240 km via the Nashik highway. About 5 hours. Same-day round-trip or 2-day overnight package. We've run this route for three generations — most popular booking on our calendar.
For families that want to attend the Kakad Aarti at 4:30 AM, we depart Mumbai at midnight to 1 AM and reach Shirdi by 5:30 AM. Our route-trained chauffeurs have done this drive hundreds of times — they know the petrol pumps, the food stalls open at 3 AM, and the temple parking layout.
For a more relaxed darshan, families typically leave Mumbai at 6 AM, arrive Shirdi by 11 AM, take the afternoon darshan, and return home by 9 PM. Same-day round-trip — no overnight stay required.
Many of our Shirdi bookings extend by one day to cover Shani Shingnapur (75 km from Shirdi — Saturday is busiest) and Trimbakeshwar Jyotirling (180 km from Shirdi). Some families also add Nashik Kumbh ghats and the Sula winery on the same circuit. Multi-temple Crysta package from ₹16,500 (2-day) including all driving and bata.
