About this route
Ayodhya draws huge pilgrim traffic to the new Ram Mandir, Hanuman Garhi, Kanak Bhawan, and the Saryu Ghat for an evening aarti. From Varanasi by road it's around 200 km, long enough that an overnight is far more comfortable than a same-day rush.
We arrange the trip around darshan timings and your hotel's location in Ayodhya so the day is paced rather than hurried.
Planning notes
- 01If doing same-day, leave Varanasi by 5–6 am to comfortably fit darshan and return.
- 02A two-day plan is far more relaxed: overnight in Ayodhya, complete darshan in the morning, return the next day.
- 03SUV/MUV is recommended for the 5–6 hour drive. For groups of 6+, a tempo traveller is better.
- 04Darshan timings at Ram Janmabhoomi shift periodically. We confirm them before your trip.
Practical answers
Common questions for this route.
It's possible but long. A two-day plan with an overnight stay is far more comfortable for families.
