How is Bus Travel in INDIA? The Journey to Rishikesh
Thanks to visit India.
Love from India 🙏
I arrived in Haridwar in the evening like you did and it was my FIRST SOLO TRIP in India and the beginning of a life-changing adventures. The next day when I saw the Ganga river I was simply a-m-a-z-e-d, then I caught a vikram (20rupees) to Rishikesh where the whole course of my journey in India changed as after that I quit my scholarship in Delhi to travel for the remaining 6 months... :))) River views in Rishikesh are stunning
Sweet. I've been coming to Rishikesh since 1999. I've spent several months here altogether, not even sure how many times I've visited. When were you in India?
I'm not surprised, I'll definitely keep coming back there. I was in India for 9 months from August 2016 till May of this year :)
I see, cool.
Reborn In India hello mam, please visit india again. hope you had a good time here
Reborn In India Rishikesh,,the holy mans hair,,
I'm glad you went there so I can just WATCH online and that's IT!
Cool. :)
Just incredible that's all I have to say. Watched to the end: what a view from your room!
With a view like that Gabe can do yoga right from his private balcony.
321192ify 😂
hey Gabriel hope you are having a great day! ty for posting!
at1304 the scene of the river, you cannot guess looking at a video how the vibrations and feeling there are like. The closest i can say is that you get a sense of awe you get a sense of the timelessness of the river as if the waters have flowed into present times from thousands of years ago.
That was a million dollar view you got for 15 bucks 👍😁
Totally.
Go to the lakshaman jhula at about 1 am in the morning. Stand there in the middle of the bridge for half an hour. Trust me you won't be disappointed.
P. S: have some cheap bread worth 10 rupees and feed it to the dogs when they bark. They will become friendly again.
My God that spot at the end is amazing, and for only $15 a night.
Wow the view!!! Amazing !! great video :)
You are now eligible for an Aadhaar card. Lol
@Sateesh, Yes indeed, Gabe definitely deserves the card.
anybody saw a cop hitting biker with a stick at 5:55
I was wondering if anyone else caught this, I wonder what caused this now that I've seen it lol
The Gaian Mind he is breaking the traffic rules.
BHARATH V R Thank you for clarifying!
The Gaian Mind Welcome
yup as garry said...good eye
5:54 epic moment lol😂😂
😂🤣😂🤣😂
Beautiful, i enjoyed that video, very educational and great footage.
One of your best videos Gabriel. Great content, music and editing....felt like I was there.
Cool, glad to hear it.
Amazing video .....thanks for posting ...what was going on at 5:55 .great looking view from your room worth the extra money ...
Not sure what happened there. I didn't even notice it at the time, not until I'd finished the video and watched it back.
That is how India traffic work
Dude awesome vlog. Subscribed. 🤗
Cool, thanks.
It is time Gabriel gets voting rights in India......He shows the good and bad sides of India and it seems like he keeps coming back to see whatever has changed.
Gab !! Man i am so so addicted watching your Vlogs ....I think its time for you to go for Indian citizenship..you know entire in and out of this country now 🤓
Gabriel what is the name of the hotel in Rishikesh what a amazing view you have there definitely worth the extra money I watch the whole video I felt like I was travelling it with you I miss India. And one day I will be back
It's called Dev Ganga.
Damn, that view though. I could sense the effect it had on you by the end of your journey. Awesome stuff and enjoy! :)
Thanks for sharing 🙏
i am indian live in rajasthan and meet many tourist who visit rajasthan but didnt visited rishikesh i always say that rishikesh is much better place from every point of view . i always try to go there once a year
Loved this, it gave me a feeling that I am in Rishikesh, which is somewhere I would really like to go. I am bound to a job here in the states. I am on a spiritual path and do yoga. Shivananda, Anand Mehrotra, maharishi mahesh yogi, Sachidananda, etc all masters whose wisdom I value all have roots in Rishikesh. Thank you for your travel videos. They really give us the feeling like we are there with you.
The starting footage from the bus was Akshardham!! Very beautiful place to visit ... You must check that out...😊
Yeah I thought so. I visited there once, pretty awesome.
I wonder if we'll get so far so that one day we can live stream what we see on traveling like people do it with video games on these days.
Your videos are very entertaining and inspiring.
Thank you so much to visit. i visit Rishikesh after every one or two months i like that place so much😍😍👍👍👍
Another great video, simply loving it. Keep it coming. Never been der but hoping to b der soon.also nice story telling and the icing on the cake, the view from your hotel balcony
I watch your alll video.your travel video is like a movie
I have been busy traveling and preparing for the holiday's but I really need to catch up on these videos.
That's awesome, where have you been traveling?
Fantastic videos me and my wife are travelling to Delhi then across to Kathmandu looking forward to seeing the real India on trains, buses and tuc tucs
The plethora of knowledge you possess about India can put even many Indians to shame, including me, I last visited this place in 1996, its the same, the way of storytelling is something very distinct which I believe makes one addictive to your videos, have a grt time in Himalayas !
Hello Gabriel, I have seen almost all of your videos. I am from Delhi. I will suggest whenever you go to Rishikesh, take room in Parmarth Ashram. It is quite cheap and much better.
when you ask for rishikesh bus you seem perfect traveler in india it comes with expereince.
Oh man, this is getting better by the day......that was an epic view and the restaurant - don't ever leave that place, Gabe......settle down, get married......it's about time, I'm sure your family will agree....:-)
What has this to do wit my comment?
He's on weed.
I was replying to some one else. I don't know how this is happened.
I sorta gathered that, happens to best...:-)
Yeah but if I settled down the videos would be SO BORING. ;) It'll happen eventually but probably not in the near future. You never know. Maybe I'll find a woman who loves to travel and then she'll help make the videos more interesting.
Just a small advice regarding bus travel in India. Wherever possible, prefer a Government owned bus over a private one. They are more reliable, punctual and cost-effective. I guess you travelled in Haryana State Roadways and Uttar Pradesh State Road Transport Corp (UPSRTC) buses in this one, both government owned. Keep up the good work :)
Haryana Roadways. yipeee
If you have time you can trek to the Gangotri glacier which is the source of the Ganges. The Gomuk - Tapovan trek has incredible views of the Gangotri group peaks including Mount Meru. Meru Central was first climbed by a team headed by acclaimed mountaineer Conrad Anker (The documentary is "Meru" which is incredible)
Traveling alone !!!! U r brave ,what a scene, come down south.
Good to see you back in Rishikesh again Gabriel. I watched some of your videos on Rishikesh before I went there.
It's a fantastic place, I absolutely love it there. One of my favourite places I've ever been to. I still haven't got round to editing my own videos and posting them though.
Its an amazing place. i live nearby 100km from Rishikesh in meerut and i love to visit every weekend there. Thousands of tourist visit there everyday and in weekends even more. Mesmerizing experience !!!!
I made this exact trip back in 2010 with my parents when I was 10yr old
I guess you know you're in Rishikesh when you see a random guy carrying a yoga mat, like the guy at 12:33.
have a great time in Hrishikesh.
greetings from Kolkata mate
Akki it's not h in the beginning of the word rishikesh.😉
Gabriel, have u experienced River rafting in Rishikesh? If not then you should give it a try. If yes then please share ur experience about it. Would love to hear from u!
Been gone a couple days and there's nothing better to come home to. Better than peaches and cream with ice cream, excellent job on everything. The last and this. Excellent Thanks
Most of us Indians also prefer to travel through Buses, Best choice to travel around from one place to another are Luxury Buses which are pretty comfy. Trains are just messy, delayed and too much of an inconvenience.
My personal reason though to travel in Bus is to experience the country side and nice breeze during long Journeys during the night when you travel. Not to mention you have a lot more privacy compared to noisy trains.
"Didn't book it just arrived and took the first bus" love it.. you free bird!
My previous trips to India I almost never booked a room in advance, just show up and find something. I'd been to Haridwar before, so I knew where the hotels were and that I'd have no problem finding something.
Fascinating place, thanks for posting Gabriel.
Last part of river was awesome..!!!
Hi Gabriel, I have watched quite a lot of ur videos and I love how u present things in ur videos. I appreciate ur honest reviews of things as well as the budget to be maintained. I appreciate the way u explain things. I hope ur altogether experience of India would have been remembering.
Mehul Bhatnagar yes he deserve more than this...he should do collabs....
I covered that route on a bike from rishikesh to haridwar ......
So u did a vrindavan Delhi haridwar rishikesh.. by bus
welcome in India
Volvo service are also available on this route in every 1 hr from ISBT bus station New Delhi
Bus & T-shirt color is matching 👌
Nice Gabriel.
Good to see foreigner like you take such ride (just like Indian local people).
Iast year I was also in Rishikesh for rafting. Rishikesh is very unique city, I must say.
I am just curious to know,
You are in Rishikesh for yoga?
I'm in Rishikesh for overall relaxation mostly, and maybe do some yoga.
come himachal
it will be a really wonderful experience
I've been to Himachal Pradesh a few times, love it there:
ua-cam.com/users/gabejedmosearch?query=Himachal+Pradesh
U r real traveller ....
Describe place very well
Another epic video! Yay!
5:54 the guy throwing a stick at the motorcycle was interesting.
Donald Kline You have pretty sharp observation man .He was a cop and perhaps he might have tried to stop them. For routine checking cum greasing palms .Since the rider was not wearing helmet he was either supposed to pay fine or bribe the cop .He took the last option and ran away often happening on Indian streets.Because our cops are no less than demons.
Congratulations :- New achievement unlocked in your life .
" TRAVELED IN HARAYANA ROADWAYS BUS "
Everytime you go to India I hope you go further to nepal.
You can visit Punjab Also
WOW! At 7:10 you say you have to find a room for the night!? You're a better man than I am, Gunga Din. I paused the video there so I could comment. Now, on to the rest.
You would have taken volvo ......go to the play store ....redbus app

Hello Gabriel. How is the smog/air pollution situation in Delhi? We were thinking about traveling there in December but have heard that the air there right now is not the best.
Marc Hauck I live in DELHI and it's fine now. Will be better after some days. Delhi is also Famous for it's Winters, wonderful ⛅ Sun. Right now we're on Rooftop our home and sitting into the Sun with Amazing food 😀
Yeah it was just a temporary situation due to the burning of crops by farmers. Air pollution in Delhi is always present of course being a massive city, but the recent news about it was an especially bad situation that isn't the norm. Good to hear from Pankaj that it's back to normal.
Pankaj Malik Thank you
Gabriel Traveler Thank you
Do not miss river rafting this place has to offer
Excellent Video..
Would love to see you travel throughout Brazil! All the off-the-beaten track cities
You have done excellent research about Indian transport especially bus station
Pls visit kasol.....Proper Himachal Pradesh.... Haridwar do not have big mountains....
Will ever hike the Himalayas again?
Definitely. And maybe soon. :)
Gabriel Traveler the Everest maybe? :-) just kidding...
Why not ...he will go Everest one day 💪💪 ...
I'm a vlogger too from Uttarakhand State, I also explored the same place😁😁😁
Nice video sir
That traffic policeman tho, hitting the bikers with his stick haha.
That is Haryana roadways you can say it jhaaj (aeroplane) because it run like plane on runway
Love the Doors sound track Gabriel
The songs are by MK2 and Kevin MacLeod, music info below the video. The Doors are awesome though.
Rs 350 was a lot. The cheapest train fare is Rs 190 from Delhi to Rishikesh. i think the UP transport buses would have been cheaper. Its almost a rupee for a km...a little less infact..so should have been Rs 225, but Im not sure.
Also, not sure how you got charged Rs. 39 for 20 kms?
Dehradun airport to rishikesh is also 20 kms and the bus fare is rs. 21...and that 21 rs. is in 2020
Such a nice video.. I think you enjoyed a lot... Can you please mention that what time you made this tour.. ? In which month?
In November, I filmed it just last week.
Nice video. Very fancy room you got there in Swarg Ashram area. Nice.
If u take yamuna expressway its only 3 hrs from mathura to delhi
Wow sweet hotel spot name please
Hi gabrial, I like your all videos! Keep it up continue! All the best!
very interesting, the situation is like Indonesia in the 1970's - 1980's
Hey Gabriel..fantastic to see your vedio in rishikesh..Gotta let me know if u happens to be in delhi again..Thanks
Its nice you are exploring more and more
I wad a kid when I had gone there with parents. I remember visiting Laxman Jhula, MansaDevi Temple, Chandi Devi Temple. Exhilarating experience.
Edit: Bro, could you please give e the name of the hotel you showed in the last part of the video and if possible, suggest what to ask to the reception for that river facing room?
I love your videos! Keep them coming!
Nice journey... Sometimes do visit Tuli -Nagaland (India)
