Customer Review
Seema Praveen Modi Badrinath Yatra

I had always wanted to make my parent’s dream of going to Badrinath into a reality. Thanks to yatra by heli that dream came true. We booked our badrinath by helicopter package online and spoke to our tour manager. She asked us everything and designed the package as per our request. The trip was fantastic. My parents had a great time during the helicopter ride and even the aarti darshan, VIP darshan was epic. The fact that the manager was assisting us throughout was a bonus. There were no hassles or issues of any sort. I am glad we chose yatra by heli. Good luck!
