Highlights
  • Swaminarayan Akshardham - Start your journey with the hotel pick-up in a private cab at your desired time. Drive to the Akshardham temple where architects have achieved the zenith of carving to induce life in every piece of stone. Take a post-visit to the Akshardham Temple to see the Exhibition Section comprised of 3 parts. The first is Sahajanand Darshan: Hall of Values - Experience timeless messages of Hindu culture presented in this exhibition. It contains a series of exhibits, each one giving a fresh experience, a new message and a novel presentation. These exhibits portray values like non-violence, perseverance, prayers, morality, and family harmony using different multimedia technologies like audio-animatronic figures, immersive projections and 3-D dioramas.

The second is Neelkanth Darshan: Large Format Film - At Akshardham’s giant screen theater, visitors become engrossed in Neelkanth Yatra. Here, on a screen 85 feet wide and 65 feet tall, the audience follows a young Neelkanth Varni on an epic trek across the Indian subcontinent. From the icy peaks in the northern Himalayas to the warm beaches of southern India, follow Neelkanth as he traverses 12,000 kilometers across the length and breadth of India. Be reminded of the value of sacrifice and service, the wisdom of the eternal soul, and the power of faith.

Lastly, the Sanskruti Darshan: Cultural Boat Ride - Board a boat and sail through thousands of years of ancient Indian history. Experience the lifestyle of the Vedic era.

A must see Tour if you get the chance - There’s no “Tech” allowed, such as phones, smart watches or even air pods, for example, so it’s something to bear in mind before entry. (My guide and driver took care of these, so had absolutely no issues or waiting) My guide Neha was amazing, really brings you at ease and is really knowledgeable about the temple, and Delhi as a whole. She made the experience so comfortable (Thank you) not forgetting our driver who was just as courteous and friendly. I was in safe hands, with knowledge and professional friendly people…. What more would I want. Made my experience all the worth while.

Excellent late day tour - Akshardham is a beautiful new temple commemorating the life of Bagwhan Swaminarayan. The buildings and campus are beautiful. I particularly liked the boat ride with dioramas summarizing important individuals in Indian history and civilization. It was fun to see all of the Indian families enjoying time together. The light show was nice but not a must in my view. My guide, Deepak, was kind and attentive and as a single woman I felt very safe.

Great Tour of Akshardham Temple in Delhi - If you plan to check out Akshardham Temple then this tour is great. Our guide Jatin Solanki did an amazing job of explaining the exhibitions at the temple and we were able to look at the all attractions including the amazing lights and water show in the end. Pick up and drop off was smooth as well. Very well conducted tour!

Isha, my guide at Akshardham Temple was amazing! She made my visit a breeze with her knowledge & crowd-management skills - I learned so much from her informative commentary about the temple complex. Despite the busy environment, Isha effortlessly guided me through the crowds and lines, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable experience. She was patient and kind, answering all my questions with a smile. The next day, I realized I left my sunglasses in the driver's vehicle, and Isha went out of her way to help me retrieve them. I can't recommend Isha highly enough as a guide at Akshardham. Her expertise, warmth, and dedication to providing an exceptional visit made all the difference.
