Bharatpur Guide for a day trip || Travel with me!

 

Endowed with scenic beauty, Bharatpur is a perfect place to visit any time of the year.

Here we guide with an itinerary for a 2-Day trip to Bharatpur from Delhi, which you can of course mould according to your own convenience.

 

Day-1

Well, if you are starting from Delhi, you can reach Bharatpur by railways or by your own car or a cab. I personally went there by car and just had only two stoppings in between, I managed to reach  there within 4 hours.

Make sure you start up early in the morning. I left at 6:00 am.

I checked in to the hotel in bharatpur  immediately after reaching there and the best part was that the bird sanctuary was just 3 km away from my hotel.

After having breakfast in the hotel itself I left for the bird sanctuary. There was an option of hiring a guide , but honestly we didn’t. Rather we did hire rikshaws there.  I have even shared pictures on my Instagram handle so don’t forget to check that out.

Well I was back by 2 pm and had my lunch.  Rajasthani buffet was just perfect!

 

Day -2

Next day there’s an option for you to visit Lohang fort. I personally didn’t go there as there was curfew in the city. But I totally suggest you to visit there. There’re a lot of things you will get to know about. Also there are guide available who can brief you well about the place.

Personally after breakfast I checked out from hotel and left for my home  I left at 10 and reached back by 2 pm .

What you can plan is after breakfast and checking out from hotel you can visit the fort and then afterwards leave for you home.

 

That was all I did, although short but a memorable trip I had. A family trip is the best when you are dying with your busy schedules.
