Named after Sultan Ahmed Shah, who founded the city in 1411, it is the largest city in the state of Gujarat in western India.

My clients are currently enjoying a tailor-made sentimental trip Iโve planned for them, with visits to Sabarmati Ashram, which houses Gandhi's living quarters and a range of historic artefacts, to the fascinating Calico Museum of Textiles, which showcases an impressive range of antique and modern fabrics and is considered the best textile museum in the world.
Ahmedabad has a thriving textile industry, and is the second-largest producer of cotton in India.

Theyโll stay in an elegantly-restored heritage boutique property, that has charming courtyards and verandas where they can enjoy delicious Thalis ๐
They will also step back in time visiting the Adalaj Stepwell, an intricate and stunning five-storey deep structure built in 1499 in the quiet village of Adalaj.
Theyโll go on to Rajkot where they will experience the culture and ethnic richness of Saurashtra and Kathiawari culture.

The next part of their trip is truly special for them, with memories of childhood in Porbandar, a charming city known for its beaches, bird sanctuaries and the Temple of Fame - also known as Kirti Mandir, a memorial of Mahatma Gandhi.
