When you're travelling as a group of 9 or more, the choice usually comes down to two options: the Tempo Traveller or the Force Urbania. Both are solid choices, but they suit slightly different needs — here's how to think about which one fits your trip.
Seating Capacity
Our Tempo Traveller comes in a range of configurations from 9 up to 17 seats, giving you flexibility to match the vehicle closely to your exact group size. The Force Urbania is available in 13 Seater and 17 Seater configurations — fewer size options, but each with a premium seating experience.
Comfort Level
This is where the two vehicles differ most. The Urbania is generally considered the more premium option — reclining seats, more generous legroom, and a smoother ride overall, which is why it's a popular choice for weddings, corporate group travel and pilgrimage groups where comfort over a longer journey matters more.
The Tempo Traveller is a reliable, well-tested choice that comfortably fits most group travel needs without the premium price point, making it a strong option when budget efficiency matters as much as comfort.
Best Use Cases
- Choose Tempo Traveller for: flexible group sizes from 9-17, budget-conscious group bookings, local group outings and shorter trips
- Choose Force Urbania for: weddings and corporate events, longer outstation or pilgrimage trips where comfort matters more, groups of exactly 13 or 17 wanting a more premium experience
Pricing Considerations
As you'd expect, the Urbania's premium positioning generally means a higher per-kilometre rate than the Tempo Traveller. Neither vehicle has a one-size-fits-all price — it depends on your route, trip duration and whether it's a local or outstation booking — so it's worth getting quotes for both if you're on the fence.
Making the Decision
If comfort and presentation matter most — a wedding, a corporate event, a longer pilgrimage tour — lean towards the Urbania. If you need flexible seating for a specific group size and want a dependable, cost-effective option, the Tempo Traveller is usually the better fit. Either way, share your group size, trip type and route with us and we'll help you pick the right vehicle rather than guessing.
