Delhi to Mathura Distance & Travel Guide

1. It is almost 180 km from Delhi to Mathura, and it takes generally 3.5–4.5 hours to get there by car if you take the Yamuna Expressway. This route is very nicely maintained, so the trip will be very comfortable and quick, thus great for kids and old people. If you leave early in the morning, you are likely to not get stuck in traffic and best of all, you’ll get to Mathura just in time for your calm and serene darshan session.

Vrindavan to Ayodhya Route Options

1. Vrindavan to Ayodhya is about 560–600 km and will take around 9–11 hours of traveling on average. The route that most people choose goes via the Agra–Lucknow Expressway, so you can expect to have a nice and smooth road with good places to rest. The trip is made much more comfortable if you travel overnight or leave very early in the day; this way you will get the most out of your long temple days without feeling too tired.

Ayodhya to Varanasi Travel Time

1. The distance between Ayodhya and Varanasi is approximately 220 km, and it usually takes around 5–6 hours to cover the trip on the road.
