True, if you have gone to Gujarat and haven’t seen Kutch then you have not seen anything!

"Kutch Nahi Dekha to Kutch Nahi Dekha"

The most awaited journey of my life because Its only open for few months (Nov to Feb every year) so you have to plan accordingly. From the childhood whenever we listen desert then we have an imagination of an area which covered with brown sand but Kutch, It's only desert which don't have brown sand insted it is "white Salty desert" of India and also it is reputed to be the largest salt desert in the world.

Day 1

We started our journey to Kutch from Pune. There are two option :

1st either go to bhuj direct and then further (Bhuj to Kutch: 74 KM)

2nd or go to Ahmedabad frm there you have to go Bhuj ( Ahmedabad to Bhuj : 331KM) and further (Bhuj to Kutch: 74 KM)

There are 3 modes available for travel

Air: Book Flight to Bhuj or Ahmedabad

Train : Book Train to Bhuj or Ahmedabad

Bus : Book Bus to Ahmedabad or Bhuj

Kutch is the place which is not very much developed so I prefer to book whole package which was awsome and I thought I had taken the best decision.

We already Booked Package by "TENT CITY" I think this is the best package for anyone who want to visit there.

Day 2

Their package start from Bhuj and yes they also drop back to Bhuj.

As we reach Bhuj we find that they have their tent @ Railway station where you can go and show them booking details they also provide washroom and refreshment Tea to relax yourself. Then they tag you belonging so that they deliver those luggage directly into your tent. After they put tag you dont have to worry about your luggage you will get as you reach in your tent.

When we saw first thing is in mind that why people say Kutch ni dekha to kuch ni dakha Yes its true it suits to the place because I travel a lot but this kind of thing I see first time I saw mountains , beaches and Dessert as well but this is diffrent. We walk towards it and as far as we see there is oonly white rann. Its look like white sheet on ground. We stay there and saw Sunset It was a mesmerizing moment for me.

Next morning we have to wake up early to see Sun rise but we were so tired so we missed it and wake up for breakfast because we have already made a plan for this day as well so after breakfast we go and take their buses which going to show some imporatant places and drop back to bhuj.

We started our journey to see some important place in bhuj which I wrote in my next blog because after bhuj we go to Mandvi Beach as well. So I wrote a seprate blog for this day.

If you want you can go and see some other places in Bhuj or near bhuj. Otherwise they drop back to their Raiway station' s Tent so you can go back to your home But I suggest you have to visit some more places near Bhuj.

*When they drop you back to bhuj and your train bus or flight is delay so you can sit in their Tent at the railway station.
