Itinerary

Haridwar is one of the four holy cities that host the Kumbh Mela every 12 years. Hindus visit the city to offer prayers to the Ganga River. Rishikesh is another holy city revered by Hindus. If you are planning a pilgrimage tour, check the Haridwar Rishikesh trip package itinerary from GT Holidays.

Upon your arrival at Delhi, our tour manager will welcome you and drive you to Haridwar. The journey takes around 4.5 hours and is loved for its scenic views. Check into the hotel and spend some time relaxing.

Haridwar translates to "The Gateway to Vishnu," as this is where pilgrims start their Char Dham yatra. Interestingly, Shaivites call this place Hardwar, as Har means Shiva, while Vaishnavites call it Haridwar, with Hari meaning Vishnu.

The most auspicious place in Haridwar is the Har ki Pauri, which is believed to be the Ganges' exit point from the mountains. From here, the Ganges enters the plains. It is called the Brahma Kund, as legend has it that this is where a drop of amrit fell on earth when Garuda was carrying the Elixir of Eternal Life after Sagar Manthan, or the Churning of the Ocean.

Spend the night in Haridwar.

Today, you will visit some of the major tourist attractions in Haridwar, including the Daksha Mahadev Temple, Ma Anandmayi Ashram, Parad Shivling, Mansa Devi Temple, Chandi Devi Temple, Pawan Dham, Maya Devi Temple, Parmath Niketan Ashram, Bhuma Niketan, Shanti Kunj, Bharat Mata Mandir, and the Saptarishi Ashram.

Later, you will proceed to Rishikesh. This holy city is situated at the confluence of the Ganga and the Chandrabhaga Rivers. Hindus believe that a dip in the Ganga river here washes all sins. Don’t miss the Triveni Ghat Aarthi, where the three holy rivers, i.e., the Ganga, Yamuna, and the mythical Saraswathi, converge.

Spend the night in Rishikesh.

Today, you will explore major tourist attractions like Ram Jhula, the Beatles Ashram, Lakshman Jhula, and Gita Bhawan. Later, check out of the hotel and head to Delhi.
