Dehradun to Kedarnath by Maharaja Tempo Traveller
12 to 17 passengers · air-conditioned · driver and fuel included
The Dehradun to Kedarnath tempo traveller pilgrimage takes your group from Uttarakhand's capital through the majestic Garhwal Himalayas to the sacred Jyotirlinga at 3,583m. Travel via Rishikesh along the NH7, following the Ganges and then the Alaknanda through the picture-postcard confluence towns of Devprayag and Rudraprayag. At Rudraprayag, the route branches along the Mandakini River valley towards Agastmuni and Guptkashi — a serene temple town with panoramic views of the snow-clad Chaukhamba massif where groups typically spend the night. From Guptkashi, early morning drive to Sonprayag and then Gaurikund (1,982m) begins the 16 km pilgrimage trek alongside cascading waterfalls, bamboo groves, and rhododendron forests. Ponies and palki (palanquin) services are available for those who find the trek challenging. The stone temple of Kedarnath, believed to be over 1,000 years old, survived the devastating 2013 floods — a testament to its ancient engineering — and the massive Kedarnath peak towers behind it at 6,940m.
In short
A maharaja tempo traveller from Dehradun to Kedarnath costs ₹26 to ₹30 per kilometre depending on the seater, over roughly 250 km and about 9-10 hours of driving. Fuel and an experienced driver are included; tolls, parking and state permits are billed at actuals. A one-way drop is charged at the same per-km rate as a round trip, because the vehicle still returns to base empty afterwards.

Drive times are realistic door-to-door estimates in normal traffic rather than best-case figures. Hill sections and holiday weekends change them, and we plan departures around that instead of discovering it on the day.
