Darshan & Travel Tips for This Tour

  • Phones, bags and cameras are not allowed inside Krishna Janmabhoomi – leave them in the car with our driver.
  • Banke Bihari is very crowded on weekends and festivals – weekday mornings are calmer.
  • Dwarkadhish closes in the afternoon – plan it for the morning or evening.
  • Reach Vishram Ghat 20–30 minutes before the evening aarti for a good spot.
  • Boat rides are best in the evening; they may stop when the Yamuna is high in the monsoon.
  • Most Braj temples close for a few hours in the afternoon – our driver plans darshan around these breaks.
  • Dress modestly; shoes come off at every temple, so socks help on hot marble floors in summer.
  • Try Mathura peda, kachori-jalebi and lassi – the driver knows clean, popular places.

Best Time for This Tour

October – March

Best weather for darshan and sightseeing. December–January mornings can be foggy on the expressway, so we start a little later.

April – June

Hot afternoons – plan darshan in the early morning and evening and rest in AC in between.

July – September

Monsoon greenery, Jhulan Utsav and Janmashtami. Festival days are very crowded – book early.

Holi (Feb – Mar)

Lathmar Holi in Barsana and Nandgaon and flower Holi in Vrindavan – cars sell out, book weeks ahead.

    Hired their services for 2 days Mathura, Vrindavan and Agra tour. The car was excellent condition. I always say this - your tour is either good or bad depending on the driver and I am very happy we were assigned Ravi bhaiya. He was an amazing, soft spoken and professional driver. We were very relaxed and enjoyed our selves in his company. I was traveling with my parents so their comfort was my primary requirement and I am glad I hired Mathura car services. The correspondence on the phone Gaurav ji is polite and speaks respectfully in all communications.

    We hired the taxi services from Mathura Taxi Service for a week during our Mathura Vrindavan and Agra trip. The vehicle provided was a good one and our driver Pavan Kumar Ji was very helpful and a reliable person. I would definitely hired their services if I plan any further visit to Mathura Vrindavan. The owner Mr. Gaurav Sharma Ji was very nice and polite. Best wishes for Mathura Taxi Service. :)
