Recommended Airports
Arrival by airplane
You can book your flight to arrive at Dehradun Airport (DED) or Indira Gandhi International Airport (DEL). Tarang Yoga Ashram provides pick-up service from Dehradun Airport (2500 INR) and Indira Gandhi International Airport (6000 INR).
Taking a taxi from Delhi to Rishikesh is worth considering, as it is connected to other cities via the National Highway 58, which is in good condition for most of the year. Tarang Yoga Ashram can organize a taxi for you.
They always work with the same taxi company and drivers. The drive from Delhi to Rishikesh would take approximately 5 to 6 hours. The approximate fare from New Delhi is around 68 EUR (between 5,000 and 6,000 INR) depending on the season and time of the day. If you arrive on the 2nd like most students you might be able to share the taxi and the taxi cost with someone else.
Being a popular tourist destination, Rishikesh has a good network of buses connecting it with important places such as Haridwar, Dehradun, and New Delhi. Buses depart in the morning and late evening from the Kashmere Gate ISBT, New Delhi for Rishikesh every day. You can choose from a regular, deluxe, or luxurious coach.
The nearest railhead to Rishikesh is in Haridwar which is approximately 25 kilometers away. Haridwar, in turn, is linked to major Indian cities such as Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Lucknow, and Varanasi. Some of the popular trains are Shatabadi Express, Jan Shatabdi, AC Special Express, and Mussoorie Express. For those making the journey to Rishikesh, it is advisable to take the train to Haridwar and then either take a bus or hire a taxi to Rishikesh. While the bus would take about 45 minutes, the taxi will take you to Rishikesh in about half an hour.
