Char Dham Yatra Package from Kolkata
A Char Dham Yatra from Kolkata works best when someone else handles the roads, rooms and permits, and this 12 nights 13 days Char Dham Yatra package from Kolkata does exactly that. Pilgrims from Howrah, Salt Lake, Siliguri, and the rest of West Bengal can pick a Kolkata to Char Dham tour package that begins with a simple train or flight to Delhi. Many choose the Rajdhani for a Char Dham tour from Kolkata by train, while flyers reach Delhi in about two hours. From there, our coordinator guides the group through Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath, and Badrinath at an easy pace. Yatra registration, hill hotels, vegetarian meals, and an experienced driver are all arranged before you leave home. Families and senior citizens choose fixed departures because every halt is planned, so darshan never feels rushed. Booking early for Char Dham Yatra 2027 secures you better rooms, calmer travel dates, and a group price that stays lower than a private trip.

Char Dham Yatra Package from Kolkata: 13 Days Itinerary
Day 01 Kolkata to Delhi
Take your train or flight from Kolkata and reach Delhi. Our representative receives you at the station or airport and takes you to the hotel. Freshen up, have dinner, and rest. Overnight in Delhi.
Day 02 Delhi to Haridwar
After breakfast, we drive to Haridwar, about five to six hours with a tea stop. Check in, relax, then walk to Har Ki Pauri for the evening Ganga aarti, where hundreds of floating diyas light up the river. Haridwar is where the Ganga leaves the mountains and enters the plains, which is why it is called the gateway of the hills. If time allows, visit Mansa Devi or Chandi Devi by ropeway. Overnight in Haridwar.
Day 03 Haridwar to Barkot
An early start takes us through Dehradun and Mussoorie toward the Yamuna Valley. Kempty Falls is an optional stop if the road is clear and the group is on time. Lunch on the way. We reach Barkot by evening. The drive is long, about seven to eight hours, so keep water and snacks handy. Overnight in Barkot.
Day 04 Barkot to Yamunotri and Back
Drive to Janki Chatti, the start of the trek. Yamunotri is roughly five to six kilometers on foot, and ponies, palkis, and porters are available at the trailhead. At the top, pilgrims bathe in Surya Kund, offer prayers at the Yamuna Mai temple, and touch the Divya Shila before darshan. Many devotees tie rice or potatoes in a cloth and boil them in the hot water as prasad. Return to Barkot by evening. Overnight in Barkot.
Day 05 Barkot to Uttarkashi
A shorter, easier drive of four to five hours along the Yamuna and Bhagirathi valleys. After lunch and rest, visit the Vishwanath Temple, known for its large iron trident, and the Shakti Temple opposite it. Uttarkashi is often called the Kashi of the Himalayas. The evening is free for repacking and early rest. Overnight in Uttarkashi.
Day 06 Uttarkashi to Gangotri and Back
We leave at dawn for Gangotri, about 100 km away. The drive passes Gangnani, Harsil Valley with its apple orchards, and Bhairon Ghati. At Gangotri, take a holy dip or sprinkle river water, visit the temple built by Gorkha commander Amar Singh Thapa, and see the submerged Shivling rock in the Bhagirathi. Fill a small bottle with Gangajal. Return to Uttarkashi by evening. Overnight in Uttarkashi.
Day 07 Uttarkashi to Rudraprayag
A full driving day through the hills via Ghansali toward Rudraprayag, about eight to nine hours with stops. Scenery changes from deep gorges to open green slopes. Rudraprayag sits at the meeting point of the Mandakini and Alaknanda. Check in and pack a small bag for Kedarnath. Overnight in Rudraprayag.
Day 08 Rudraprayag to Guptkashi, Gaurikund and Kedarnath
An early drive via Guptkashi to Sonprayag, then a short jeep ride to Gaurikund. The Kedarnath walk is about 16 km and rises steadily, so go slowly and drink water often. Ponies and palkis are available for those who need them. Reach by evening, check in at the hotel or camp, and join the night aarti at the temple. Carry a warm jacket, as the cold sets in fast. Overnight at Kedarnath.
Day 09 Kedarnath to Rudraprayag
Go for early darshan when the line is shorter, then watch the first light on the Kedar peaks. Descend to Gaurikund, take the jeep to Sonprayag, and continue by our vehicle to Rudraprayag. Knees take most of the strain on the way down, so carry a walking stick. Overnight in Rudraprayag.
Day 10 Rudraprayag to Badrinath
Drive along the Alaknanda through Karnaprayag, Chamoli, and Joshimath. The road is scenic, and the air gets thinner as we climb. Reach Badrinath, check in, and attend the evening aarti at the Vishnu temple if the timing suits. Overnight in Badrinath.
Day 11 Badrinath to Rudraprayag
Begin with a bath at Tapt Kund and then queue for darshan of Badri Vishal. Pilgrims may also perform pind daan at Brahma Kapal for their ancestors. Drive the short distance to Mana, the last Indian village near the Tibet border, to see Vyas Gufa, Ganesh Gufa, Bhim Pul, and the point where the Saraswati River appears. After lunch, start the return drive and stay overnight in Rudraprayag.
Day 12 Rudraprayag to Rishikesh
Drive down to Rishikesh via Devprayag, where the Bhagirathi and Alaknanda join to form the Ganga. Arrive by afternoon. Visit Laxman Jhula, Ram Jhula, Triveni Ghat and Parmarth Niketan, and stay for the evening aarti by the river. Overnight in Rishikesh.
Day 13 Rishikesh to Delhi and Return to Kolkata
After breakfast, drive about 230 km to Delhi, around six to seven hours. We drop you at the station or airport for your journey back to Kolkata. Keep a buffer of three hours before a flight and a little more before a train. The yatra ends here.

How to Reach Char Dham from Kolkata?
None of the four shrines has an airport or railway station. You reach Delhi, Haridwar or Dehradun first, and the rest of the journey is by road.
By train: Many pilgrims choose Kolkata to Char Dham by train because the luggage allowance is generous and the fares are gentle. Howrah and Sealdah have Rajdhani and Duronto services to New Delhi, and trains such as Doon Express and Kumbha Express run toward Dehradun and Haridwar. The ride takes about a day, so pack food and a light blanket. Timetables change, so confirm before booking.
By air: Fly from Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose Airport (CCU) to Delhi (DEL), around two hours. Some seasons have a flight to Dehradun's Jolly Grant Airport (DED) too, which saves the Delhi to Haridwar drive. Our driver waits at arrivals with a name board.
By road: Driving from West Bengal is several days of highway and is not practical for a group yatra. If you come by your own car, we shift you to a hill-ready vehicle at Delhi or Haridwar.
Best Time to Visit Char Dham from Kolkata
The shrines open in April or May and close by early November, with three windows worth knowing.
May to June: Clear skies and open roads, but heavy crowds. Book hotels and tickets early.
July to August: Monsoon. Landslides and road closures are common, so first-timers and seniors should avoid it.
September to October: The rain ends, views turn sharp, and crowds thin out. Nights are cold, so pack warm clothes.
Bengal's Durga Puja season falls in this last window, so many families plan right after the festival.
How to Book Char Dham Tour Package from Kolkata?
- Start with dates: Tell us your month and group size, and we'll see which fixed departures still have seats. May, June and October fill first.
- Share your IDs: Send a clear scan of everyone's Aadhaar, passport, or voter ID so we can sort out registration and permits.
- Pay a small deposit: Send the booking amount to our official bank account or UPI. Don't pay for anyone's personal number.
- Get your voucher: It has your departure date, hotels, pickup details, and the group leader's number. If we book your Kolkata train or flight, those tickets come along too.
- Settle the balance: Pay what's left before you leave Kolkata, then just pack your warm clothes and medicines.
- Tip for seniors: Book 4 to 6 weeks ahead if possible so you have better rooms and time for a health check-up.
Why Choose Our Char Dham Tour Package from Kolkata?
- Confirmed rooms: Hill hotels sell out in peak months. We block rooms in advance.

- Senior-friendly pace: Rest stops, ground-floor rooms where possible, and a recovery night after Kedarnath.
- Food you can eat: Pure vegetarian meals, with plain, lightly spiced options for Bengali palates.
- One point of contact: If a pass, vehicle, or room has an issue, our team handles it.
- Better value in a group: Group pricing helps: split the cars and rooms, and each person pays less than on a private trip.
