Private Day Trip to Haridwar and Rishikesh from Delhi by Car

Two sacred Hindu cities, Haridwar and Rishikesh, lie in the Himalayan foothills north of Delhi, but are near-impossible to visit in a day by public transport. This private full-day tour takes you to both: covering their ‘ashrams’ (retreats), temples, and ‘ghats’ (bathing steps) on the River Ganges. Experience pilgrim-filled Haridwar, including its floating lights ceremony, and the yoga city of Rishikesh, home to an ashram where The Beatles stayed.

Believed to be one the holiest Ghats in the country, Har Ki Pauri is supposedly the first place where Ganga touches plains, leaving behind the pristine ranges of the Himalayas. The ghat is also known as the Brahma Kund where you can see the stone which has an imprint of Lord Vishnu’s foot, as indicated by the name

. Thousands of people visit the ghats of the Ganga at Har ki Pauri at Haridwar to witness the aarti started several decades ago by Pandit Madan Mohan Malviya. The tradition continues unabated. The aarti is the sight to behold; You will be on the other side of the banks and could see the priests light up the lamps. Slowly, they started moving the lamps in the clockwise direction, in a rhythmic way. The reflection of lamps was visible on the Ganges. It seemed the river was acknowledging the prayers offered to her by taking away all the flowers and ghee lamps offered to her on small donas. The mighty Ganga had a strong current which was indicative of its purpose in life—loving unconditionally all those who come to its banks. The river never uses its own water yet it flows for the benefit of others who quench their spiritual thirst at its banks.
