Booking guide

Everything you need to plan your stay


Rann Utsav is Gujarat Tourism's annual festival held at the edge of the Great Rann of Kutch, and the tent city experience is where many visitors stay.

For the 2026–27 season, Adhvanta Hospitality also operates The White Salt Tent City by Adhvanta at Dhordo Cross Road on Khavda Road, near the White Rann. The rates and packages here are specifically for this Adhvanta-operated camp, and should not be confused with tariffs set separately for the official Gujarat Tourism Tent City.

The Great Rann of Kutch salt desert

What the Rann Utsav Tent City is


The tent city is a seasonal luxury camp set up every year near Dhordo village in Kutch. Rann Utsav generally runs from November through February, covering the winter festival season and the famous full-moon nights over the white salt desert. Gujarat Tourism organises the festival and sets the season dates; around the official Tent City, private operators run their own camps. The White Salt Tent City by Adhvanta is one such private luxury camp, managed by Adhvanta Hospitality Pvt. Ltd. The location sits roughly 85 km from Bhuj, the nearest major city with a railway station and airport.

Season

Season dates and date tiers


The 2026–27 season runs from November 2026 to February 2027. The date tier determines whether your stay is priced as Economy, Regular or Premium, so verify your exact travel date and the applicable tariff before booking.

Period Dates / timing Notes
Festival season November 2026 to February 2027 The 2026–27 Rann Utsav season window
Economy dates Beginning and end of season Generally lower tariff
Regular dates Remaining season dates Standard tariff
Premium dates Full-moon nights and peak holiday block Highest tariff
  • Rather than publishing approximate full-moon dates as fixed booking dates, we recommend checking the date-wise tariff and availability before booking, because the applicable tier directly affects your package price.

Two ways to book

How to do a Rann Utsav tent city booking


Through the official Gujarat Tourism portal

If you specifically want to stay at the official Gujarat Tourism Tent City, check the official booking system for the season dates, availability, tent category and tariff. The official Tent City has its own rates and booking arrangements, which should not be confused with the Adhvanta rates shown above.

Through Adhvanta Hospitality

We provide tent city booking in the Rann of Kutch through The White Salt Tent City by Adhvanta — no checking multiple portals for availability yourself. Fill in the enquiry form and our reservations team will check your dates, preferred tent category and guest count, and send a written quotation. We handle couple, family and group bookings, and scheduled AC transfers between Bhuj Railway Station and the camp are included per the itinerary.

Getting there

How to reach the Tent City


The tent city is near Dhordo village, Kutch district, Gujarat. There is no railway station or airport at Dhordo itself, so travellers arriving by train or air generally reach Bhuj first and continue by road.

By air

Fly into Bhuj Airport (BHJ), then continue by road to Dhordo — approximately 85 km, normally one and a half to two hours depending on traffic and road conditions.

By train

Bhuj railway station is the nearest major railhead. From there, hire a taxi or use the scheduled AC transfer included with the Adhvanta package — arrival pickup at 10:00 am, departure from the campsite at 9:30 am, or as arranged in advance.

By road

From Ahmedabad, Dhordo is approximately 400 km by road. Self-drive, private vehicles and organised transfers are all common.

Questions

Frequently asked questions


Not covered here? Call reservations or send an enquiry — someone who has actually been there will answer.

How do I make a Rann Utsav tent city booking?
You can book directly on the official Gujarat Tourism website by selecting your preferred tent category, dates and number of guests, paying online. Alternatively, contact an authorised travel agent such as ourselves, who can arrange the booking along with transport if needed.
What is the price of a tent at the tent city?
Prices start at approximately Rs 6,500 per person per night for a Swiss Cottage AC tent on double occupancy with all meals included. Heritage Swiss Cottage tents go up to Rs 22,000 per person per night. Full-moon nights and weekends carry a premium over base rates.
Is food included in the package?
All standard packages include breakfast, lunch, evening snacks and dinner, served at the central dining area inside the tent city. Specific dietary requirements can be communicated at the time of booking or on arrival.
Can I visit Rann Utsav without staying at the tent city?
Yes — you can buy a day visitor pass to attend the festival and access the Rann viewing area. But full-moon nights are best experienced overnight, and day passes do not give access to all cultural events.
What is the best time to book?
Four to six weeks in advance for regular weekday dates. For full-moon nights, weekends and the period around Christmas and New Year, book eight to ten weeks ahead. The festival runs from November to late February, with peak demand between December and January.
