Destination Guide
Uttarakhand
Rivers, temples, and hills that hold their quiet.
Overview

Nainital, Mussoorie, Rishikesh, Jim Corbett and the Char Dham route — the hills closest to Delhi.

Questions Travellers Ask.
Everything we wish someone had told us before a first trip to Uttarakhand.
Mussoorie, Nainital and Rishikesh all work for a two-night weekend. We handle the drive, the safari permits or the rafting slot in advance so you lose no time on arrival.
Corbett safari permits open around 45 days in advance and premium zones sell out quickly for weekends and holidays. Book early.
Valley towns like Nainital and Mussoorie see heavy rain and occasional landslides between July and September. We recommend the Char Dham and higher routes only outside the monsoon.
