Delhi to Mathura-Vrindavan Taxi Tour — 1 Day Trip

150 km from Delhi • Uttar Pradesh • Complete 1-day itinerary

Mathura and Vrindavan sit 150 km down the Yamuna Expressway, close enough to do in a single day and rich enough to hold you for three. Mathura is Krishna's birthplace, and the Janmabhoomi temple complex is the anchor; Vrindavan, 12 km on, is where he is said to have grown up, and it is a town of temples — Banke Bihari with its curtained darshan, the marble scale of Prem Mandir lit up after dark, ISKCON, and the older Radha Raman and Nidhivan. Timing matters more here than anywhere else we drive: Banke Bihari shuts between the morning and evening darshan windows, and the lanes around it are closed to cars. Our drivers know the parking points and the walking routes from them.

Sightseeing and road conditions

Sightseeing is subject to the opening days and hours of each monument. We are not responsible if a monument, temple or park is closed on the day of your visit.

In some places the local taxi union does not allow outside vehicles for local sightseeing — in Ladakh, and for Rohtang Pass in Manali. There, the local sightseeing is done in a local taxi, paid separately.

Journey times may be affected by traffic, police or administrative restrictions, VIP movement, processions, strikes or road works, and we are not responsible for delays or itinerary changes caused by them.

In the event of a landslide, flood, heavy snowfall, earthquake or any other natural occurrence that closes a road or a monument, we are not responsible for the resulting delay, detour or cancellation. Any additional running or halt on that account is charged as per actual.
