We can sign in to uber and sign out when we wish. So at 3am in areas where there are many trips at all hours, there is almost certainly a driver waiting for your request, although there are probably far fewer drivers than there are during the day.
To the best of my understanding, there are no working hours for Ola and Uber. They are available round the clock. However cabs may or may not be available at that time in your locality. Once you click on the car/clock icon you will be asked for details to schedule a ride.
Uber service in Delhi is quite safe and reliable. You have an option of paying by cash at the end of the journey also or through your linked credit card.
The UBER's and OLA cabs are safe but why take a chance. 2. Re: Are cabs in Delhi safe at night? Of course it's safe to use a taxi any time of round the clock.
Most of the time Uber services (drivers/cars etc.) are better than Ola. Offers are more realistic in Uber whereas in Ola, offers proves to be cheating if you analyse those.
Delhi is as safe as any other big cities or you can say as unsafe as any other big cities. It's not like that if you go out at night that you won't come back home. Nearly 20 million people live in this city, so it automatically become very unpredictable for any instance.
There is no guarantee how safe a cab is, no place in this world is 'safe' or 'dangerous' till the time you are taking appropriate measures and are full aware of the place. However, simple measures can help you feel safe in Delhi. Although as said above nothing safe. Always keep a pepper spray with you.
Yes. It is very safe to travel in Ola or Uber cabs, if you follow below safety measures on your side. Cab aggregators provide driver image once your booking is confirmed. Do not board the cab if vehicle registration number or car model details provided is mismatching.
In Delhi, Ola is the cheaper ride share for short rides, while Uber is cheaper for long rides. For the short ride, Ola is notably only 1% cheaper during typical peak times but about 9% cheaper off-peak. For the long ride, Uber is about 12% cheaper during typical peak times and about 8% cheaper off-peak.

Taxi aggregator Ola has launched a new class of 'Micro' cabs, which have a base fare ranging from Rs. 35 to Rs. 45, at rates of Rs. 6 per kilometre.
You will find three options on clicking Prime - Prime Sedan, Prime Play, and Prime SUV. Select Prime SUV and click on Ride Now or Ride Later. Tada! You are done booking a 6-seater (subject to car availability).
Ola cabs has launched its web version and even supports desktop browsing and booking. So, if you want to book an Ola without using the Ola app, the process is quite simple. First of all, open the browser and go to on your phone or PC.
You can book up to 2 seats on your Ola Share ride. If you choose to book 2 seats, the pickup and drop location of the co-passenger traveling should be same. Note- Your fare may change when you choose to book 2 seats. The revised fare will be shown on the app before your confirm the booking.
Depends on which area in mumbai you are in, but mostly they are available. One little trick if you are not able to find an uber is to schedule a ride, they'll definitely send you a cab on the scheduled time even from far off.
Enter your pickup and drop locations and click on 'Ride Now'. Before confirming the booking you would need to choose the number of seats that you would wish to book. Ola Share allows a minimum of one and a maximum of 2 seats to be booked under one booking.
In most cases, booking two OLA Mini/micro cabs would work out cheaper than one Prime SUV. Alternatively you can book a Mini/micro/sedan, and request the driver to accommodate the fifth person. He may or maynot accept the request. Also the driver might ask you some extra bucks.
But the one area that taxis always had over Uber is the ability to book a ride for a specific time. “So whether it's a 4am trip to the airport or early morning meeting on a Monday, with just a few taps to the app, riders are able to schedule an Uber ride for as little as 15 minutes to as many as 30 days in advance.”
Are Uber and Lyft early morning scheduled pick-ups reliable? The reliability depends on the regular availability of the drivers near your neighborhood. For more rural areas, we recommend checking in on the Uber app a few days in advance at your designated future pickup time (ie: 6am).
While Uber's scheduled rides are not guaranteed, they can work quite well in densely populated areas where there are always lots of drivers available. When you live in a quieter suburb there is a smaller chance that Uber will be able to find a driver for your scheduled ride.
Uber is a 24/7 service, whenever a driver is online, you can hail an Uber car. Usually, there are mutliple drivers online 24/7 for medium to large cities. However, to ease your mind, we recommend checking in on the Uber app a few days in advance at your designated time (6am).
To request an Uber follow the next steps: -choose “Request uberX”. If you're getting message “No cars available”, please wait a couple of minutes and try to request again.
Depends on your location
In most major cities getting a driver at 5am is not a problem at all as there are plenty of drivers on the road. In smaller more rural or suburban areas, you might find there are very few or no drivers on the road at that time of day.The base fare does not change throughout the day. Surge pricing may change the price. Typically, the price of taking a Lyft does not change throughout the day.
In general, the rideshare companies do not raise or lower fares based on the time of day. However, you will notice that demand for rides (and therefore fares) rise at certain times of the day, like during morning and evening rush-hour, after a large event and near bar-close time.
If you want the fare to be cheapest, best way to travel would be during the non peak hours. Peak hours include morning and evening office times and during rains.
