Pickup in Trichy
Doorstep pickup anywhere in Trichy is part of the fare. Popular starting points include Srirangam, Thillai Nagar, Cantonment, KK Nagar, Woraiyur and Thennur. Stations and terminals we serve here: Tiruchirappalli International Airport (TRZ), Tiruchirappalli Junction, Chathiram bus stand and Panjapur bus terminus.

Chennai at a glance
Chennai is the capital of Tamil Nadu and the gateway to the south, known for Marina Beach, filter coffee, Mylapore’s temples and the IT corridor along OMR.
Places many guests visit after the drop:
Best time to visit: November to February. Tell us the exact area; a pickup in Tambaram and one in Ambattur lead to very different starting roads.
Getting out of Chennai is about timing: GST Road, OMR, ECR and the Bypass each choke at different hours, so a pre-dawn or late-evening start saves the most time.
Drop points we serve in Chennai: T. Nagar, Anna Nagar, Velachery, Tambaram, Sholinganallur and Guindy; also Chennai International Airport (MAA), Chennai Central railway station and Chennai Egmore railway station.
Best time to leave Trichy for Chennai
Most guests leave Trichy between 6 and 9 AM, and are in Chennai well before sunset. We run around the clock, so night departures are available without any extra step.
Trichy to Chennai: one way vs round trip
Coming back to Trichy as well? A round trip keeps the same car and driver with you, billed on both ways (about 660 km, with a 250 km minimum) plus bata for each day.
| Plan (Sedan) | Billed km | Estimated fare |
|---|---|---|
| One way Trichy → Chennai | 330 | ₹5,350 |
| Round trip, same day | 660 | ₹9,640 |
| Round trip, 2 days | 660 | ₹10,040 |
| Two separate one way drops | 660 | ₹10,700 |
Sedan estimates. A round trip suits you when the car waits at Chennai with you; if you stay longer and return on your own schedule, a second one way drop is usually the better fit.
How the Trichy to Chennai fare is worked out
Fare = billable km × the car’s per-km rate + driver bata. For a Sedan on this route that is 330 km × ₹15 = ₹4,950, plus ₹400 bata = ₹5,350. In an Innova it is 330 km × ₹21 = ₹6,930, plus ₹500 bata = ₹7,430. Extra stops or detours use the same per-km rate, and nothing is added for the driver’s return journey on a one way drop.
