Book Your Lucknow to Vaishno Devi Tempo Traveller on Rent

Katra, the base for the Vaishno Devi shrine, is around 1,100 km from Lucknow via Delhi, Jalandhar and Jammu. It is a long overnight drive, and a tempo traveller on rent in Lucknow lets a family or a group of devotees travel together instead of coordinating trains to Jammu and then road transport to Katra.

The yatra itself is a 13 km climb from Katra to the Bhawan, done on foot, by pony, or by helicopter from the Katra helipad. Most groups stay two nights in Katra: one to rest after the drive and one after darshan, which makes the return journey far less punishing.

Our 13, 17 and 26-seater tempo travellers, Force Urbania, Tata Winger and mini bus are air-conditioned and serviced before the trip. Drivers know the Katra bus stand, the yatra slip counters and where large vehicles can park while you are on the mountain.

Why Choose Us

Why Book a Tempo Traveller for the Vaishno Devi Yatra?

A 2,200 km round trip with a mountain trek in the middle needs reliable transport and sensible halts, not a rushed itinerary.

payments

One Fare for the Group

Train tickets to Jammu plus taxis to Katra add up quickly for a group. A shared tempo traveller keeps the total predictable.

Drivers Who Know Katra

Yatra slips, the bus stand, the helipad and the parking areas are all familiar, so you spend less time figuring out logistics.

account_balance

Rest Before and After the Trek

With the vehicle parked at Katra, you can rest a day before climbing and another after darshan before the long drive home.

FAQ

Lucknow to Vaishno Devi Tempo Traveller FAQs

Quick answers to the questions we hear most often about this route.

How far is Vaishno Devi from Lucknow and how long does it take?
add
Katra, the base town for Vaishno Devi, is about 1,100 km from Lucknow via Delhi, Jalandhar and Jammu. The drive takes around 18 to 20 hours, so most groups travel overnight.
What is the tempo traveller fare from Lucknow to Vaishno Devi?

How many days should I plan for the yatra?

Yes. Yatra slips are issued at the counters in Katra, and RFID cards are used for tracking on the route. Carry a valid photo ID for every member of the group.
Can the tempo traveller go up to the Bhawan?
