What you can expect

Discover the spiritual charm and natural beauty of Rishikesh on this immersive full-day sightseeing tour designed especially for international travellers seeking culture, history, and authentic local experiences.

Join the morning meditation and yoga session(entrance fees not included), where visitors from around the world come to experience spiritual awakening.

Your journey begins at the iconic Ram Jhula, a historic suspension bridge offering panoramic views of the sacred Ganges and surrounding temples. Feel the peaceful atmosphere as pilgrims and sadhus cross the bridge against a backdrop of Himalayan hills.

Next, visit Laxman Jhula, one of the most famous landmarks of the city. This legendary bridge is believed to stand at the spot where Lord Lakshman crossed the river. Enjoy stunning river views and vibrant street life nearby.

Continue to Gita Bhawan, a spiritual complex known for its devotional atmosphere, bookshops, and peaceful riverside setting. Then explore the serene environment of Parmarth Niketan Ashram, one of the largest ashrams in the region, famous for yoga, meditation, and spiritual teachings.

You may also choose to visit the legendary The Beatles Ashram (optional; entrance ticket not included), where The Beatles once stayed in 1968. The graffiti-covered meditation halls and forest setting offer a unique cultural experience.

Relax at a peaceful Ganga Beach, where you can sit by the holy river, dip your feet in its cool waters, and absorb the tranquil energy. Later, explore the colourful local market, perfect for shopping handicrafts, spiritual items, jewellery, and souvenirs.

The day concludes with the mesmerising Ganga Aarti ceremony at sunset. Watch priests perform sacred rituals with lamps, chants, and devotional music as the river glows with floating diyas—an unforgettable spiritual experience that captures the true essence of Rishikesh.

End your day with a peaceful evening stroll along the banks of the Ganges. The river is calm, and the surrounding area is quiet, making it a perfect way to wind down after a full day of sightseeing.
