Things To Do on Your Sasan Gir tour when you are in and around.
If you intend to keep your Sasan Gir trip cost-effective, make sure you check out the Veena World tour packages on offer. Here are a few things to do when you are in Sasan Gir for a tour: -
Gir Safari
The Gir safari package is the most essential attraction when visiting Sasan Gir. Listen to the safari guides for safety practices and keep your cameras handy for when you witness Asiatic Lions. It is the primary reason most people visit Sasan Gir.
Bird Watching
The park is also home to a variety of bird species which adds to the travel-worthiness of this place. Sasan Gir is an ideal place for all kinds of migratory birds, such as the endangered lesser florican and the saras crane, pygmy woodpecker, greater flamingo and Bonelli’s eagle. The best time to spot these birds would be from October to March, so don’t forget to bring your binoculars and camera for your Gir forest package.
Kamleshwar Dam
A rock-fill embankment dam on the Hiran River, the Kamleshwar Dam is located within the Gir Forest National Park and is officially known as the “Hiran-I Dam”. It was completed in 1959 for irrigation purposes however, it is also known for its population of birds and mugger crocodiles that make it a riveting place for sightseeing.
Tulsi Shyam Temple
Tulsi Shyam Temple is a tourist center that is dedicated to Lord Vishnu. The temple is located in the Gir forest surroundings which elevates the sense of tranquility about this place. There are three hot water springs at the location. Legend says that Lord Krishna eliminated the demon called Tul and so the place is associated with his name along with that of Krishna as Shyam and thus known as Tulsi Shyam. The statue of Tulsi Shyam here is believed to be some 3000 years old. Sasan Gir tour packages by Veena World let you get valuable insights, especially during group tours where our professional and knowledgeable tour managers accompany you.
Tribal Settlements
This dense forest known for its majestic Lions is also home to the Maldhari and Siddi tribes. While planning to meet the lions at Gir National Park, you must include visiting these tribal communities in your itinerary so that you can learn about their way of life, the festivals they organize every year, and their rituals and traditions.
Devalia Safari Park
Twelve kilometres west of Sasan Gir is the ‘Gir Interpretation Zone’ or the Devalia Safari Park. To curb the tourist pressure on Gir National Park and to cater to tourists who are unable to get safari permits because of the crowds, the eco-tourism department of Gujarat has created a distinct area known as the ‘Gir Interpretation Zone’.
Island Visit
Merely 65 km from Gir is the union territory of Diu which is a small island off the coast. It is a place where you can take a walk on a sandy beach and see for yourself how grand the ocean is. It would be perfect for a visit throughout the year for all age groups. Your Sasan Gir trip is bound to feel incomplete if you don’t add this to your itinerary.
Breeding Centre for Crocodiles
Here you can experience how crocodiles are bred and learn more about their role in the ecosystem, and their conservation right here in Gir. You can mostly see marsh Crocodile species in the Gir Forest and nearby regions. A must-visit who are intrigued by reptiles.
Somnath Temple
A must-include in your Sasan Gir holiday package, the Somnath Temple is located along the coastline in the Saurashtra region of Gujarat. The temple is one of the twelve Jyotirlingas that are the sacred abode of Lord Shiva. The temple has a rich history, having been rebuilt multiple times over the centuries due to various invasions and destructions.
Hot Air Balloon Rides
Some tour operators offer hot air balloon rides over the Gir Forest, providing you with a bird’s eye view of the landscape and wildlife for a reasonable price on a Sasan Gir tour.
Girnar Hills
Girnar is a sacred mountain near Sasan Gir with a cluster of temples and a challenging trek. It is one of the most significant holy pilgrimage centres for Hindus and Jains to add this to their Sasan Gir tour packages. There are five peaks in the Girnar range that have a collection of many Hindu and Jain temples.
Junagadh Fort
If you are interested in history and architecture, you should take a trip to Junagadh Fort which is approximately 60 km from Sasan Gir. It has a rich historical legacy and stunning architecture.
Wildlife Photography
Sasan Gir offers ample opportunities for you to capture unique glimpses. Booking a Sasan Gir tour package during the summer season is the best time for photography because it would bring all the animals to the reservoirs to quench their thirst.
Star Gazing
The clear night skies in Gir are ideal for star gazing. Unlike cities, Gir has very less or no light pollution at all. You can bring your telescope to see the beauty of Cosmos or you can simply lay back and ponder in this vast expanse of cosmic ocean during your Sasan Gir package.
Best Time to Visit Gir National Park
The Gir National Park closes during monsoon so you can visit this place from October to June. However, November to March is the peak season to visit Gir as the weather is pleasant with daytime temperatures ranging from 10 to 20 degrees making it comfortable for safaris. The vegetation is also less dense, making wildlife sightings easier and gives you a good reason to include Sasan Gir holiday package on your next vacation.
