Gujarat was quieter than I expected and the camp was comfortable. Worth every rupee.

Gujarat was quieter than I expected and the camp was comfortable. Rooms were comfortable and the locations meant we could walk most evenings. No hesitation recommending them.

Sightings were thin on our dates, which is luck, but the drives felt rushed.
