Master Cab is an intercity taxi and cab rental operator based in Vadodara, Gujarat, serving travellers across India. We started with a small fleet on the Vadodara to Ahmedabad corridor and grew by doing the unglamorous things consistently: quoting a fare and sticking to it, sending the car that was promised, and answering the phone at two in the morning when a flight lands late. That is still how the business runs today, across Ahmedabad, Vadodara, Surat, Rajkot, Bharuch, Ankleshwar, Anand, Nadiad, Gandhinagar, Jamnagar, Bhavnagar and Vapi, with outstation trips onwards to Mumbai, Pune, Udaipur, Saputara, Dwarka, Somnath and the Statue of Unity.
Every booking on this page is a private cab. The vehicle is assigned to you alone, there is no pooling with other passengers, and the driver stays with your trip from pickup to drop. Whether you need a one way taxi for a single business meeting, a round trip taxi for a family weekend, or a corporate account for regular plant visits, the process is the same — check the fare, confirm the car, travel.
Transparent pricing you can check before you travel
Fare confusion is the single biggest complaint travellers have about cab booking in India. We handle it by publishing the number before the journey rather than after. Your quote is based on the distance between pickup and drop, the vehicle category you select and, where applicable, driver allowance and night charges. There is no demand based surge, no last minute "highway rate", and no rounding up at the destination. On popular intercity routes we hold a fixed published fare, which means the price you see on a Tuesday afternoon is the price you see on a Diwali weekend.
Toll, parking and state permit charges are treated the same way. Where they apply, they are explained at the time of booking so you know exactly what the driver will ask for at the end of the trip. If you would rather see the full picture route by route, the route directory lists distance, approximate travel time and fares for each city pair we operate.
Drivers who know the road you are travelling
A long highway journey is only as good as the person behind the wheel. Our drivers hold valid commercial licences, are background verified, and are allocated based on the route they know best — the ghat sections towards Saputara call for different experience than a straight expressway run to Mumbai. Before pickup they receive your itinerary, including planned halts, so you are not repeating your plan at every stop.
Drivers are also briefed on the basics that quietly define a good ride: arriving early rather than on the dot, helping with luggage, keeping the cabin quiet when passengers are resting, and taking mandated rest breaks on overnight journeys instead of pushing through. For airport taxi and railway station transfers, the driver tracks your flight or train and adjusts the pickup time so you are not paying for waiting that was never your fault.
A fleet matched to the trip, not just the seat count
Choosing the right car changes the economics of a journey. A hatchback is the most affordable taxi option for one or two passengers on short intercity hops such as Vadodara to Anand or Nadiad. A sedan is the practical default for airport transfers and business travel, with enough boot space for two large suitcases and a smoother ride over long distances. An SUV earns its slightly higher per kilometre rate on family trips, pilgrimage circuits and hill routes, where luggage volume and road conditions matter more than fuel efficiency. For groups, weddings and corporate offsites, seven to thirteen seater vehicles keep everyone travelling together instead of splitting across cars.
Every vehicle in the fleet is air conditioned, cleaned before each trip, and maintained on a documented service schedule rather than only when something breaks. Tyres, brakes and lights are checked before long outstation runs.
Popular journeys our customers book most
The heaviest demand runs along the Gujarat industrial corridor — Vadodara to Ahmedabad, Surat to Mumbai, Bharuch and Ankleshwar plant visits, and Rajkot connections into Saurashtra. Alongside that, leisure travel drives weekend round trips to Udaipur, Saputara and the Statue of Unity, while Dwarka and Somnath pilgrimage circuits are regular multi day bookings that we plan with night halts and daily kilometre limits agreed in advance.
Airport work is the other constant. Early morning departures from Vadodara and Ahmedabad, late night arrivals into Mumbai, and connecting drops from smaller towns such as Anand, Nadiad, Bharuch and Vapi make up a large share of our daily trips — precisely the slots where app based cabs are hardest to get and most expensive.
Route pages with distance, travel time and car-wise fares are published for each city pair we run — including Ahmedabad, Vadodara and Surat taxi routes. If your city pair is not listed, the booking form still quotes it: our pricing is distance based, so a fare exists for every road route in India.
Safety, driver verification and what we check before every trip
Safety on a 300 km highway run is a process, not a promise. Each driver's commercial licence and address are verified before they take a booking, and their record on our routes is reviewed as they continue. Cars carry valid permits, insurance and fitness documents, and are GPS tracked for the length of the journey. Overnight trips follow mandated rest breaks — a driver who has driven all day does not also drive all night.
Before pickup you receive the driver's name, phone number and vehicle registration, so you can confirm who is at your gate and share those details with family. For women travelling alone and for elderly passengers, our support line stays reachable through the trip and can check in with the driver on your behalf.
Weekend getaways, holiday travel and corporate accounts
Weekend travel out of Gujarat has a rhythm we plan around: Friday night departures to Udaipur and Saputara, Saturday morning family runs to the Statue of Unity, Sunday evening returns that need a driver willing to wait an extra hour. Holiday and festival bookings — Diwali, Navratri, school vacations — are quoted at the same published rates, confirmed in advance so a vehicle is genuinely held for you rather than promised.
On the business side, corporate accounts cover plant visits across the Bharuch and Ankleshwar belt, client pickups in Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar, and airport runs for visiting teams, billed monthly with GST invoices. Multiple cars can be scheduled together for weddings, event delegates and offsites so a whole group travels as one.
Booking a cab online, or over the phone
Online taxi booking on this site takes under a minute: choose your trip type, enter pickup and drop, pick a date and time, and compare car options with their fares side by side. You confirm with a mobile number and receive the vehicle and driver details before travel. No app download is required and no advance payment is needed for most bookings.
If you would rather explain the trip to a person — multi city itineraries and group travel often benefit from that — call +91 98986 02533 or email booking@mastercabs.in. Support is available 24×7, including during your journey, so there is always someone to call if plans change mid trip.
