Delhi to Haridwar Taxi Service
Har Ki Pauri's evening Ganga Aarti is close enough now for a day trip — the new expressway has cut this drive to about a third of what it used to take.

Haridwar is one of Hinduism's seven holiest cities, sitting where the Ganga leaves the Himalayan foothills and enters the plains. Most visitors come for Har Ki Pauri, the ghat where the evening Ganga Aarti draws crowds of pilgrims every night, and for temples like Mansa Devi and Chandi Devi, both reachable by cable car.
Because the drive is now so short, Haridwar works well as a single day trip from Delhi — leave in the morning, take in the ghats and temples, and be back in Delhi by late evening in time to have caught the Aarti.
Road update: The Delhi–Dehradun Expressway opened in April 2026 with a direct spur into Haridwar, cutting the drive from roughly 5 hours to about 2. Some Delhi cab sites still quote the old timing — ours doesn't.
