These towns have a special place in the heart of devotees of Lord Krishna and every nook has a story related to his childhood and divine lilas. If you want a well planned trip that covers all the important places and lets you explore without stress, then Mathura Vrindavan Tour Packages are the best way to plan your visit.
Jaipur to Mathura Vrindavan Distance
The distance to Mathura is 223 km from Jaipur. The road journey takes 4-5 hours depending on the traffic. The best way to reach Mathura is via Agra-Jaipur Highway, which is a direct road to Mathura. Many travellers prefer Tempo Traveller rental, private taxis or bus rentals as they are comfortable and don’t stop multiple times.
Trains are another option, many trains run daily between Jaipur and Mathura Junction. The fastest train takes 3.5 hours, so if you want to avoid road travel, rail is a good option. For budget travellers, government and private buses run regularly between Jaipur and Mathura. If you plan properly you can reach Mathura in the morning, visit temples in the day and return in the evening or the next day after visiting Vrindavan.
How to Plan Mathura Vrindavan Trip from Jaipur?
Plan well and you will visit all the important places without feeling rushed. Best is to start early in the morning so you reach Mathura before the temples get crowded. Spend the first half of the day exploring the ghats, shrines and local markets of Mathura. After lunch head to Vrindavan so you can experience the temple atmosphere in the evening aartis.
Some people prefer to visit during Krishna Janmashtami as the entire town is lit up with devotion, music and colours. If you are staying overnight book a hotel near the main temple areas so you can attend early morning prayers without having to travel long distances. Hiring a local guide can also be helpful as they can take you to the lesser known spiritual places which many tourists miss. Be flexible and you can spend more time at places that inspire you.
Mathura Vrindavan Tour from Jaipur Itinerary

- Next stop is Dwarkadhish Temple where the Krishna idol is decorated with colors and ornaments.
- Take blessings and then walk along Vishram Ghat, the most important ghat of Mathura. This is the place where Krishna is believed to have rested after defeating Kansa. The view of the Yamuna River along with devotees performing rituals creates a very sacred moment.
