Tempo Travellers suit city itineraries with multiple stops or narrow lanes (like old Delhi markets), while mini buses offer more luggage space and a smoother ride for outstation day trips. Costs are comparable at the 15–18 person threshold, so the decision often comes down to route and comfort priorities.
