With a vibrant shoreline and an easily negotiable countryside, a holiday in Gujarat is a flamboyantly diverse experience that can surprise even the all-knowing Indomanic. It will take more than a couple of day tours to unearth the historic and cultural gems carefully concealed from the masses. Gujaratis are well-known for their consumerist behaviour, both home and overseas. Bump into an Indian anyplace, from Iceland to Washington, and it is highly likely that they come from this extremely prosperous and ingenious state. As you search for a suitable accommodation, you will find that the hotels in Gujarat too echo the frugal yet friendly nature of its natives. And of course remember to stick to vegetarian foods and reread the prohibition laws even as you plan a holiday in Gujarat.

It doesn’t matter where you want to go in Gujarat. You will have no trouble in finding top class hotels in Gujarat within budget. If craving for a bit of nature and wildlife, you may like the island of Kutch in the north western Gujarat. It slips into craggy mode of salt plains by the approaching summer. Local weavers create the finest fabrics in the entire country by combating the vindictive aspects of Little Rann. But animal lovers and bird watchers love this place for a reason. This is where you can catch a glimpse of wild asses grazing lazily and watch flocks of flamingos with their wonderful scarlet plumage waddling here and there.

Then there is the verdant Saurashtra, only a couple of hours drive from the Kutch. It is so remote that you doubt your chances of going back to where you have come from. But strangely, you won’t mind. This place is something out of a history book with bullock carts bounding along with doti clad farmers. Before heading back, try to fit in Ahmedabad in your itinerary too. The frenzied air of Ahmedabad is a drastic change from the rustic experience so far. Undeniably, some of the best hotels in Gujarat are in Ahmadabad. But do remember to pay homage at the ashram of Mahatma Gandhi (Father of Nation).

What makes your holiday in Gujarat extra gratifying is the fact that it is so amazingly free of the hordes of touts and travellers who plague all the beaten routes. The hotels in Gujarat do convey one thing. This place is mostly for the daring explorer who doesn’t groan at the lack of luxurious spa or state-of-the-art ambience tagged with the stay. But this seems to be changing recently. Strewn around the state are some hip resorts and old-palace-turned-hotels that have risen already. One thing is for sure. This vacation will be a vacation trigger to reinstate your sense of awe.
