Do Dham Yatra Tour Packages

The Do Dham Yatra in its usual form covers Kedarnath and Badrinath, the two eastern shrines of the Char Dham, and leaves Yamunotri and Gangotri for another year. Both temples lie in the Mandakini and Alaknanda valleys of Garhwal, so the trip from Delhi is a single loop up through Haridwar, Rishikesh, Devprayag and Rudraprayag rather than the full west-to-east sweep. From Delhi it takes about 7 to 8 days, against 11 or 12 for all four.

Kedarnath, dedicated to Shiva, stands at about 3,580 metres and is reached by a trek of about 16 km from Gaurikund, with pony, palki and helicopter alternatives. Badrinath, dedicated to Vishnu, is at about 3,300 metres and the road runs right into the town, so no walking is required. Between them lie Chopta and the Ukhimath ridge, and the two valleys join at Rudraprayag. The temples open after Akshaya Tritiya in late April or early May and close around Diwali.

Two other pairings are sometimes booked under the same name: Yamunotri with Gangotri for those who have already done the eastern shrines, and Gangotri with Badrinath for those who want to avoid both treks. They are described further down. Registration with Uttarakhand tourism is required for each traveller on every variant, and we run them from Delhi with a private car or tempo traveller, and as fixed departures in season.

Popular Travel Route for Do Dham Yatra from Delhi:

Delhi - Haridwar - Deoprayag - Rudraprayag - Guptkashi - Sonprayag - Gaurikund - 16 kms Trek - Kedarnath - Chopta - Joshimath - Badrinath - Rudraprayag - Rishikesh - Haridwar - Delhi

Yamunotri and Gangotri Yatra package

This pairing covers the two western shrines and the two river sources. From Haridwar the road goes to Barkot for Yamunotri, where the last 6 km from Janki Chatti is on foot or by pony, then over Radi Top to Uttarkashi and up the Bhagirathi to Gangotri, which the car reaches directly. Both valleys are narrow and the driving days are slow, so the Yamunotri Gangotri do dham tour package runs about 6 nights and 7 days from Delhi. It is the natural second half for pilgrims who did Kedarnath and Badrinath earlier.

Kedarnath and Badrinath Yatra Package

The standard Do Dham. Delhi to Haridwar on the first day, up the Alaknanda to Guptkashi on the second, the Kedarnath trek from Gaurikund on the third with a night at the temple, back down and across to Pipalkoti or Joshimath on the fourth, Badrinath on the fifth, and two days back to Haridwar and Delhi. Helicopter services from Phata, Sersi and Guptkashi shorten the Kedarnath day for those who cannot walk. The 5 nights 6 days version from Haridwar is the one most families book.

Gangotri and Badrinath Yatra Package

For travellers who want two shrines with no trekking at all. Gangotri is reached by road from Uttarkashi and Badrinath by road through Joshimath, so the only walking is around the temples and, optionally, to Bhim Pul at Mana. The two are far apart, with a long transfer from Uttarkashi through Tehri and Rudraprayag, and the trip is usually 3 nights 4 days from Haridwar or 5 to 6 days from Delhi.

Every Do Dham Yatra package is run with a chauffeur-driven vehicle from Delhi; hotels, meals and a local guide can be added on request. Tell us which pairing you want and the dates, and we will confirm the road plan and the current opening status.
