The four sacred shrines of Uttarakhand — Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath and Badrinath — flown in comfort over five days, with VIP darshan, 4-star stays, and oxygen on board.
For most pilgrims, the Char Dham is the journey of a lifetime. We believe the journey should honour that — not exhaust it.
The traditional road yatra covers nearly 1,600 km of mountain driving across 10–12 days. For many seekers, especially seniors, that is the hardest part of the pilgrimage. The helicopter yatra compresses the same four sacred darshans into a serene five-night circuit — flying over the valleys rather than grinding through them, with VIP darshan that respects both your time and the temple.
This is our flagship Yatra-tier departure. Every helicopter operator we fly with has been personally visited, their maintenance records inspected, and their oxygen-on-board policy tested. You carry the founder's number for the entire journey.
Morning helicopter from Sahastradhara helipad, Dehradun. Reach the Yamunotri sector; darshan at the source of the Yamuna. Overnight at a 4-star stay in the valley.
Fly to the Harsil/Gangotri sector. Darshan at the Gangotri temple, the origin shrine of the Ganga. Evening aarti by the river.
Helicopter to Kedarnath via Sersi/Phata. VIP darshan at the Jyotirlinga. Palki assistance arranged for seniors from helipad to temple (1.5 km uphill).
Fly to Badrinath, the abode of Lord Vishnu. VIP darshan, Tapt Kund, Mana village — the last village before Tibet.
Return flight to Dehradun. A buffer day is built in for weather — Himalayan flying is weather-dependent and we never rush a sortie.

The helicopter yatra is by far the most senior-friendly way to complete the Char Dham — but the 1.5 km uphill at Kedarnath and the altitude at Badrinath still need care. Our Sahayata service adds a trained companion, a calibrated medical kit, palki pre-booking, ground-floor rooms, and twice-daily WhatsApp updates to your family. Learn more about Sahayata →
