Hello i am planning to reach rishikesh on 30th June so wont be fitting any of your scheduled departures. We will be 3 members. 1 female and 2 males all in twenties. We are planning for Valley of Flowers and Hemkund Sahib only. How much time will it take from Rishikesh and back? I will be travelling from Bangalore.
Hello Subhra,
You will need at least 6 days and 5 nights from Rishikesh. You can visit our Valley of Flowers trek itinerary page for more details.
Many thanks for your immaculate efforts in bringing forth this blog and site. This is very helpful and motivating. I am also a nature lover and have traveled a lot. Many time on this way in my car also but unfortunately never happened to visit the Valley due to timings. I am now planning to visit the valley with my wife and your trip from 11th to 17th August suits me. Sir, my query is what will be the costings for two for the trip and what places are covered & hotels/stays will be provided in the trip of 7 days. I will prefer coming in my own car. Will be very glad for your early response
.
cost may change with time so can not be put here but is always available to everyone. Just fill in you form at Valley of Flowers contact us page and you will get a detailed mail, kindly mention your phone number so that we can talk over phone. Else call me at +91 9992756910 any time.
Hello Devkant,
I and 2 of my friends are planning a trip at Valley of Flowers on august 2nd weak. I have got most information from this website but can you confirm me about the car fare from haridwar to govindghat?
and if I only take car for dropping, if there is any problem to return time from badrinath to haridwar?
The public transport is really pathetic in the area. So just getting dropped is not at all a good idea. I also organize trip to Valley of Flowers, you may join my group. Although I will be out for another trek from tomorrow and will be available from Tuesday only you may call me at +91 9992756910 at any time. I know there will be lots of questions to be answered.
Hi
I want to be in Valley of Flowers on Aug 22nd(being my birthday)
I will travel along with my parents(60+), my wife(we both in our 30s) and my 11-month old baby. we will drive till the last motorable point and from there we would like to trek/take mule/take helicopter.
Could you please advise what will is the cost included for helicopter/hiring mule-porter/trek?
where can we leave our car at the last motorable point. is there any parking place/security area?
how much would it cost from the last motorable point to come back to that point ?
when should we start from delhi if we have to be in Valley of Flowers on aug 22nd.
Hello Vinny Williams,
This is nice idea. Unfortunately I do not have any fixed departure which will serve the purpose. Following are the answers to your questions.
Taking senior citizens is not a problem you can read this travelogue by one of our senior citizen customer. But I will not recommend you to take your 11 month old baby but still if you want to take him you may hire a porter.
Cost of taking Helicopter between Govindghat and Ghangaria is Rs. 3500 one way (Last year’s price). Hiring mule for a day will cost you Rs. 800 But this varies with demand and supply. Porter will also cost you same as mule.
Last Motor able point is Govindghat but I will not recommend you take your own car for the trip. Although there are public parking available at Govindghat. If you want I can help you in getting rooms at Ghangaria and Govindghat and give you vehicle from Haridwar. To reach Valley of Flowers from Delhi on 22nd you should start from Delhi on 19th August. You may have a look on this page for detailed itinerary from Haridwar.
I tried to answer all your questions but if you left with some more questions ( I am sure you will have more questions) you can ask me here or may call me at +91 9992756910.
Hi Devkant,
I am quite keen to visit this heavenly place. I have few questions though:
How and by when would you confirm the trek as I have expressed interest.
What is mode of payment?
You have asked for a doctor consultation. But generally anyone can visit the place or you suggest any particular medical test?
This trip is exaclty what I have been searching for. Would love to join. Kindly respond.
Regards
Hello Bhavani,
I called you up and answered your questions, but for the information of everyone your questions are answered as follows. A seat in the trek is confirmed once client pays Rs. 5000 in advance. To make payment he can deposit the amount in my bank account. The details are given on our contact us page. The balance amount can be paid on arrival. As far as doctor consultation is concerned, a person who is a senior citizen or having breath problem or altitude sickness should get it done. This advice is for your own safety.
Last year a person who aged 63 also accompanied our group. You may read his experience and see pictures here. You are most welcome for the trip.
