Eight-night Saurashtra pilgrimage from Bhuj to Dwarka, Somnath and Diu, with Asiatic lions at Sasan Gir.
Bhuj's two nights and the Saurashtra coast carry this eight-night Gujarat route, which runs from Ahmedabad through Jamnagar and Dwarka to Somnath, Diu and the Asiatic lions at Sasan Gir, a temple-and-coast loop that reaches the Kutch crafts town of Bhuj which the shorter siblings on this trail skip.
What you will see
Ahmedabad opens with the Siddi Saiyed Mosque, Sabarmati Ashram and Akshardham; Bhuj adds the Aaina Mahal, Prag Mahal and Chhatardi. The coast brings the Dwarkadhish temple on the Arabian Sea, the Somnath shrine and Diu's old fort, before a Gir National Park safari for the last wild Asiatic lions to close the run.
Stays and meals
Three-star properties cover all eight nights, chosen for location near the sites of each town. Daily breakfast is included, and on open meals the guide points you toward Gujarati thali with dhokla, khandvi and undhiyu, and the Manek Chowk street food in Ahmedabad, so the state's kitchens sit alongside its temples and wildlife.
