This price usually covers helicopter transfers, VIP darshan at the Chardham temples (Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath, and Badrinath), meals, and accommodations for the journey. However, exact rates can vary by season, operator, and additional services offered. It’s best to contact a trusted travel provider for the latest rates and package options.

The easiest way to start your Chardham Yatra by helicopter from the USA is to book an international flight to Delhi or Mumbai, then take a connecting domestic flight to Dehradun’s Jolly Grant Airport. From Dehradun, our char dham helicopter booking team will transfer you to Sahastradhara Helipad, where the Chardham heli yatra (Chardham helicopter yatra) officially begins.

On average, you’ll spend about 35–45 minutes in the chopper each day, though this varies slightly with weather and route. For instance:

Dehradun → Yamunotri (Kharsali Helipad): ~35 minutes
Yamunotri → Gangotri (Harsil Helipad): ~40 minutes (with a brief landing at Barkot if needed)
Gangotri → Kedarnath (Phata Helipad): ~45 minutes (sometimes punctuated by a safety check at Srinagar Garhwal)
Kedarnath → Badrinath (Phata → Guptkashi → Badrinath): ~50 minutes, including refueling/helipad transitions
Badrinath → Dehradun: ~40 minutes, often via a brief stop at Pipalkoti helipad
Each leg is part of our 4 dham yatra by helicopter itinerary, ensuring you maximize time at the temples rather than on the road.

The primary differences are time, comfort, and convenience:
