Distance and travel time: Chennai to Vellore

Vellore is approx. 135–145 km from central Chennai along the Chennai–Bengaluru highway through Sriperumbudur and Ranipet, which takes approx. 2.5–3.5 hours. Leaving Chennai usually takes the longest part, so allow extra time for a fixed appointment.

Distances and times are approximate: road routing between the city centres (OSRM, OpenStreetMap data), checked on 4 November 2026 and rounded for typical traffic. The real time depends on traffic, weather, stops and the road the driver takes.

Vehicles you can ask for

A Sedan suits most small families. For a patient, elders, a wheelchair or more luggage, tell the partner in the notes, and consider asking for an SUV or Innova for more room. Groups can ask for a Tempo Traveller, Mini Bus or Bus.

Vehicle preference is subject to partner availability. Partners with the vehicle you ask for respond only if they are free for your date.

One-way or round trip

Choose Outstation Round Trip if you return the same day or the next day, enter the return date and time, and say how long the driver should wait. Choose Outstation One Way for a drop, for example for a longer hospital stay. An enquiry is not an ambulance or an emergency service.

Pickup and drop

Common pickup points are homes and hotels in Chennai, Chennai airport and Chennai Central railway station. Common drops are CMC hospital campuses, Sripuram, Vellore Fort and hotels in the town. Mention the exact campus or address, because Vellore has more than one hospital site.

FAQs — Chennai to Vellore

Can I get a taxi from Chennai to CMC Vellore for an appointment?
You can ask for one. Give your appointment time and the exact campus in the enquiry. Whether a partner responds depends on who is free for your date, so post early and keep a backup plan for an important appointment.
Can the cab wait during a hospital visit?
Choose Outstation Round Trip and write how long the driver should wait. Hospital visits can run late, so agree what happens if the wait gets longer before the trip.
Is this an emergency or ambulance service?
No. Namma Grab only connects you with cab partners for planned trips. For a medical emergency, call an ambulance or your hospital.
Does Namma Grab fix the Chennai to Vellore fare?
No. Namma Grab does not set or estimate fares and takes no booking commission. Each partner gives you their own quote, and you pay the partner you choose directly.
