Introducing Traveltime

Traveltime Mobility India Private Limited began over two decades ago as Surya Tours and Travels in 1992, running just two buses on the Pune‑Latur and Pune‑Nagpur routes. Its operations started under a tree in Shivaji Nagar, Pune, with only a table and determination. From these humble beginnings, Traveltime has evolved from a cab and bus operator into a leading provider of transportation solutions for both public and private sectors, earning a reputation for safe and reliable travel.
In a largely fragmented road transport sector, Traveltime has grown steadily, embracing new technologies while nurturing the people behind the wheel, ensuring the success of both its fleet and its workforce.
Because for Traveltime, progress isn’t just about moving forward, it’s about moving with you.

Traveltime plans routes carefully, assigns the right vehicles and drivers, and maintains backup arrangements to ensure efficient and on-time service. Drivers are trained and monitored in line with company safety standards and legal requirements.
