Comfortable outstation cab with professional drivers • Transparent fares • Flat 15% OFF on one-way trips
Overview
Haridwar is one of the seven holiest cities in Hinduism and the point where the Ganges leaves the Shivalik Hills to enter the Indo-Gangetic plains, making it the gateway to the Char Dham pilgrimage. The evening Ganga Aarti at Har Ki Pauri ghat, where thousands of oil lamps float on the river while priests perform synchronised fire rituals, is one of India's most powerful spiritual spectacles. Haridwar hosts the Kumbh Mela every 12 years, when up to 30 million people gather for the sacred bath — the largest peaceful gathering of humans on earth. From Mumbai, Haridwar is approximately 1500 kilometres away — a 22-24-hour drive on NH 48 to Delhi → NH 334 via Meerut → Roorkee → Haridwar that offers pleasant highway views.

NH 48 to Delhi → NH 334 via Meerut → Roorkee → Haridwar DelhiHistory & Significance
Haridwar's sacred significance dates to the Vedic period, and it finds mention in ancient texts as Gangadwara (gateway of the Ganges) and Mayapuri. The city was visited by Chinese traveller Xuanzang in the 7th century, who described it as a thriving Buddhist and Hindu centre. The British built the Ganges Canal from Haridwar in 1854, and the city has been a starting point for Himalayan pilgrimages for thousands of years.
