Haridwar tours

Things to do in Haridwar

Travel to Haridwar, the 'Gateway to the Gods' and experience one of India's holiest cities. This deeply spiritual city straddles the Ganges where it emerges from the Himalayas, and pilgrims arrive year-round to bathe in the river's holy waters. Take a Haridwar tour with a local guide who is eager to help you discover the essence of the city he proudly calls home. Wander around the ancient temples, ashrams and dharamsalas (pilgrim rest houses) that line the river banks and city centre.Take a cable-car, or walk to the hilltop temple of Mansa Devi - your guide will remind you to be wary of mischievous monkeys along the way. In nearby Rajaji National Park, you're certain to spot a wild elephant, and if you're lucky a rare Bengal tiger roaming the park's forested foothills. For a truly new-age experience, travel upriver to a spiritual yoga retreat in Rishikesh. Your guide is eager to accommodate your unique travel interests into an unforgettable Haridwar and/or Rishikesh tour.
