Frequently asked questions.
October to March is the season — pleasant weather, wintering migratory birds and clear light across the salt. In summer the Rann is punishingly hot and much of the birdlife has moved on.
Sunrise and the golden evening are the best hours on the Rann, so we plan drives around them.
Always private — your own jeep, driver and naturalist, so you can be out on the salt for the best light and wait where the herds and flocks are.
The Indian wild ass is the signature species, alongside flamingos, demoiselle cranes, pelicans and a long list of raptors and owls that hunt the open marsh. Nilgai, jackal, desert fox and jungle cat are here too. Sightings depend on the day and water levels.
Your Little Rann,planned properly.
No commitment — just a conversation about dates, group, and the kind of trip you want.
