Jolly Grant Airport to Rishikesh Taxi Service
Jolly Grant Airport to Rishikesh Taxi Service
Welcome to The Urban Cabs, the premier choice for your Jolly Grant Airport to Rishikesh taxi service. Rishikesh, globally renowned as the "Yoga Capital of the World" and a hub for adventure sports like white-water rafting, is located very close to the Dehradun Airport. Whether you are visiting for a spiritual retreat at an Ashram, an adrenaline-pumping rafting expedition in Shivpuri, or simply to witness the mesmerizing Ganga Aarti at Triveni Ghat, our taxi service ensures you reach your destination comfortably and safely.
The distance from Jolly Grant Airport to Rishikesh is approximately 20 to 25 kilometers. The drive is relatively short, usually taking between 35 to 45 minutes, but traffic bottlenecks at Ranipokhari or the entry points to the city (like Nepali Farm) can affect travel time. Unlike public transport, which drops you at the bus stand far from the main hotels, booking a private cab with The Urban Cabs guarantees a door-to-door drop-off. We service all major areas including Tapovan, Laxman Jhula, Ram Jhula, Muni Ki Reti, and the luxury resorts in Shivpuri and Mohanchatti.
We understand that travelers to Rishikesh come from diverse backgrounds—from international yoga students carrying heavy luggage to elderly pilgrims visiting for Char Dham Yatra. Our fleet is diverse enough to cater to everyone. We offer economical Sedans (Dzire, Etios) for solo travelers and couples, spacious SUVs (Ertiga, Innova) for families, and Tempo Travellers for large groups. All our vehicles are well-maintained, air-conditioned, and driven by locals who know the intricate lanes of Rishikesh, ensuring you are dropped as close to your hotel or ashram as possible.
Booking with The Urban Cabs is seamless and transparent. You can pre-book your ride online or via phone call to avoid the hassle of negotiating with taxi drivers at the airport arrivals terminal. Our 24/7 airport transfer service means we are always ready, whether your flight lands at dawn or late at night. We pride ourselves on offering fixed pricing with no hidden charges, so you can enjoy your journey through the scenic foothills of the Himalayas without worrying about the meter.
Safety and local expertise define our service. Our drivers act as your local guides; they can suggest the best times to visit the Beatles Ashram or the Neer Gaddu Waterfall. We prioritize hygiene, ensuring every car is sanitized before pickup. Whether you are heading to the high-end Ananda in the Himalayas or a backpacker hostel in Upper Tapovan, The Urban Cabs is your reliable travel partner.

The taxi fare typically starts from ₹1000 to ₹1200 for a standard Sedan car. SUVs like Innova or Ertiga generally cost between ₹1500 and ₹1800. Prices vary slightly based on the drop-off location (e.g., Tapovan is further than the main city).
How long is the journey from Dehradun Airport to Rishikesh?
It takes approximately 35 to 45 minutes to travel the 21 kilometers from Jolly Grant Airport to Rishikesh. However, reaching areas like Shivpuri or upper Tapovan might take an extra 15-20 minutes depending on traffic.
Can the taxi drop me directly at my hotel in Tapovan/Laxman Jhula?
Yes, we drop you as close to your hotel as possible. Please note that some areas near Laxman Jhula and Ram Jhula are pedestrian-only zones or have restricted vehicle entry. In such cases, our driver will drop you at the nearest accessible point (like the Parking stand).
Do you provide taxis for Shivpuri rafting camps?
Absolutely! We provide drops to all major camping and rafting sites in Shivpuri, Marine Drive, and Kaudiyala. Since these are further from the main city, the fare will be slightly higher than a standard Rishikesh drop.
