Kunjapuri/Vasistha gufa Rishikesh Help needed

I am Planning to visit Rishikesh from 2oct afternoon to 4 oct afternoon.I have been earlier also to Rishikesh but never been to kunjapuri+Vasistha gufa.
I need advice on two things.
1. How to get there from Rishikesh.Is there any public transport as in case of nellkanth(Shared Jeep).
2. How much time needed to cover both the points as i have only 48 hours there in Rishikesh.
Thanks in Advance

welcome to IM,
kunjapuri is24 km from rishikesh. 6km after you cross narendernagar, there is a detour on right side. going 6 km you will find kunjapuri temple. from narendernagar you might get some conveyance or hire taxi from rishikesh
dont know about vashisht gufa

Vashistha Gofa is around an hour drive from Rishikesh on Devprayag road. You have to go down a bit from the road to get there.
