Day 1 (17-06-2025)

The activities of a fun day planned for you will begin at around 9:00 AM when our chauffeur will pick you up in an AC car and take you for the much-awaited Ahmedabad city tour. The first stop in our day-long trip would be the wonderful Akshardham Temple. Located in Gandhinagar, the divine temple is dedicated to Lord Swaminarayan and has five halls with informative exhibitions about the Hindu heritage and values.
Next, we will take you to the Sidi Saiyyed Mosque, one of the most popular mosques in Ahmedabad. It is constructed in the form of an arc and features the ‘Tree of Life’ which is a latticed window design. Additionally, the stone carvings make for stunning elements that have endured the test of time and are a testament to the excellent talent of the artists.
The next spot in our Ahmedabad sightseeing tour will be the Hutheesing Jain Temple. The ornate temple is dedicated to Dharmanatha—the 15th Jain Tirthankar. Created out of pristine white marble, the structure displays the Maru-Gurjara style of architecture that adds a unique charm to it. We will continue the trip and head to the Sabarmati Ashram. Also known as the Gandhi Ashram, the place holds historical significance as it was the abode of Mahatma Gandhi for several years. You can spend some time here, exploring the peaceful premises brought to life by green trees and the sounds of birds and squirrels.
For the last leg of the tour, we will take you to the Adalaj Stepwell. The stepwell was built by Queen Rudabai and, hence, it is also known as Rudabai Stepwell. It is a 7-story deep architectural masterpiece. Adorned with intricately carved wall designs, the stepwell is one of the most fascinating tourist attractions in Ahmedabad.
After exploring all these places, our driver will drop you at your destination, and your Ahmedabad city excursion will come to an end.
