Complete Guide to Rishikesh Trip Cost
Rishikesh, the Yoga Capital of the World, is just 240 km from Delhi — a scenic 5 to 6-hour drive via Meerut and Haridwar. This adventure paradise on the banks of the Ganga combines spirituality, adventure sports, and hippie cafe culture into an unforgettable weekend getaway.
A 2-3 day Rishikesh trip from Delhi is surprisingly affordable. The base costs — cab, food, and basic accommodation — are quite low. The variable is how many adventure activities you choose: rafting alone costs ₹600-1,200, while bungee jumping is ₹3,550, and a camping package with meals runs ₹1,200-3,000.
With Triveni Cabs, the drive to Rishikesh takes about 5 hours at ₹11/km. Having your own cab means you can easily visit both Rishikesh and Haridwar, stop at Rajaji National Park, and reach activity spots like Shivpuri (the rafting start point) without relying on expensive local autos.
Budget travelers focused on yoga and spirituality can do Rishikesh for under ₹5,000 including cab sharing, ashram stays (₹500-800/night with meals), and free ghat experiences. Adventure seekers should budget ₹10,000-15,000 for rafting, bungee, camping, and other activities on top of travel costs.
