Udaipur is about two hours from Bera, so a day trip is possible. Whether it is a good idea is another question.
What a day trip looks like
You leave Udaipur around 2:00 PM, arrive in Bera by 4:00 PM, join the evening drive, and head back after dark. That means a late drive home on rural roads, which we do not recommend. A morning option means leaving Udaipur at about 3:30 AM to reach first light.
The problems with a single day
- Long hours on the road, often at night.
- Only one drive, so a lower chance of a good sighting.
- No time to enjoy the village, the food or the sunset.
- Safari slots may be limited at short notice.
A better compromise
Stay one night. Arrive in the afternoon, do an evening drive, sleep in Bera and do a dawn drive before returning to Udaipur for lunch. You get two drives, no night driving and a far better experience. See the weekend plan.
