Gujarat Pilgrimage: 9 Nights from Dwarka to Somnath
10
Days
9
Nights
Gujarat packs a remarkable density of experiences — Asiatic lions at Sasan Gir, the Somnath shore temple, Rann of Kutch's salt flats at full moon, and Ahmedabad's Sabarmati Ashram. This 9-night journey through Ahmedabad, Rajkot, Dwarka, Somnath hits the highlights with expert pacing.
About This Trip
Gujarat packs extraordinary variety into one state — the white salt desert of the Rann, the last wild Asiatic lions at Sasan Gir, the ancient maritime city of Diu, and deeply sacred pilgrimage sites at Dwarka and Somnath. This 9-night, 10-day itinerary covers Ahmedabad, Rajkot, Dwarka, Somnath, Mount Abu, Udaipur with 3 Star / 4 Star properties accommodation throughout. Daily breakfast is included at every hotel, so every morning starts well regardless of where you are. Transfers between cities and to all sightseeing sites are arranged from the moment you arrive to the moment you depart.
What You Will See
The sightseeing programme covers Shree Ranchhodraiji Maharaj Mandir, Swami Narayan Temple, Rotary Dolls Museum, Bala Hanuman Temple, Dwarkadhish Temple, Nageshwar Jyotirling Temple, and more along the way. Each site is visited with an expert local guide who knows the stories behind the stones and the best times to visit before the midday heat sets in.
Accommodation
Your hotels are 3 Star / 4 Star properties selected for location and quality. In a heritage city, a well-chosen 3-star property often means a haveli conversion or a business hotel within walking distance of the main sites. In a resort destination, the same category delivers a pool, structured meals, and a helpful front desk that genuinely knows the area. You sleep well; you wake up ready.
Meals
Daily breakfast is included at every hotel. On days when additional meals are on your own, your guide will point you toward the right local restaurants — the ones that have been feeding travellers for decades rather than just opening last season. Gujarat's food culture is one of its underrated gifts: Gujarati thali with dhokla, khandvi, undhiyu, and the famous Ahmedabad street food at Manek Chowk.
Book Your Dates
Departures run across multiple dates with flexible pricing. Confirm your travel dates early — Gujarat packages in this range fill up quickly around festival seasons and school holidays.
