SWMBO has us flying from Australia into DEL at 6 pm and booked the start of a trekking tour for 6 am - 12 hours later! - in Dehradun, Uttarakhand, 267 km or about 5 hours' drive away.

I cannot find any flights or trains that can realistically make the trip in time. There's one IndiGo flight departing an hour after we arrive, so no chance of making that.

Can anyone recommend reputable private car services that'll drive us from DEL to Dehradun at night? Is Uber there a viable option? Should SWMBO never be allowed to book again and is the whole trip rooted before it even starts?
