The size that fits a wedding party or a full project team
Seventeen seats is the most requested single size at our Bengaluru hub, and the reason is arithmetic: it carries a full project team or an extended wedding party in one vehicle, below the threshold where a bus driver's licence and a separate permit class apply. You can take it as a Tempo Traveller at ₹24/km or as a Force Urbania at the executive rate. Both seat seventeen; they differ in ride, height and how they present on arrival.
Indicative per-kilometre rates from the Bangalore (Bengaluru) hub. Final quote depends on route, duration and season.
| Vehicle | Seats | From |
|---|---|---|
| Force Urbania 17 Seater | 17 | ₹32/km (300km min/day) |
| Tempo Traveller 17 Seater | 17 | ₹24/km |
Choosing between the two 17-seaters in Bengaluru usually comes down to the venue. Palace Grounds, Jayamahal and most convention hotels have deep porticos where either works. But if the day involves a tech-park campus or a hotel with a height-barred entrance, the Urbania's van profile clears where the coach does not. For an outstation run to Coorg or Hampi with seventeen aboard, the Tempo Traveller's larger boot is the better trade — seventeen passengers generate more luggage than the Urbania's rear compartment absorbs.
Urbania if guests are being moved between hotel and venue in city clothes and arrival presentation matters. Tempo Traveller if the same vehicle is also running an outstation leg with luggage, because the boot is larger. Many wedding bookings take one of each across the weekend.
No. Seventeen passenger seats sits below the threshold where heavy passenger vehicle licensing and the associated permit class apply, which is a large part of why this size is priced as it is. All-India tourist permits for outstation legs are handled by us and included in the quote.
In a Tempo Traveller, yes, with one check-in bag each. In the Urbania it is tight and we would suggest either dropping to fourteen passengers or adding a second smaller vehicle. Tell us the passenger and bag count and we will size it honestly rather than overselling the single coach.
