Haridwar to Rishikesh Taxi Service 2026
Quick Answer: Rishikesh is only about 25 km from Haridwar — roughly a 45 minute drive. One-way Sedan fares with Anywhere Taxi Service start at a flat ₹1,199, with drops at Laxman Jhula, Tapovan, ashrams or your rafting camp. Available 24/7 — call 7830211223.
The twin pilgrimage towns of Haridwar and Rishikesh sit just 25 km apart, and a Haridwar to Rishikesh taxi is the quickest, most comfortable way to travel between them — far easier than shared autos or crowded buses, especially with luggage after a Ganga Aarti evening.
Most travellers do both towns in one trip: the aarti at Har Ki Pauri, then rafting, yoga or the Laxman Jhula bridges in Rishikesh.
