Day 01 : Delhi/Rishikesh
Morning drive to Rishikesh (224 kms / 5-6 hrs) enroute visit Haridwar
 Haridwar is considered very holy, as this is the point from where the Ganges
emerges from the Himalayas to begin its slow progress across the plains. The
main ghat 'Har ki Pauri' (the footsteps of God) is suppose to be the precise
spot where the Ganges leaves the mountains and enters the plains.
Consequently the river's power to wash away sins at this spot is superlative
and endorsed by a footprint of Vishnu left on a stone here.

GANGES - Once a private garden-retreat of the Maharajas of Tehri Garhwal, it
