Char Dham is a group journey more often than not — sangathans, extended families, temple societies, neighbours travelling together. Splitting into four cars means four fares, four drivers, and a group that keeps losing each other on an eleven-day circuit.
A Tempo Traveller keeps everyone together, cuts the cost per head sharply, and gives you one driver who knows the whole route.

| Dham | Access | Usual Halt |
|---|---|---|
| Yamunotri | Drive to Janki Chatti, then a ~6 km trek (pony/palki available) | Barkot |
| Gangotri | Motorable right up to the temple | Uttarkashi / Harsil |
| Kedarnath | Drive to Sonprayag, shuttle to Gaurikund, then a 16–18 km trek (pony or helicopter) | Guptkashi / Sonprayag |
| Badrinath | Motorable up to the temple — no trek | Joshimath / Badrinath |
The dhams open around Akshaya Tritiya (late April/May) and close near Diwali (October/November). May–June and September–October are the best windows. Peak monsoon (July–August) brings landslide risk on Garhwal hill roads — we advise against it and will tell you honestly if conditions look bad.
How much does a Tempo Traveller cost for the Char Dham Yatra?
The fare depends on the seater (12, 16, 20 or 25), your dates and the exact itinerary. Call or WhatsApp +91-7830211223 for a flat all-inclusive quote covering fuel, driver, tolls, parking and state taxes.
What seater options are available for Char Dham?
Tempo Travellers in 12, 16, 20 and 25 seater, plus the Force Urbania (17 seater) for premium group comfort. The right size depends on your group and luggage.
Can a Tempo Traveller manage the Char Dham hill roads?
Yes, with an experienced driver. Handling a large vehicle on Garhwal's climbs and hairpins takes real skill, which is exactly why we put our most experienced yatra drivers on these bookings.
Is a Tempo Traveller cheaper than multiple cars for a group?
Considerably. One Tempo for 16 people costs far less than four separate cars, and the group stays together throughout the circuit.
Is Char Dham registration mandatory for the whole group?
Yes. Every pilgrim must be registered - registration is free and compulsory, and is checked at multiple points en route. We help groups complete it before departure.
Do the larger Tempo Travellers have pushback seats?
Yes, our larger options have pushback seating, which makes the long mountain days of the yatra considerably more comfortable.
