About this trip
A private day trip out of Delhi to Kurukshetra, the land at the centre of the Mahabharata. It's built around the sites tied to that epic — temples, lakes and monuments that carry centuries of stories about duty, devotion and war.
The centrepiece is Jyotisar, the spot where Lord Krishna is said to have delivered the Bhagavad Gita to Arjuna. Beyond that you take in the holy lakes and older temples that make up Kurukshetra's religious landscape.
It suits anyone curious about Hindu mythology and history rather than those after a typical sightseeing day — the interest here is in the stories behind the stones, not just the stones themselves.
What you'll do
- Visit Jyotisar, where Krishna is said to have delivered the Bhagavad Gita
- See the holy lakes central to Kurukshetra's religious life
- Explore ancient temples linked to the Mahabharata
- Take in monuments connected to the epic's tales of valour and devotion
- Private and fully guided, so the day can move at your own pace
- It's a long day out from Delhi and back, given the distance to Kurukshetra
- Best suited to those with a genuine interest in Indian mythology and history rather than a general sightseeing trip
