Route: Junagadh, Jetpur, Gondal, Rajkot.
Junagadh to Rajkot is a two-hour hop — 100 km on NH-27 through Jetpur and Gondal, and one of the easiest drives in Saurashtra.
It is also the most mixed bag of bookings we take: pilgrims coming down off Girnar with nothing left in their legs, families aiming for a train, and a steady run of people going to Rajkot for a hospital appointment.
What to see on the Junagadh to Rajkot route
- 01
Down from Girnar
The ropeway has turned the summit into a morning rather than a day, and the car can be waiting at the base station when you come off it.
- 02
Jetpur
Half an hour in: the printing town, cotton drying by the roadside in colours you can pick out from the highway.
- 03
Gondal
The Naulakha Palace, the royal garages and the best tea on this road, thirty minutes short of Rajkot.
- 04
A straight two hours
Four-lane the whole way with nothing between the towns to hold you up, so the timing on this one holds better than most.
- 05
What is at the far end
Rajkot Junction, the hospitals and Hirasar airport are all reachable on the same booking — the airport is 35 km past the city.
Good to know
- Coming off Girnar, book the car to the base of the ropeway rather than your hotel. Nobody wants that walk twice.
- Two hours each way makes this a comfortable day return, so say if you would rather the car waited than book it twice.
- For a hospital appointment, an early start genuinely pays — the road is clear before eight.
- Gir is about an hour and a half the other way from Junagadh, so a safari and the drive back can be one booking.

Regularly. Give us a rough time for coming down and the driver waits at the base station; there is no charge for reasonable waiting.
