Day 1 – Arrival Day (Dehradun)
Your spiritual journey begins as you arrive in Dehradun, where our dedicated team will warmly welcome you. We will transport you to the state government helipad on Sahastradhara Road, Dehradun, from where we will embark on our flight to Yamunotri. We recommend an early departure from your hotel to ensure an energetic start to this devotional Chardham Yatra.
Upon landing at Kharsali (Yamunotri), our attentive handlers will unload your baggage and escort you to your hotel. After a refreshing breakfast, you will set out for darshan in Palki/Pony to Yamunotri temple, a picturesque 6 km trek surrounded by the beauty of nature. Following the darshans, enjoy a hearty lunch and some relaxation time at the hotel. In the evening, visit Shani Mandir & Yamuna Mata Temple.
Day 2 (Yamunotri to Gangotri)
On the second day of your Chardham Yatra, you will venture into one of Uttarakhand’s most beautiful valleys, Harsil, often referred to as Mini Switzerland. After breakfast, we will transport you to Gangotri temple, which is 20 km away from your hotel, for a divine darshan. Immerse yourself in the serene atmosphere and breathtaking beauty of Gangotri Dham. You’ll enjoy premium accommodations with ensuite washrooms, delectable vegetarian cuisine, short walks, and local sightseeing in this unexplored paradise.
As the day ends, relish a freshly prepared dinner and gather around the evening bonfire for a peaceful night’s rest.
Day 3 (Gangotri to Kedarnath)
Welcome to the spiritually charged Kedarnath Dham, a place where natural peace, religious fervor, and snow-capped peaks merge seamlessly. Your journey from Gangotri to Kedarnath begins at Guptkashi/Sersi/Phata base helipad. After a chopper change, you’ll fly to Kedarnath, which is a brief 6-10 minute flight from the base helipads. Please note that there may be a short wait (10 minutes to 3 hours) during helicopter changes, depending on shuttle slots, weather conditions, or technical considerations.
Upon arrival at the Kedar-top Helipad, our handlers will guide you for VIP Darshans at Kedarnath Temple. Your stay will be arranged at the Kedar basecamp. After the darshans, we’ll transport you from Kedarnath helipad to Guptkashi/Phata/Sersi Helipad, where another delightful dinner awaits, concluding another beautiful day of your Chardham Yatra.

Arriving at Badrinath helipad, our handlers will transfer you to the hotel, where you can enjoy breakfast/lunch before visiting Badrinath Temple for VIP darshans. After darshans, explore Mana Village, Vyas Gufa, and the origin point of the Saraswati River.
End your day with a comfortable stay and a delightful dinner at your hotel as you cherish the final day of your Chardham Yatra, getting up close to the Valley of Lord Narayan.
Day 5 (Badrinath to Dehradun)
After a hearty breakfast, pay your respects at Badri Narayan temple and return to Dehradun with positive vibes and cherished memories of your Chardham Yatra by helicopter.
