Pre-booked · ~75 km from base · the Vande Bharat railhead
Taxi service in Amb & Amb Andaura station.
Amb Andaura is the Vande Bharat railhead for the Kangra valley, about 75 km and two hours from our Kangra base. We meet the train on the platform road with a tracked pickup and drive you anywhere in the valley — Kangra from ₹5,000 all-in for a sedan, and Dharamshala, McLeodganj, Palampur or Chintpurni confirmed on WhatsApp. We are a Kangra firm, so pre-book and the car sets off to reach you.
Pickup & drop — anytime, anywhere
Taxis in Amb, run by the drivers.
Since the Vande Bharat started running, Amb Andaura has become the fastest way into the Kangra valley from Delhi — and the single most common thing that goes wrong with the journey is the last leg. The station sits in Una district with little onward transport, the trains arrive at hours when there is nothing waiting, and people find themselves negotiating on the station road with luggage and children.
We take that part off you. We follow the train’s live running, the driver is on the station road when it actually pulls in, and there is no waiting charge if it runs late. From there it is a straight drive up: about two hours to Kangra, two and a half to Dharamshala, a little more to McLeodganj.
Being honest about where we are: our cars stand in Kangra, not at Amb. That is why these are pre-booked rather than hailed — tell us the train and we set off in time to be there before you are. Chintpurni and Jwala Ji both sit close to the road up, so a darshan halt on the way is easy to build into the same fare if you want one.
How we reach you: We are honest about this one: our cars are based in Kangra, not here. So these trips are pre-booked — tell us the time and the car sets off early enough to reach you.

Taxi service in Amb — your questions
How do I get from Amb Andaura station to Dharamshala or Kangra?
By pre-booked car — there is very little waiting at the station. Kangra is about two hours and Dharamshala about two and a half. A sedan to Kangra starts from ₹5,000 all-in; we confirm the exact fare for your drop point on WhatsApp.
Do you track the Vande Bharat if it runs late?
Yes. We follow the train’s live running so the driver is on the station road when it actually arrives, and there is no extra waiting charge for a delay.
Can we stop at Chintpurni or Jwala Ji on the way up?
Yes, and it is one of our most-asked combinations. Both shrines sit close to the road from Amb into the valley. Tell us on WhatsApp and we build the halt into the same fare.
Are your cars based at Amb?
No — we are a Kangra firm, about two hours away. That is exactly why these trips are pre-booked: tell us your train and we set off in time to be on the station road before you step off it.
