Dehradun to Kedarnath Badrinath by Maharaja Tempo Traveller
12 to 17 passengers · air-conditioned · driver and fuel included
The Dehradun to Kedarnath and Badrinath tempo traveller circuit covers two of the four Char Dhams in one spiritual journey spanning approximately 450 km through the Garhwal Himalayas. From Dehradun, travel via Rishikesh to Devprayag and Rudraprayag. The first leg follows the Mandakini valley to Guptkashi and Kedarnath — a 16 km high-altitude trek to the 3,583m Jyotirlinga shrine set against the Kedarnath peak and Chorabari Glacier. After returning to Guptkashi, the circuit continues from Rudraprayag along the Alaknanda via Karnaprayag, Nandprayag, and Joshimath to Badrinath (3,133m), the sacred abode of Lord Vishnu. This route passes through all five Prayags (sacred river confluences) that define the spiritual geography of Garhwal. Mana Village near Badrinath — India's last inhabited village before Tibet — has the mythological Bhim Pul and Vyas Gufa where sage Vyasa is believed to have written the Mahabharata. Groups should plan at least 5-6 days with overnight halts at Guptkashi, Kedarnath (or Sonprayag), Joshimath, and Badrinath.
In short
A maharaja tempo traveller from Dehradun to Kedarnath Badrinath costs ₹26 to ₹30 per kilometre depending on the seater, over roughly 450 km and about 5-6 days circuit 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.
