What is the best route and distance from Delhi to Mathura Vrindavan?
Quote from Ajay Sengar on April 6, 2026, 10:10 amMathura is approximately 145 km from Delhi and takes 2.5 to 3 hours by road. The best and most direct route is Delhi to Mathura via NH19 Yamuna Expressway — a smooth, well maintained expressway with minimal traffic even during peak hours.
From Mathura, Vrindavan is just 15 km further making both towns easily coverable in a single comfortable day trip from Delhi.
Leave Delhi by 5 AM to arrive in Mathura by 7.30 AM, catch the morning aarti at Dwarkadhish Temple, walk down to Vishram Ghat, and reach Vrindavan by 10.30 AM for Banke Bihari Temple darshan before the afternoon crowds arrive.
For groups of 10 or more, a tempo traveller on rent in Delhi is the most flexible option — no fixed bus schedules, freedom to stop at any temple, and door to door service from your Delhi pickup point directly to the temple entrance.
