Kumbh Mela Tour
Join our Kumbh Mela tour! Travel through North India visiting important Hindu pilgrimage sites. We attend the auspicious Kumbh Mela in Haridwar.
The Kumbh Mela is sacred Hindu pilgrimage that takes place on a rotation basis at four locations in India: Prayag (Allahabad, at the confluence of three rivers-Ganges, Yamuna and Saraswati), Nasik, Haridwar and Ujjain.
The pilgrimage occurs every three years, once at each of the four locations. The sixth year is Ardh Kumbh (half). The 12th year is Maha Kumbh.
Enjoy comfortable and easy travel. Stay in five star hotels in Varanasi and Lucknow. The accommodation in Haridwar is a beautiful traditional haveli, right next to the banks of the Ganges River. One of our esteemed Hindu guides will accompany our tour.
Explore the Mela on Magh Purnima (full moon day). Be there during the most exciting time, the main bathing dates!
