Quick answer
A 3-day Ayodhya tour covers Hanuman Garhi, Kanak Bhawan and the Saryu aarti on day one, Ram Mandir darshan early on day two, and Nandigram on day three. It costs from ₹9,500 per person. Phones and bags are not allowed inside the temple, so use the free lockers. October to March is best.
Trip Overview
Ayodhya, the birthplace of Lord Ram on the Saryu river, has changed fast since the Ram Mandir opened in January 2024. This plan follows the traditional order: Hanuman Garhi first, then Kanak Bhawan and the evening Saryu aarti, with Ram Lalla's darshan on the second morning, when queues are shortest.
We handle what tires families out: pickup from Ayodhya airport, the railway station or Lucknow, a hotel near the temple zone, locker and queue guidance, pure vegetarian meals and wheelchair help for elders. Aarti passes are free but limited, so we help you apply once your dates are set.
