"Gateway to God"

Haridwar tourism.

Haridwar is one of the seven holiest cities in India, situated in Uttarakhand. It is located where the sacred river Ganga enters the Indo-Gangetic plains for the first time. Dotted with temples, ashrams and narrow lanes across the city, Haridwar is a famous Hindu temple town where millions of devotees come to take a dip in the holy Ganges. It's believed that taking a dip in the sacred Har Ki Pauri relieves one of all the sins.

The highlight of Haridwar is the famous Ganga Aarti held at the Har ki Pauri Ghat every evening. Thousands of devotees come together to pray to river Ganga and float diyas. Haridwar is one of the four cities (others being Ujjain, Nasik and Allahabad) that host the Kumbh Mela every twelve years. The Kanwar Mela is also organised here every year during saawan  (rainy season). It is also the gateway to the Char Dham of Uttarakhand and acts as the base destination for some of the other tourist towns of Rishikesh and Devprayag. According to Hindu traditions, there are Panch Tirth (five pilgrimages) within Haridwar.

Excellent Experience in Char Dham Yatra. Vehicle was good enough for travel. Driver was good, communicative, with good driving skills. Accomodation were very good maintained.

Lokesh Agrawal

Our Chota Char Dham Yatra experience with TourTripX exceeded our expectations. The carefully selected hotels provided comfort and quality, with the exception of Kedarnath, where challenging conditions were handled as best as possible. Despite limitations, the effort to manage the situation showcased a commitment to our well-being. Remarkably, there was considerable flexibility in choosing hotels, allowing us to tailor our experience. This flexibility, uncommon in many travel agencies, added a personalized touch to our journey.

The overall pricing of the package was reasonable, reflecting a commitment to delivering value. While we had a desire for a helicopter ride (to Kedarnath), the inability to arrange one was understandable given the complexities in this corrupt system. Honesty from the travel agency about the situation demonstrated integrity.

The brand-new car provided for the journey added to the overall comfort and safety.

Proactive communication throughout the trip was commendable, reflecting genuine concern for our well-being. Prompt resolution of any issues demonstrated dedication to customer satisfaction.

In conclusion, the personalized approach, professionalism, and commitment significantly contributed to making our Chota Char Dham Yatra a truly enriching and memorable experience. I highly recommend their services for anyone planning a similar journey. A special thanks to Utkarsh, who assisted us from day one until our yatra concluded, essentially from Hyderabad to Hyderabad (end to end).
