Tour overview
The Do Dham Yatra by helicopter takes you to Kedarnath and Badrinath in four short days. You begin at Dehradun. Your helicopter then carries you to Kedarnath and to Badrinath. At each dham you get darshan of the Lord. Every night you rest at a good hotel.
This yatra is made for pilgrims who want the two most loved dhams of Uttarakhand, but do not have many days to spare. The road journey takes many hours of hard driving. By helicopter you save that time and that tiredness. You fly over snow peaks and green valleys. You reach each temple fresh and ready for darshan.
We take special care of senior citizens. Our ground team meets you at every helipad. They walk with you and help you at each dham. You are never left alone on this holy journey.
Do Dham Yatra by helicopter from Dehradun is made for pilgrims who want the two most loved dhams of Uttarakhand, Kedarnath and Badrinath, but do not have many free days. In four days your helicopter carries you to both dhams and brings you back to Dehradun. You get darshan at each dham and rest at a good hotel every night.
On the first night you stay at Hotel Hyatt Regency in Dehradun. You fly over the high peaks of the Himalayas and see them from close. You get a special evening puja at Kedarnath and join the Sandhya Aarti at the Badrinath temple. Our ground team meets you at every helipad and every temple, and looks after senior citizens with extra care.
You can hold your seat for 10,000 rupees for each person. This amount is fully refundable if we are not able to secure your seat. The route may change a little with the weather, as all helicopter flying depends on clear skies in the high hills.

Today you reach Dehradun. Our team picks you up at the Dehradun airport or the railway station and takes you to Hotel Hyatt Regency, a five star hotel set among the Malsi forest and the hills near Mussoorie. You can rest or see the local sights on your own. In the evening our team meets you at 7:30 pm in the hotel lobby and briefs you about the yatra. Please remember that you can carry only 5 kg of luggage for each person in the helicopter, in a small duffle bag that we give you.
Today your flying starts at about 12:30 pm, so please leave your hotel by 11:30 am. Because of heavy helicopter traffic at Kedarnath, you may change to a shuttle helicopter at the Sersi helipad. You land in the Kedar valley and our team helps you check in near Kedarnath. Then you go up to the Kedarnath temple, about 500 meters away, at 11,500 feet, so please walk slowly. We arrange a special darshan for you. In the evening our team arranges a Rudrabhishek and special puja at the temple. Tonight you rest at a hotel near Kedarnath.
Today your helicopter takes you towards Badrinath. Soon after take off you get a close view of the mighty Chaukhamba peak, and if the sky is clear you may see the Nanda Devi peak near Joshimath. Badrinath sits at 10,000 feet, between the Nar and Narayan hills, by the Alaknanda river. After you land, our team takes you to Hotel Sarovar Portico. In the evening you join the Sandhya Aarti at the Badrinath temple, the high point of your Do Dham yatra.
Today after breakfast you go for a short trip to Mana village, about 3 km away, where Maharishi Ved Vyas is believed to have composed the Mahabharata in the Vyas cave. A short walk brings you to the Bhim Pul, a stone bridge that stands without any support. Your helicopter then takes you to Dehradun and lands at about 2:45 pm, and our team drops you at the Dehradun airport or the railway station. Please book your return flight or train after 6:00 pm, because weather can delay your return to Dehradun.
