From Noida, updated October 2026

12 Weekend Getaways from Noida

Mathura, Vrindavan and Agra are day trips on the Yamuna Expressway from Noida, while Rishikesh, Jim Corbett, Lansdowne and Nainital are weekend drives that skip Delhi altogether.

Noida, Greater Noida and Ghaziabad start right on the Yamuna Expressway and NH9, which makes Agra and Mathura and Vrindavan some of the easiest day trips in the region. Heading east and north, Jim Corbett, Lansdowne, Nainital and Rishikesh are weekend drives that skip Delhi altogether.

For longer trips, the overnight Volvo to Himachal and flights from Delhi airport work exactly as they do from Delhi, with group pickups from Noida, Greater Noida West or Indirapuram planned in.

Getting the group there: Group trips can start from Noida sectors, Greater Noida, Noida Extension or Ghaziabad, with a Tempo Traveller or coach. The pickup point is agreed when you book.
