Leaving Mumbai

#### What a Mumbai to Lonavala cab with us looks like

Most people riding up from Mumbai are heading out for a weekend. This is how we run that trip.

₹

##### One price from the city, ₹2,700 up

The fare covers 120 km, more than the roughly 83 km drive up, plus the driver, fuel and the Expressway toll.

🌅

##### Out before Panvel jams

We pick up at any hour. Leave Mumbai by 6:30 AM and you clear Panvel and Khalapur before the weekend queue forms.

⛰️

##### Khandala comes first

From Mumbai you reach Khandala before Lonavala, so Rajmachi Point and Duke's Nose are an easy first stop.

🧳

##### Made for weekend stays

Book the drive up for Friday night or Saturday morning, and the ride home for Sunday whenever you check out.

✈️

##### Airport straight to the hills

Landing at Mumbai Airport (CSMIA)? We track the flight and drive you to Lonavala without a stop in the city.

🌧️

##### Same fare on a wet Saturday

August weekends are when app fares jump. Ours is fixed when you book and stays there.

On arrival

#### Coming up from Mumbai: what to see, in the order you reach it

Khandala is on your way in, Karla is past the town. Stops you add are charged extra.

##### Rajmachi Point & Duke's Nose

~5 km

The Khandala ghat views, right on your way up. Stop here first, before the clouds roll in.

##### Bhushi Dam

6 km

Get there before 10 AM and it is still quiet, even on a weekend.

##### Tiger Point & Lion's Point

12 km

Two valley viewpoints on the same road towards Aamby Valley. Do them together.

##### Karla Caves

11 km east

On the far side of town from Mumbai, so most people go after lunch.

##### Pawna Lake

22 km

Lakeside camping belt. Better as an overnight stay than a quick stop.

Distances are from Lonavala town. A full day of these from Mumbai works best with the car staying with you; see the [Lonavala round trip](https://orbitmiles.in/pricing/lonavala-round-trip/), quoted on request and confirmed in writing, or the [one-day Lonavala itinerary from Mumbai](https://orbitmiles.in/blogs/lonavala-places-to-visit-one-day/).

On the way

#### Food and rest stops, Mumbai to Lonavala

Coming from Mumbai, the Khalapur food court is the obvious break. It sits on the Expressway about 45 minutes out of the city, just before the climb, with restaurant counters, chai and clean restrooms. Families who would rather hold out can eat at Mapro near Lonavala instead. Your driver will stop for 15 minutes at no charge; say where when you set off. The full list is in our guide to [rest stops on the Mumbai–Pune Expressway](https://orbitmiles.in/blogs/mumbai-pune-expressway-rest-stops/).

Route Overview

#### About the Mumbai to Lonavala Route

From Mumbai, Lonavala is about 83 km away. Cars from the western suburbs and the island city head out by the Eastern Express Highway or the Sion–Panvel road, join the **Mumbai–Pune Expressway** after Panvel, pass the Khalapur toll plaza and then climb into the Sahyadris. Khandala comes first, then the Lonavala exit, a little before the road carries on towards Pune. Allow 2 to 2.5 hours.

Timing matters more from this side than from Pune. The bottleneck is getting out of the city and through Panvel and Khalapur, and on a Saturday morning that queue builds early. A 6:30 AM start gets you past it; it also puts you at Bhushi Dam before 10 AM, while it is still quiet. Coming back on Sunday, leaving Lonavala by mid-afternoon keeps you ahead of the evening rush into Mumbai.

Pickups cover all of Mumbai, Thane and Navi Mumbai, including Juhu, Mulund and Mumbai Airport (CSMIA). Rates for every car are on the [Lonavala pricing page](https://orbitmiles.in/pricing/lonavala/). Starting from Pune instead? The [Pune to Lonavala cab](https://orbitmiles.in/routes/pune-to-lonavala/) is a shorter, different drive.

Innova Hycross

#### Innova for a Lonavala trip from Mumbai

The Mumbai to Lonavala Innova fare is a fixed **₹6,000** one way in the Toyota Innova Hycross, with 120 km, the driver, fuel and the Expressway toll included. It is our most premium car, with six seats, a self-charging hybrid engine and the most comfortable seating in the fleet.

Looking for an Innova on rent from Mumbai to Lonavala? It comes with a driver at a fixed fare per trip. We do not hire it out by the hour or for self-drive. Book the drive up now and the ride back once you know your checkout time, or ask for a [same-day round trip](https://orbitmiles.in/pricing/lonavala-round-trip/) quote. Seats and luggage are on the [Innova Hycross cab](https://orbitmiles.in/fleet/innova-hycross/) page.

#### Before you book: how a fixed-fare cab compares

##### Booking direct vs a booking site

You book a named car (Citroën ë-C3, MG ZS EV, Kia Clavis EV or Innova Hycross), not a car category, and it comes from our own fleet. The fare is fixed with the toll inside it, it never surges, and you pay after the ride. Driver and car details reach you on WhatsApp before pickup.

[Why you pay after the ride →](https://orbitmiles.in/blogs/why-post-ride-payment-not-advance/)

##### An electric cab vs a CNG cab

A CNG cab carries its gas cylinder in the boot, so your bags have to fit around it. Our electric cars keep the battery under the floor, so the boot holds only luggage: 2 check-in + 2 cabin bags even in the ₹2,700 Citroën ë-C3. Our electric cars also pay ₹0 expressway toll.

[CNG cab boot space explained →](https://orbitmiles.in/blogs/cng-cab-boot-space-luggage/)

##### Cab vs train vs bus

For one or two people, the train or the bus costs less. For four, a ₹2,700 cab works out to ₹675 each, door to door, with the bags in the boot and no transfer to a station.
