Intercity Route

Delhi Rishikesh & Haridwar

A relaxed transfer to the twin holy towns of Haridwar and Rishikesh on the banks of the Ganga. Popular for pilgrims, yoga retreats, and weekend getaways.

Haridwar and Rishikesh sit on the banks of the Ganga at the foothills of the Himalayas, and are among North India's most visited spiritual destinations. Our private transfer from Delhi NCR covers around 240 km via NH-58 in roughly 4.5 hours, taking you directly to your ashram, hotel, or the ghats.

Haridwar is famous for the Har Ki Pauri ghat and its evening Ganga Aarti, while Rishikesh, 25 km further upstream, is the self-proclaimed 'Yoga Capital of the World' with ashrams, the Lakshman Jhula and Ram Jhula suspension bridges, and white-water rafting on the Ganga.

This route is popular for weekend trips, yoga retreats, and Char Dham Yatra pilgrims heading further north to Badrinath or Kedarnath. We can drop you at either town or both, and our drivers are used to the narrow ghat-side lanes and ashram gates.
