Long-distance trips like Shirdi are billed on total kilometres run (with the daily minimum applied to every day, including the darshan day) plus driver bata per night and the driver’s night stay where the vehicle cannot be used for sleeping.
Tolls, parking, interstate permit/entry tax and GST are extra at actuals. The final fare depends on pickup point, dates, stops and kilometres actually run — ask for an exact quote.

Travel Tips for Your Shirdi Trip
- Book aarti and darshan passes on the Sai Sansthan website before you leave.
- Thursdays, Guru Purnima and Ram Navami draw very large crowds.
- Keep ID proof for every passenger — hotels near the temple ask for it.
- For a 4–5 day trip, an Innova Crysta or tempo traveller is far more restful than a sedan.
