• Lakshman Jhula Bridge - Guests will be collected from the airport or their hotel in Delhi and transported to Rishikesh, located 170 miles from Delhi. The journey to Rishikesh takes approximately six hours.

During the trip, there will be a stop at Haridwar, an ancient Hindu city and pilgrimage destination. Pilgrims gather along the banks of the River Ganges here, as it is believed that bathing in the sacred river purifies them of their sins. Visitors can stand in quiet reflection on the steps of Har-ki-Pauri while observing the river’s flow. The city is also a popular destination for international travelers seeking peace and spiritual enlightenment in India. It offers a wonderful opportunity to learn about the universal principles of Hinduism.

Following the visit to Haridwar, the journey continues towards Rishikesh. Rishikesh serves as the gateway to the four sacred temples of Kedarnath, Badrinath, Gangotri, and Yamunotri. It is believed that meditating in Rishikesh can lead to liberation from the cycle of life and death. Visitors can explore Laxman Jhula, a suspension bridge that crosses the River Ganges.

• Ram Jhula - Further downstream lies a larger bridge, the Ram Jhula. Guests can enjoy lunch (at their own expense) at a local restaurant. After lunch, they can stroll around the town and visit the numerous ashrams (Hindu monasteries) and temples.
• Har Ki Pauri - In the afternoon, the drive back to Delhi begins, with another stop in Haridwar along the way. In Haridwar, guests can return to the banks of the River Ganges to witness the nightly aarti. The entire atmosphere resonates with the chants and hymns that accompany the daily ritual of lighting lamps and offering prayers to the River Ganges.

After this unforgettable prayer session, the journey to Delhi continues. Upon arrival in Delhi, guests will be dropped off at their hotel.
