Statue of Unity Package
from Gandhinagar
At about 218 km, Gandhinagar is close enough to Kevadia that a day trip is genuinely comfortable if you leave early — no overnight required unless you'd rather take it slow. Either way, we split the cost into three honest parts: private taxi, an optional overnight stay, and the Classic Day Package sightseeing.
The Real Distance from Gandhinagar
Gandhinagar to the Statue of Unity is approximately 218 km, and takes roughly 4 to 4.5 hours by road. You'll sometimes see a claim of around 3 hours for this route — treat that as an optimistic, non-stop estimate rather than the realistic norm, especially once you factor in city traffic on the way out of Gandhinagar and Ahmedabad. The most straightforward drive runs Gandhinagar → Ahmedabad → Anand → Vadodara → Kevadia/Ekta Nagar, largely along the NE1 Expressway and NH 48 corridor.
Our honest advice
This is a comfortable day-trip distance if you leave early — unlike the longer routes from Rajkot or further afield, 218 km each way is manageable in a single day. That said, staying one night lets you catch the Narmada Maha Aarti at dusk without rushing the drive back in the dark.

Choose Your Taxi
Real partner transport, priced per vehicle, not per person. Prices below are one-way, point-to-point fares — message us for round-trip pricing on the Gandhinagar route. See the full Private Taxi & Transport page for details.

A standard AC sedan — the most economical option for couples and small families, and a natural fit for a Gandhinagar day trip.
Ertiga

Choose Your Stay (Optional)
Gandhinagar is close enough for a comfortable day trip, so this step is optional — skip straight to sightseeing if you're driving back the same evening. If you'd rather not rush the drive back in the dark, add a night at one of these tiers.
