Short Escape to Gir Tour

You have two options to reach Gir National Park. You can either directly drive to Gir from Rajkot. The journey is about four hours. The other option is to reach Junagadh from Ahmedabad, then continuing to the Gir Birding Lodge. On arrival, transfer to the hotel and complete the check-in. Now you can relax, and admire the lush, tranquil surroundings. Have a pleasurable stay in the comfort of the lodge.

After breakfast, your day is booked for wildlife safari at Gir. Also known as Sasan Gir, it is home to a vast variety of fauna and avifauna. You spend an extensive time in Safari where you can spot animals and birds such as lion, sambar, chowsingha, Indian fox, stripped hyena, jackal and so on. The park is home to as many as 200 species of birds including critically endangered white-backed and long-billed vultures. Later in the evening, back to the lodge for a warm dinner and to retire for the day.

You wake up for an early morning safari for the viewing of the wild animals as the chances are higher at this time. After savoring lunch, proceed to visit the crocodile farm and Devaliya. Back to the hotel for check-out and transfer to your onward destination. If you are directly going to Rajkot by road, then you start your journey back. But, if you are taking the train, then head out for Junagadh a bit later. Your short trip ends on a happy note.
