India is a land of rich culture, diverse religions and age-old traditions. Being one of the prominent religions of the country, Hinduism has an immense influence on India’s lifestyle, architecture and culture. The country has magnificent temples, holy shrines and sacred pilgrimages. Char Dham Yatra is among the most revered and holy Hindu pilgrimages. The Char Dham tour refers to visiting India’s four holiest sites - Badrinath in Uttrakhand, Puri in Odisha, Rameshwaram in Tamil Nadu and Dwarka in Gujarat.

As per the Hindu mythology, going on the Char Dham Yatra even once in your lifetime will wash all your sins away and give you freedom from the everlasting cycle of birth. Booking a Char Dham Yatra package in advance is the wisest course of action to plan a peaceful and convenient tour. Take into account all your needs and choose a Char Dham Yatra tour package that includes all your requirements.

The best Char Dham Yatra tour packages offer a golden chance to satisfy your religious appetite, witness the rich Hindu culture and explore the mesmerising natural beauty of the country.

Visiting Uttarakhand’s most sacred spots - Gangotri Dham, Yamunotri Dham, Kedarnath Dham and Badrinath Dham - is also included in the Char Dham Yatra packages. Touring these four places is also known as ‘Chhota Char Dham Yatra’. The Badrinath Dham, located along the shores of Alaknanda River, is the first destination on the Char Dham itinerary. Rudraprayag, Hemkund Sahib, Guptkashi and Surya Kund are some other popular places around Badrinath Dham that you can visit with a Char Dham tour package. Puri Dham, situated at a distance of 60 km from Bhubaneshwar, is the second site on the Char Dham tour. You can also visit Narendra Pokhari, Gudicha Temple and Puri Beach located near Puri Dham. Rameshwaram Dham is the next place in the pilgrimage. A good Char Dham package will let you explore Dhanushkodi Temple, Agnitheertham, Pamban Bridge and Jatayu Tirtham. Dwarka Dham, renowned for the ancient Dwarkadhish Temple, is the last stop of the holy pilgrimage. A visit to Beyt Island, Dwarka Beach, Gomti Ghat and Gopi Talav are a few highlights of good Char Dham Yatra tour packages.

Best time to visit Char Dham

All four Dhams remain open from April to October. The best season to visit Char Dham is summer and spring. May-June and September-October are the most favourable time to go on the Char Dham tour. You should avoid a Char Dham Yatra in July and August since going during monsoon can be quite risky and inconvenient. The landscapes and sights become even more beautiful just after the end of monsoon season.
