Leave your Delhi doorstep on day one and return nine days later having seen Gangotri, Kedarnath and Badrinath. One vehicle, one driver and one plan for the whole family, with no train connections to worry about.
Most Delhi families who ask us about the Teen Dham Yatra have the same worry: getting everyone, luggage and elders included, to Haridwar in time for a 6 am start. The Delhi package removes that problem. Your vehicle comes to your gate in South Delhi, Dwarka, Noida, Gurugram or Ghaziabad, and the first day is simply the 230 km drive to Haridwar, ending with the Ganga aarti.
From Haridwar the route is the same one we run for Haridwar guests: Gangotri on the Bhagirathi, Kedarnath on the Mandakini and Badrinath on the Alaknanda. On the final day you drive straight back to Delhi from Rudraprayag. It is a long day in the car, but it saves a hotel night and puts you home by late evening.

Tips for Delhi pilgrims
Leave Delhi by 6 am on day 1 to beat the traffic on the way out of the city.
Register every traveller on the free Uttarakhand portal before the trip; our registration guide explains how.
Delhi summer clothing is not enough: nights at Kedarnath and Badrinath are cold even in June.
If you want the Kedarnath helicopter, be ready on the IRCTC HeliYatra portal the day the booking window opens. Read Kedarnath helicopter booking from Delhi.
Book May–June dates two to three months ahead; September and October are quieter.
The 2026 season is closing in November, so all new Delhi departures are for the 2027 season.
