Find HotelsIf you have extra time, consider adding a half‑day visit to the nearby Sadhu Bet Waterfall or a boat ride on the Narmada River for a more relaxed pace. To shorten the trip, you can skip the Valley of Flowers and museum, focusing solely on the statue’s observation deck and the evening light show, which will reduce the itinerary to a single full day.
