Getting to the Ashram

(KK TRAVELS are recommended for reliability etc. 3-4 hr. journey. Is safer and less tiring for first timers and relatively good value. Book online 7-10days in advance, receipt  issued online. If requested online then, pay in advance by VisaCard (ie you are protected) or else pay taxi on arrival at ashram.(You may be asked for payment before journey or when driver fills car with petrol) Maharaj says you don't have to tip the driver, is included in price.)
