Barsana Tour
Affordable Divine Travel
Starting at ₹3,500 / Sedan car
Lifting the Veil of Samsara
The Govardhan hill is not just a geological formation; in the Braj tradition, it is considered a non-different form of Lord Krishna Himself. Performing the Parikrama (circumambulation) of this 21 km hill is a physical and spiritual discipline that devotees perform to seek mercy. Coupled with the visit to Barsana—the home of Srimati Radharani—this tour covers the "Two Pillars" of Divine Love.
Epic History
Learn about the 7-day battle between Indra and Krishna that led to the lifting of the hill.
Pure Devotion
Barsana is the only place where Radha is the supreme authority, even above the local administration of temples.
