Exclusive visit of Narmada Tent City

This Independence day, celebrate Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav right in the heart of The Iron Man of India.

India’s diverse festivals, which commemorate a range of cultures and customs, are a testament to the country’s glorious past. Although there are festivals every day of the year, the country is at its most alive from August to January. The planned holidays allow you to arrange for a cross-country excursion.

When you are in Gujarat, it’s time to plan a quick escape and slip out of the city while the scorching sun is taking a back seat and festival season is almost here. 

What if we told you that you may now enjoy luxury while experiencing an adventure?

A hero like Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, known as the IRON MAN of India, was born in the land of Gujarat.
