A booking will be considered confirmed only after confirmation from our team and, where applicable, receipt of the required advance payment. Booking details should be checked carefully by the customer after confirmation.

The fare quoted for a booking will depend on the vehicle type, travel route, distance, duration, number of passengers and other applicable requirements. Additional charges may apply for tolls, parking, permits, entry fees, waiting time, extra kilometres, driver allowances or other expenses where applicable.

Any applicable taxes or additional charges will be communicated to the customer wherever possible before the journey. Customers are responsible for making payments according to the agreed booking terms.

3. Cancellation & Refunds

Cancellation and refund eligibility depends on the booking type, vehicle, travel date and cancellation timing. Any advance payment or booking amount may be subject to applicable cancellation charges.

Customers should contact Lonavala Taxi & Bus Services as early as possible if they need to cancel or modify a booking. Refunds, where applicable, will be processed according to the applicable cancellation terms.

4. Changes to Bookings

Customers may request changes to the pickup location, destination, travel date, time or vehicle type. All changes are subject to availability and may result in a change in the total fare.

Last-minute changes may not always be possible, particularly during weekends, holidays, peak travel periods or high-demand dates.

5. Pickup & Waiting Time

Customers are requested to be available at the agreed pickup location and time. Additional waiting charges may apply if the vehicle is required to wait beyond the agreed or complimentary waiting period.

For airport, railway station and other scheduled pickups, customers should provide accurate arrival or departure information to help us coordinate the transfer.

6. Vehicle & Driver

We aim to provide the vehicle category confirmed at the time of booking. In exceptional circumstances, such as vehicle breakdown, maintenance, operational issues or unforeseen circumstances, we may provide an equivalent or suitable alternative vehicle.

Drivers are expected to follow applicable traffic and safety regulations. Customers must follow reasonable instructions given by the driver during the journey.

7. Passenger Safety

Passengers are required to follow applicable road safety laws and regulations. Seat belts should be used whenever provided. The driver may refuse unsafe or unlawful requests that could compromise passenger, vehicle or road safety.

The transportation service must not be used for any illegal activity or for carrying prohibited items.

9. Vehicle Cleanliness & Damage

Customers are expected to use the vehicle responsibly and maintain reasonable cleanliness. Additional charges may apply for excessive cleaning, stains, damage, smoking-related damage or other damage caused by passengers.

Smoking, consumption of prohibited substances or any activity that may damage the vehicle may be restricted.

10. Travel Routes & Additional Stops

The agreed route and destination should be communicated at the time of booking. Additional stops, route changes, detours or extended usage may result in additional charges and are subject to driver and vehicle availability.

For sightseeing and customised tours, the final itinerary should be agreed upon before or during the booking process.

Customers should confirm the inclusions and exclusions of their outstation booking before starting the journey.

12. Delays & Unforeseen Circumstances

We make reasonable efforts to provide timely transportation. However, delays may occur due to traffic, road conditions, weather, accidents, vehicle breakdowns, road closures, government restrictions, public events or other circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

We will make reasonable efforts to assist customers in such situations but cannot guarantee a specific arrival time where external circumstances affect the journey.
