ACCOMMODATION
Choose Your Tent Type
The headline from ₹6,300 per person for 1 Night / 2 Days is the Non-AC Swiss Cottage — the entry-level category. Every price below is the total for one night, per person on twin-sharing unless the card says otherwise, exclusive of GST. All six categories include the same meals, cultural evenings, White Rann visits and Bhuj transfers — what changes is the tent.
Suites
Rajwadi & Darbari — Royal Suites
For honeymoons, milestones and group luxury stays — a private suite rather than a tent room.
Peak dates carry a surcharge
The rates above apply on ordinary season dates. Diwali week, full-moon windows and the general December to January peak add a surcharge per person, and Christmas to New Year (18 December to 2 January) adds more again — for one night:
- Diwali, full moon and general December to January — ₹2,000 per person
- Christmas and New Year, 18 December to 2 January — ₹4,000 per person
Check which of your dates fall in those windows on the Rann Utsav 2026-27 dates calendar, read what makes each one worth planning around on the Rann Utsav special dates guide, or see the full rate sheet with cancellation terms on the Rann Utsav Tent City booking page. Children under six stay free of charge.
FAQ
1N/2D Package FAQs
Is 1 Night / 2 Days enough to experience Rann Utsav?
Yes — the 1 Night / 2 Days package delivers the essential Rann Utsav experience. You will see the White Rann at sunset, attend the evening cultural folk performance, enjoy a bonfire dinner under the stars, and witness the sunrise on the salt flats. The two signature moments of Rann Utsav — sunset and sunrise on the White Rann — are both included. For first-time visitors and weekend travellers, this package is perfectly calibrated.
What is the difference between tent types?
The 1N/2D package is sold in six tent categories, all with the same meals, cultural evenings and transfers — what changes is the tent. Non-AC Swiss cottage at ₹6,300 per person is the entry level behind the "from ₹6,300" headline, with fan and cooler rather than air conditioning, and it suits October–November and February–March when nights are mild. Deluxe AC Swiss cottage at ₹8,300 per person adds air conditioning and a sitting corner, and is the category most guests book. Premium tent at ₹9,300 and Super Premium at ₹10,300 per person add a double bed with luxury linen, more space and a better position in the camp. Above those sit the Rajwadi Suite at ₹35,000 per couple per night and the Darbari Suite at ₹70,000 per suite per night, which sleeps four. All rates are per night, twin-sharing, exclusive of GST.
Can we add Bhuj city sightseeing to the 1N/2D package?
Yes — Bhuj sightseeing can be added on your departure day (Day 2). After the morning Rann experience and breakfast, we can arrange a vehicle for you to visit Bhuj city (Aina Mahal, Prag Mahal, Kutch Museum, and the vibrant old city market) before your onward train or flight. This is available at an additional cost of ₹1,200 per vehicle for up to four persons. Please request at the time of booking so the vehicle is arranged.
Is the 1N/2D package available all season?
Yes — the 1N/2D package is available from the festival opening in October 2026 through the closing in March 2027. However, availability varies significantly by date. Full moon nights, Christmas week, New Year's Eve, and Republic Day weekend are consistently sold out weeks in advance. For these dates, we recommend booking 6–8 weeks ahead. For non-peak weekdays, 2–3 weeks should be sufficient.
CONSIDERING MORE TIME?
Why Upgrade to the 2N/3D Package
The 1N/2D package covers the essential Rann Utsav experience beautifully. But if you have the flexibility, the 2 Night / 3 Day package at ₹12,600 is consistently our most recommended — and most popular — option. Here is why:
- →Two sunsets and two sunrises — the light is different every time, and the second visit to the Rann always yields better photographs
- →All lunches included — the Gujarati thali at the tent city restaurant is excellent, and a full day without meal planning is genuinely relaxing
- →A second cultural evening with different performers — Rann Utsav rotates folk artists throughout the season
- →Enough time to visit the Dhordo craft village and explore the artisan bazaar without rushing
- →A star-gazing session included — the Rann's zero light pollution makes this extraordinary
- →You simply arrive more relaxed and leave more nourished. One night is never quite enough.
