Junagadh Tour Packages – Forts, Girnar & Living Heritage

Timeless forts, sacred hill temples and a gateway to lion country—Junagadh tour packages deliver Gujarat at its most authentic. If you’re shortlisting Gujarat travel packages, Gujarat holiday packages, or a custom Gujarat trip package, Junagadh deserves a prime spot. From the ramparts of Uparkot Fort to the Jain temples on Girnar and the Indo-Islamic elegance of Mahabat Maqbara, every day blends architecture, devotion and old-world bazaars. With A2Z Trip, you get verified stays, dependable chauffeurs, and curated sightseeing that turn a good plan into a great holiday.

Why Junagadh?

• Uparkot Fort & Stepwells: Walk through gates that have stood for centuries, then descend to the photogenic Adi-Kadi Vav and Navghan Kuvo—ancient stepwells carved into rock.
• Girnar Hill & Ropeway: A revered pilgrimage with panoramic views; the temples and forests around Girnar give Junagadh its spiritual heartbeat.
• Mahabat Maqbara (exteriors): Onion domes, ornate jalis and European influences—an iconic façade for your lens.
• Ashoka Rock Edicts: Glimpses of Mauryan history preserved on stone.
• Sakkarbaug Zoological Garden: Conservation-focused enclosures and a legacy linked to the region’s wildlife story.
• Easy Extensions: Sasan Gir for Asiatic lions, Somnath for coastal darshan, Diu for beaches, and Porbandar/Rajkot for city breaks—perfect bolt-ons to Junagadh.

With our local expertise, we stitch together smooth travel days and realistic sightseeing windows—so you see more and rush less.

Best Time, Ideal Duration & Trip Types

• When to go: October–March offers pleasant weather for forts, temples and city walks. Travel is possible year-round with sensible planning for heat/monsoon showers.
• How long: First-timers often choose 2N/3D for highlights or 3N/4D with a Girnar sunrise and Sasan Gir day trip. Pilgrims may add an extra night for Girnar or Somnath.
• Who it suits: Families, senior travellers, culture lovers, pilgrims and photographers comparing Gujarat tour packages and looking for genuine heritage, not just big-city gloss.

How to Reach

• By Air: Convenient access via Rajkot, Porbandar or Diu airports, then a comfortable road transfer to Junagadh.

Operations can vary with weather/maintenance. We plan your ascent window and keep a backup schedule ready.

Yes, as a taster. For a full safari experience, consider adding a night near Sasan Gir; all safaris depend on forest permits and availability.

We keep core packages flexible. Entry tickets, special pujas and dedicated guides are usually extra—add them on request.

Very. We pace sightseeing, suggest lift/ropeway options where possible, and choose centrally located hotels to reduce walking.

5) What should I pack?

Comfortable walking shoes, modest temple attire, sun protection and layers for cool evenings. Carry government ID for hotel check-ins and any regulated sites.

6) Can I club Somnath or Diu with Junagadh?

Absolutely. Many travellers bolt on Somnath for coastal darshan or Diu for a relaxed beach night. Our 8N/9D top seller (₹33,000 pp) includes both.
