Places of Tourist Interest

Holiday tours in Rishikesh present a unique combination of fun, excitement, and tranquility. Whilst the holy shrines let you delve deeper into meditation, the gurgling waters invite you to undertake a thrilling journey to explore the hidden beauties of the Himalayas.

Visit to the Stalactite and Stalagmites Caves

It's a small drive of around one hour to stalactite and stalagmite caves, near Guller. On the way back, one can also visit the Vashishth Caves for which the vehicle would halt at Guller. From thereon, one has to walk nearly 250 meters to reach the place.

Trek to Kunjapuri:
Drive for about an hour to the Kunjapuri temple, our starting point for the trek. Set amidst lush green forest, Kunjapuri offers fantastic and glorious views of the legendary Himalayan peaks like Banderpoonch, Chaukhamba, Nanda Devi, and Trisul etc. The temple is dedicated to goddess Durga. A fair is held on Ashtami in this beautiful temple, built on flattened part of a hilltop. Thousands travel to receive her blessings.

Visit to Devprayag:
Drive to the holy town of Devprayag, which is at the confluence of two sacred rivers, the Bhagirathi and the Alaknanda. Both the rivers merge here to form the Holy Ganges.
 
The Ganga is the most sacred river in the Hindu religion and a dip in the holy waters of the Ganga is said to wash away all sins.

Visit to Rishikesh:
A great pilgrimage center of India made famous by Beatles who stayed here in an ashram for 3 months. It is famous the world over for its yoga centers and spiritual missions.
 
We visit temples, ashrams, Yoga centers and the famous Laxman Jhoola and Ram Jhoola suspension bridges in Rishikesh, made famous by the Beatles who visited here in the 1970's. At Rishikesh, the holy Ganga leaves the Himalayas and enters the Indo- Gangetic plains on its 2525- km journey to the Bay of Bengal.

So go places and enjoy an adventurous holiday tour in Rishikesh rafting the white water, camping by the river side, and observing the Indian wildlife biodiversity in their natural habitats.
