In short: Mata Vaishno Devi Yatra is a 2-night, 3-day tour from Jammu that also covers Jammu, Katra and Bhairon. It starts in Jammu and ends in Jammu. It includes daily breakfast. The itinerary can be customised.
This is a suggested day-by-day plan. Timings, the order of sightseeing and hotels are confirmed with your quote.
A yatra registration (RFID card) is compulsory for every pilgrim; it is free at the Katra registration counters or online. The climb is about 13 km each way; ponies, palkis, the battery car and the Bhairon ropeway are paid locally, and helicopter seats are booked separately on the Shrine Board portal.
Our representative meets you at Jammu airport or station. On the way up, stop at the Kol Kandoli temple at Nagrota, where, by tradition, the goddess spent her early years, then reach Katra (about 50 km). Pick up your RFID yatra card at the registration counter and rest early. Overnight stay in Katra.
