Golden Triangle Tour with Haridwar & Rishikesh — 7 Nights / 8 Days
The Golden Triangle extended into the foothills of the Himalayas — Haridwar's evening Ganga Aarti and Rishikesh, the self-declared "Yoga Capital of the World", on the banks of the Ganges. Starts from $379 per person.
Overview
Haridwar and Rishikesh sit where the Ganges leaves the Himalayan foothills and enters the plains — Haridwar known for its evening Ganga Aarti at Har Ki Pauri, Rishikesh for yoga ashrams, suspension bridges, and a more laid-back riverside pace.
This circuit adds two nights in the hills to the classic Delhi-Agra-Jaipur route — a natural add-on if you want temple towns and mountain scenery alongside the Mughal history.
