11 Days Gujarat Madhya Pradesh Tour Package from Bangalore
Tour overview
This Gujarat Madhya Pradesh tour package from Bangalore links two great pilgrim regions with an overnight train, so you can cover four Jyotirlingas in 11 days: Nageshwar and Somnath in Gujarat, and Mahakaleshwar and Omkareshwar in Madhya Pradesh.

Which Jyotirlingas does this tour cover?
Four: Nageshwar near Dwarka on day 4, Somnath on day 5, Sri Mahakaleshwar in Ujjain with the Bhasma Aarti on day 10, and Omkareshwar on day 11. That makes it a strong Jyotirlinga tour package from Bangalore for devotees who also want to see Dwarka and the Statue of Unity.

On day 8, after the Statue of Unity, the group boards an evening train at Vadodara and travels overnight to Ujjain in 2nd class sleeper, which is included in the package. You reach Ujjain early on day 9 and freshen up at the hotel before the Ujjain Omkareshwar leg begins.
Do we need to book the Bhasma Aarti ourselves?
Witnessing the Bhasma Aarti at Sri Mahakaleshwar around 4 am is part of the day 10 plan. Special sevas at the Ujjain temple are booked online by passengers themselves, so ask our team when you book and we will explain what to arrange.
