The Delhi government is set to launch a tourist cruise service on the Yamuna River from December 2025, which will offer a new tourist attraction to the capital. This electric-solar hybrid cruise will operate on a 6-7 km route from Sonia Vihar to Jagatpur.

After a long wait, Delhi residents will now be able to enjoy a cruise experience within the capital. The Delhi government has finalised a plan to launch a tourist cruise service on the Yamuna River. This service is set to commence in December 2025, which will not only boost tourism but also offer a new attraction to Delhi. The Delhi Tourism and Transportation Development Corporation (DTTDC) has completed the tender process for this project, and a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the operator will be signed soon.

Under this ambitious plan by the Delhi government, a cruise service will be launched on the Yamuna River along a route of approximately 6-7 kilometres, from Sonia Vihar (Wazirabad Barrage) to Jagatpur (Shani Mandir). This journey will offer tourists a close-up view of the natural beauty of the Yamuna and Delhi’s historical sites.
