call if you’re going up for sightseeing, a family holiday, or a couple of nights at Nakki Lake and want the same driver back at the bottom of the hill for the return journey. Share your return date and rough time when you book, so JD’s Taxi can hold the vehicle and confirm the fare for both legs together instead of scrambling for a cab once you’re ready to head home.
Sedan (4 seats) — a Swift Dzire or Hyundai Aura works fine for a couple or a small family with normal luggage. It’s the cheaper option and handles the ghat road without any issue.
Ertiga (6 seats) — more room for a bigger family, or a small group that wants some breathing space over a 6–7 hour drive.
Carens (6 seats) — similar seating to the Ertiga with a bit more comfort, if that matters more to you than the price gap.
Innova Crysta (6–7 seats) — the pick for a long hill drive if comfort is the priority — more legroom and a smoother ride on the climb.
Tempo Traveller (12–17 seats) — for a larger group or family travelling together in one vehicle instead of splitting into two cars.
The road distance between Vadodara and Mount Abu is roughly 335–340 km, and the drive usually takes around 6 to 7 hours. That figure moves depending on the route the driver takes, traffic through Ahmedabad, and the climb up the ghat road, which is slower going than the flat highway stretch before it. Treat it as a working estimate, not a guaranteed arrival time — build in some buffer if you’re planning to reach before a specific time, like a hotel check-in or an evening at Sunset Point.
Most trips run north on the highway from Vadodara toward Ahmedabad, continue through Himmatnagar and cross into Rajasthan around Abu Road, and then climb the ghat road up to Mount Abu itself. Drivers sometimes adjust the route depending on traffic or road work on the day, so the exact roads taken can vary a little trip to trip — the overall distance and time stay roughly the same either way.
JD’s Taxi can pick up from anywhere across Vadodara city — your home, hotel or office, Vadodara Airport, Vadodara Railway Station, or areas like Alkapuri, Gotri, Manjalpur and Makarpura. Just share the exact address when you book.
Drop-off at the other end can usually be arranged at your hotel or resort, a guesthouse near Nakki Lake, a residence, or a specific meeting point if you’re joining family or a tour group already there. Let JD’s team know the exact address in advance so the driver knows where he’s headed once he’s up the hill.
You get one vehicle for your whole group, picked up and dropped exactly where you ask, with a driver who’s made the Vadodara–Mount Abu run before and knows the ghat road. No bus transfer at Abu Road, no fixed departure time to plan around, and you choose the vehicle size that fits your group and your luggage. It works the same way whether you’re travelling solo, as a family, or with a full group booking the Tempo Traveller.
Once you’re up there, the usual stops are Nakki Lake, the Dilwara Temples, Guru Shikhar, Sunset Point, Toad Rock and Achalgarh. If you’d like the car for local sightseeing while you’re in Mount Abu rather than just the drop, mention it when you book and JD’s team can work out a local rental arrangement alongside your outstation trip.
