Shuvadeep's 7 days trip to Somnath

Overall it was a very good trip, we were able to cover most of the places mentioned on the itinerary. Well planned and executed. Somnath and Gir was a very good experience. Dwarka was not that much good due to rush and crowd mismanagement. Transportation : Was very good, driver was very much helpful and understanding. Hotels : Dwarka, Somnath were exceptionally well with good restaurants. i would rate 4/5 for those places. Resort in Gir was not so good compared to other two places, ambience was great but room , pool were not so good. i would rate 2/5 due to cleanliness issues and restaurant not taking any orders was just having common buffet. Staff were helpful in all places, would rate 4/5.

Abhishekdudwadkar's 5 days trip to Somnath

Had a good experience for sightseeing areas of Gujarat and found it extra convenient and comfortable in Kia Carens. Driver was also good.. And special thanks to Payal madam for helping out in making itineraries. Hotels and their service were good except Shlok In where food service was not satisfactory otherwise it was nice. Just few suggestions it would be good if we can get an ordered list of places as per route with their timings. Because many places had their timings. Also, one will get an idea where to reach on which time and how much time to spend on particular spot.
