Mount Abu Tour Packages

Mount Abu is Rajasthan’s only hill station, rising to roughly 1,220 metres in the Aravalli Range on the state’s southwestern edge, close to the Gujarat border. That elevation gives it a character unlike anywhere else in Rajasthan: cooler air, forested slopes, and a pace built around lakes and viewpoints rather than desert forts and palaces — which is exactly why it draws travellers looking to pair Rajasthan’s heritage circuit with a genuine change of scenery, and why it’s long been a favoured weekend retreat for travellers from nearby Gujarat as well.

A BizareXpedition Mount Abu tour package is built around the town’s two defining landmarks. The Dilwara Jain Temples, built between the 11th and 13th centuries, are widely regarded as among the finest examples of marble carving in India — the ceilings, pillars, and toranas inside temples like Vimal Vasahi and Luna Vasahi are carved with a level of intricacy that photographs struggle to capture, which is part of why a private, unhurried visit matters here. Nakki Lake, the town’s other centrepiece, sits right in the heart of Mount Abu and is wrapped in local legend — the name comes from “nakh” (nail), reflecting a belief that the lake was dug out by the nails of the gods — and it’s the natural anchor for boating, an evening walk, and the town’s busiest promenade.

Beyond the town centre, a Mount Abu itinerary typically reaches out to Guru Shikhar, the highest peak in the entire Aravalli Range at around 1,722 metres and home to the Atri Rishi Temple, along with Sunset Point, Achalgarh Fort, and the Mount Abu Wildlife Sanctuary that wraps much of the surrounding hillside. Because Mount Abu sits apart from Rajasthan’s main Jaipur-Udaipur-Jodhpur circuit — closer, geographically, to Udaipur and to Gujarat than to the desert cities further north — BizareXpedition plans it either as a cool, restful add-on at the end of a Rajasthan trip or as part of a dedicated Gujarat–Rajasthan combination, whichever suits your route.

Why Book Your Mount Abu Tour With BizareXpedition?

Every BizareXpedition itinerary is built from scratch for one traveller, one couple, or one family — never sold as a seat on a shared coach. In Mount Abu, that means a private guide who can walk you through the Dilwara Temples’ carved marble at a pace that respects both the site’s detail and its no-photography rule inside the shrines, a driver who handles the winding Aravalli approach roads comfortably, and a schedule that leaves room for an unhurried evening at Nakki Lake or a properly timed visit to Sunset Point rather than a rushed group stop. It’s the difference between ticking Mount Abu off a list and actually feeling the shift from desert heat to hill-station calm.

What Does a Mount Abu Itinerary Include?

A typical BizareXpedition Mount Abu package includes transfers from Udaipur or Abu Road, a private vehicle with driver for the full stay, hotel accommodation on your chosen tier, daily breakfast, and guided sightseeing across Nakki Lake, the Dilwara Jain Temples, and the main viewpoints. Excursions to Guru Shikhar, Achalgarh Fort, and the Mount Abu Wildlife Sanctuary can all be built in as add-ons.

What’s Included vs. What’s Optional

How Many Days Do You Need for Mount Abu?

Mount Abu works well as a short, focused hill-station break of 2 nights, or as a slightly longer stay when combined with the wildlife sanctuary and Guru Shikhar.

Every duration is fully customisable — how much time goes to the temples and lake versus the surrounding viewpoints and sanctuary is built around what you want to see.

What Are the Mount Abu Package Tiers?

BizareXpedition structures Mount Abu packages across three tiers, each private and tailor-made:

• Premium — Comfortable 3-star hill-view hotels, a private vehicle, and all core sightseeing — a well-run, hassle-free trip without excess.

• Luxury — 4-star and boutique lakeside or hillside properties, upgraded vehicle options, and a more curated pace with added excursions like Guru Shikhar and the wildlife sanctuary.

• Ultra-Luxury — Premium resort-category stays with the best available views over the Aravallis, a premium vehicle with an experienced driver, private guides throughout, and fully bespoke arrangements.

Exact pricing depends on travel dates, accommodation selection, and group size — reach out for a tailored quote for your preferred tier and season. Because Mount Abu is one of Rajasthan’s most popular romantic getaways, our Rajasthan honeymoon guide is a useful reference if you’re planning it as part of a couple’s trip.

When Is the Best Time to Visit Mount Abu?

Mount Abu is unusual among Rajasthan destinations in that it stays comfortable across a much wider stretch of the year, thanks to its elevation. September through June generally works well, with October to March being the coolest and most popular window — cool enough some winter mornings for a light jacket, which is a rare thing to say about Rajasthan. Even April through June, when the rest of the state is at its hottest, Mount Abu stays noticeably cooler than the desert cities below, making it a genuine hot-season escape. The monsoon months (July–September) turn the hillsides a deep green and swell Nakki Lake, which some travellers actively seek out despite the rain.

Can the Mount Abu Tour Be Combined With Other Destinations?

Yes. Mount Abu is most commonly combined with Udaipur, given the relatively short road connection between the two, and it also works naturally as the Rajasthan leg of a longer Gujarat itinerary — we run a dedicated Gujarat and Mount Abu tour package for travellers who want to cover both regions in one trip. Some itineraries extend further to include Ajmer or loop back through Rajasthan’s wider heritage circuit. For general planning across the state, our Rajasthan travel guide is a useful reference for how Mount Abu fits alongside the rest of Rajasthan.

Good to Know Before You Go

A handful of practical facts that shape how a Mount Abu itinerary is planned:

• Mount Abu is Rajasthan’s only hill station, sitting apart geographically and climatically from the rest of the state’s desert and palace cities — it’s the one part of Rajasthan where a jacket in the evening is a genuine possibility.

• The Dilwara Jain Temples date back to the 11th–13th centuries and are known for some of the finest marble carving in India; photography is not permitted inside the temple shrines, so a guided, unhurried visit matters more here than at most sights.

• Nakki Lake’s name comes from “nakh” (nail), tied to a local legend that the lake was carved out by the nails of the gods — it remains the social and geographic heart of the town.

• Guru Shikhar, at around 1,722 metres, is the highest peak in the entire Aravalli Range, not just in Mount Abu, and is topped by the Atri Rishi Temple.

• Mount Abu is closer to Gujarat than to most of Rajasthan’s other major cities, which is why it’s long been a popular weekend and honeymoon destination for travellers from Ahmedabad and the rest of Gujarat as well as from within Rajasthan.

• The Mount Abu Wildlife Sanctuary surrounds much of the town and is home to leopards, sloth bears, and a range of birdlife — a genuinely different kind of sightseeing from the temples and lake.
