I would like to know what the taxi fare from Jammu to Pahalgam is, as I can not find it anywhere on the internet. As it is the peak season for the destination I think the rates would be quite high, or even I would get overcharged, so it would be good to get some idea of the cost for this route. Please also advise whether the taxi should be prebooked?
Taxi's are never in short supply and there is not much to negotiate as every one has more or less fixed prices. Prebooking can be helpful if you want a pick up at Jammu airport or the railway station. Taxi from Jammu to Pahalgam will cost between 6000 to 10000Rs depending upon which car you want. Distance between Jammy and Pahalgam is about 280Km.
Hello and welcome to the forum! The distance between Jammu and Pahalgam is 279 kms, so that's about 4 to 5 hours to reach the latter. Here are the prices for some taxi types you can take: Omni Non-AC: Rs 4,480 Indica AC: Rs, 4,480 Indigo Logan AC: Rs 5,040 Swift Dzire AC: Rs 5,100 Tavera AC: Rs 5,900 Innova AC: Rs 5,900 There's also additional charges for round trips and night time travel. So you'd have to take those into consideration as well. It's up to you whether you'll book online or not. The advantage of booking online is that you won't have a problem getting a cab in case there are many passengers in your destination. But then, you'll also have to pay additional fees when booking or reserving online, so that's a disadvantage. I hope this helps!
