Highlights of Uttarakhand Packages

From mountains that seem to kiss the sky and rivers that probably know where God lives, to people whose smiles can thaw the coldest of hearts, Uttarakhand’s beauty is incomparable. There are several reasons why one might want to visit this tiny slice of heaven. And with  India’s Uttarakhand packages, you can expect a smooth travel experience and an Uttarakhand holiday that you will reminisce for years to come.

We are often under the assumption that spiritual and adventurous tours need different travel destinations. Going for an Uttarakhand tour, however, turns this idea on its head. 

If your perfect holiday is one among nature with wildlife at an arm’s length, or if you fancy stepping into the divine pool and cleansing yourself until you feel renewed, then booking a Uttarakhand tour Package is the best option as the trip offers both of those experiences to you. From traversing the surging Ganges to jumping off a cliff and either freefalling or letting the winds lift you gently and help you soar through the blue skies, your Uttarakhand trip can be whatever you want it to be! 

How to Reach Uttarakhand

All three important travel options are available for you to visit Uttarakhand. The state has two domestic airports that can fly you in from all major cities of India like Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata and Chennai. Landing in the Jolly Grant Airport in Dehradun essentially means having the option to reach anywhere in Uttarakhand. Being only 22 kilometres from the city centre, this airport functions as a central point that has access to all the nooks and crannies of the state. For international passengers, it is suggested that you take a direct flight to Delhi and then hop onto another one that will carry you to Dehradun. People do not visit Dehradun only because it’s the easiest and fastest way to be in Uttarakhand. The other very significant reason for this choice is that Dehradun is stunning and it offers a quick entrance into Rishikesh, Haridwar, and even Mussoorie. Once you land at the Jolly Grant Airport, you can grab a window seat on the next bus and journey to one of these locations. The other airport is the Pantangar Airport which offers close proximity to covered hill stations in Kumaon like Nainital, Bhimtal, Ranikhet, Almora, Jim Corbett National Park and even Bareilly. 

If you wish to lap up the old-school charm of trains, then too your trip is sorted. The country’s major cities find themselves connected to the most picturesque hill stations in Uttarakhand by rail. There are 16 different stations that link up Uttarakhand to the rest of India. Only 2 kilometres from the city centre, the Dehradun Railway Station regularly sees trains from Delhi, Kolkata, Varanasi etc. making an entry or exiting the platforms at different times throughout the day.

If time is a luxury and it seems like a safer option to you because of the pandemic, then a road trip to Uttarakhand can be planned without breaking a sweat. Several national highways run through the state connecting it to other parts of the country. Uttarakhand trip by road would allow you to see the raw beauty of the scenes leading up to the gorgeousness that is Uttarakhand.

Best Time to Visit Uttarakhand

For those who might be sceptical, Uttarakhand will dress its mountain caps in snow and transform itself into paradise to lure you in.  An Uttarakhand tour during the monsoons may seem like a bad idea, but surprisingly it is not. The place shows a different side of its personality to you when you visit between the months of July and September. Imagine a rich velvety green spreading across you, every leaf drenched and looking fresh and full of life! Expect sighs of ecstasy to leave your lips constantly during your monsoon Uttarakhand trip.
