Bus Hire with Driver · Pune
Book a bus with an experienced driver for weddings, school trips, corporate events, pilgrimages and outstation tours. One coordinator, one clear quote and no surprise charges on the day you travel.
A bus on rent in Pune costs ₹35 to ₹70 per km depending on the size. A one day outstation package (300 km) starts at ₹10,500 for a 17 seater and goes up to ₹21,000 for a 50 seater bus. A Pune local trip of 8 hours and 80 km in a 32 seater AC bus costs ₹10,000. Toll, parking and state permit are charged as per actual and shown in your quote before you book.
Why Shelke Travels
Finding a reliable bus on rent in Pune usually means calling five operators, getting five different quotes and still not knowing which bus will actually turn up. We built our service to remove that guesswork. One coordinator handles your booking from start to finish, from picking the right seating capacity to briefing the driver on your route and pickup time.
Our fleet covers 17, 20, 27, 32, 40, 45 and 50 seater buses in AC and Non AC options. Every bus is serviced on a fixed schedule, not only when something breaks, and is cleaned inside before each trip. Our drivers know Maharashtra’s highways and ghat roads well, including night driving in wedding season and the monsoon stretches on the Lonavala and Mahabaleshwar routes.
Whether you need bus hire in Pune for one wedding day, a daily office shuttle or a three day pilgrimage, your quote shows the base fare, driver allowance, toll and parking separately. Nothing new gets added on the day.

Fare Calculator
Most confusion about bus rental in Pune comes from the daily minimum. Here is how a quote is built, step by step.
The round trip is about 150 km, but outstation trips are billed on a 300 km daily minimum. So you pay for 300 km even if you drive less, which means Khandala, Tiger Point and Bhushi Dam all fit inside the same price.
A Pune to Mahabaleshwar trip of up to 300 km in a 32 seater AC bus costs ₹18,800. Adding Panchgani or Pratapgad? Tell us when you enquire and we will send the revised total before you pay any advance.
Size Guide
The right mini bus on rent in Pune depends on two things: how many people are travelling and how much luggage they carry. Wedding guests and multi day travellers carry more bags, so size up one step for those trips.
| Group Size | Light Luggage (day trip) | Heavy Luggage (wedding, outstation) |
|---|---|---|
| 12 to 15 people | 17 seater bus or tempo traveller | 17 seater bus |
| 16 to 20 people | 20 seater SML bus | 27 seater SML bus |
| 21 to 27 people | 27 seater SML bus | 32 seater bus |
| 28 to 32 people | 32 seater bus | 40 seater bus |
| 33 to 45 people | 40 or 45 seater bus | 45 or 50 seater bus |
| 46 to 50 people | 50 seater bus | Two smaller buses |
For groups under 12, a Force Urbania or Tata Winger is usually more comfortable and cheaper per head.
