Should you start from Delhi or Haridwar?
If you can reach Haridwar easily by train (Shatabdi and Vande Bharat trains run from Delhi), starting from Haridwar saves two days and some cost. Start from Delhi if you are flying in, travelling with elderly parents who prefer door-to-door pickup, or want one vehicle for the whole journey.
