Frequently asked questions
Is helicopter for Kedarnath included?
Helicopter tickets are not included in the base price. We can add a heli shuttle from Phata or Sersi as an upgrade — typically ₹8,000–₹9,500 per person, subject to weather and availability.
What is the right time of year for this package?
May–June and mid-September to early November are the prime windows. We avoid the July–August peak monsoon due to landslide risk on the Uttarkashi and Rudraprayag routes.
Can you start from Delhi instead of Haridwar?
Yes — we offer the same itinerary as an 11-day Delhi-ex-Delhi package by AC tempo traveller or as a Delhi → Haridwar transfer + 10-day Haridwar package.
