What is the best time to visit Rann Utsav ?

The optimal time to visit the Rann of Kutch is during the vibrant Rann Utsav Festival, running from November 01, 2023 to February 2024. During these months, the temperature ranges from 22 to 10 degrees Celsius, ensuring comfortable sightseeing. Bhuj city hosts the nearest railway station and airport, with a distance of approximately 86.6 kilometers to the white desert. This journey takes about 1 hour and 23 minutes by road. It's noteworthy that from March to October, the entire Rann of Kutch is submerged in salty water, rendering the white salt flats invisible. Hence, visiting during this period is not recommended as there won't be much to see beyond the sea.

Is Rann Utsav at Rann of Kutch Tour safe for solo participants?

Absolutely, it's both safe and comfortable. In fact, around 40% of our participants usually join solo and seamlessly integrate with our leaders and the rest of the group.

Can we make partial payment or pay in installment for Rann Utsav at Rann of Kutch?

If you book 60 days in advance, you have the option for a partial payment. However, the balance payment must be settled at least 10 days before the event date and time.
