Outstation chauffeur from Ahmedabad: intercity journeys and multi-day charters
Ahmedabad outstation days are long ones: the Statue of Unity at Kevadia, Vadodara down the expressway, the Solanki temples at Modhera and Patan to the north, and the Harappan port at Lothal to the south. All stay inside Gujarat, so the chauffeur handles tolls and timing rather than border posts.

Outstation in Ahmedabad
The Statue of Unity is the biggest draw and the longest day: the official site puts it at about 200 km and three to four hours from Ahmedabad by NH48, and about 90 km and an hour and a half to two hours from Vadodara, so many passengers pair it with a Vadodara night. It is open Tuesday to Sunday from eight in the morning to six in the evening and closed every Monday, which the coordinator checks before confirming. Vadodara itself is about 110 km on the expressway, a comfortable return with the chauffeur waiting through meetings or the Laxmi Vilas Palace. Lothal, the Harappan dock, is about 80 km south-west and a half-day out.
The routes we drive from Ahmedabad
North of the city Modhera and Patan combine into one heritage day: the Sun Temple at Modhera and the Rani ki Vav stepwell at Patan sit about 25 km apart, with Patan about 130 km from the airport by the tourism ministry reckoning and the whole loop about 100 to 130 km each way depending on the route. Multi-day charters run further: a two-night Kevadia and Vadodara circuit, a three-night run west to Dwarka and Somnath along the Saurashtra coast, or a Rann of Kutch charter to Dhordo in the winter festival months with two night halts. All stay inside Gujarat, so no state entry tax applies; the extras are the expressway and highway tolls, which the chauffeur pays by FASTag and the invoice shows at cost.
Permits, halts and the multi-day charter
Leave by six for Kevadia: the expressway is quick, but the last stretch beyond Vadodara is district road and the viewing gallery queue builds by mid-morning. Gujarat is a dry state, which shapes the evening rather than the drive, and the summer months make the afternoon leg the tiring one, so the chauffeur plans sights for the morning and the return for the late afternoon. Multi-day quotes here list the kilometres per day, where the chauffeur sleeps and the return date; a night in Vadodara added after Kevadia is confirmed by the coordinator, so the fare you were quoted is the fare you pay.

Questions
Outstation in Ahmedabad: frequently asked
Can the Statue of Unity be done in a day from Ahmedabad?
Yes, but it is a long one: about 200 km and three to four hours each way by NH48, so a six in the morning start and a return after dark. Many passengers prefer a night in Vadodara, about 90 km from Kevadia, and the site is closed on Mondays.
How far is Vadodara by road?
About 110 km on the expressway, a comfortable day return with the chauffeur waiting through meetings or the palace visit. It also works as a one-way transfer with the car released in Vadodara, or as the first night of a Kevadia charter.
Can Modhera and Patan be combined?
Yes, and they should be: the Sun Temple at Modhera and Rani ki Vav at Patan are about 25 km apart, north of the city, and make one heritage day of about 100 to 130 km each way. An early start puts you at Modhera before the coaches and at Patan for lunch.
Are there border taxes on Gujarat routes?
Kevadia, Vadodara, Modhera, Patan, Lothal, Dwarka, Somnath and the Rann are all Gujarat, so no state entry tax applies and the expressway and highway tolls are the only extras, FASTag-paid by the chauffeur and listed at cost. Rajasthan charters for Mount Abu or Udaipur meet that state tax at the border, which the chauffeur settles.
