Nathdwara Temple Tour from Udaipur: Shrinathji & Eklingji

Two major temples and a 369-foot Shiva statue in one morning and afternoon

A private eight-hour temple tour from Udaipur takes you by air-conditioned car to Shrinathji Temple in Nathdwara (one of the most visited Krishna pilgrimage sites in India), and Eklingji Temple, stopping through Aravalli mountain scenery. Your Hindi-speaking guide leads you through both temples. Entry tickets to Vishwas Swaroopam (the world's tallest Shiva statue at 369 feet) and Maharana Pratap Museum at Haldighati are included, along with transport and a water bottle.

The experience

Eight hours gives you time to move through two major temples without rushing. The tour starts with hotel pickup anywhere in Udaipur (the airport costs an extra Rs 900), and heads out through the Aravalli mountains toward Nathdwara. Shrinathji Temple is the main stop: it enshrines an image of Lord Krishna and draws Hindu pilgrims from across India. Your guide speaks Hindi and can navigate the temple layout and its religious significance. If language is a barrier, gestures work too.

Eklingji Temple, dedicated to Shiva, comes on the way back and is worth the stop for its architecture alone. The operator notes it offers a window into Indian temple design from centuries past. The optional add-ons let you choose your own depth: Vishwas Swaroopam, the 369-foot Shiva statue in Nathdwara, comes with park entry and access to viewing platforms at 280 and 270 feet, plus a glass bridge. Maharana Pratap Museum at Haldighati tells the story of a key moment in Indian history. Both have tickets included if you want them. Drop-off is anywhere in Udaipur, or back to the airport for the same Rs 900 surcharge.

The vehicle is private to your party only, which means no waiting for other groups and no fixed departure times beyond your pickup window. You get a water bottle for the drive. Meals are not included, so plan a stop in Udaipur before you leave or bring snacks for the road.
