Mathura Vrindavan Tour by Bus: Cost, Route and Travel Time
Travelling by bus is still one of the more practical ways to cover Mathura and Vrindavan, especially for groups who'd rather not deal with multiple vehicles or split travel plans.
Shared Bus Packages
The cost of a normal bus package for a 2 or 3-day excursion is normally 6,000 to 10,000 rupees per head, which includes transport, accommodation and tours to temples.
Private Bus Booking
Opting for a private bus pushes costs higher, generally 15,000 to 25,000 rupees depending on group size and bus type, but it allows more flexibility on stops and timing.
Route Covered
Most buses take the standard highway route, with Mathura covered first since it's closer, followed by Vrindavan a short drive away.
Travel Time Between Cities
Once near the region, getting from Mathura to Vrindavan takes under an hour in most cases. The bigger time factor is usually the temple visits, since queues stretch longer during peak season.
Best Stops Along the Way
A typical Mathura Vrindavan bus tour usually covers Radha Rani Temple and Banke Bihari in Vrindavan, along with Dwarkadhish Temple in Mathura, and these are worth prioritizing if time is limited.
