Utsav Camp

Sariska, India

Founded by naturalist Luv Shekhawat, Utsav Camp Sariska is a great choice for guests wishing to unplug and experience the nature of Sariska Tiger Reserve.

Its luscious jungle, impressive wildlife, and rugged boulder-strewn scenery invite safari-style adventures. Back at the hotel, wake to birds chirping from elegant forest bungalows or stone cabins, where gentle earthen tones reflect the wild surroundings.

Tuck into breakfast al fresco before exploring the reserve on foot, horseback or by jeep. Wind up by the blue-tiled pool to soothe aching limbs. It’s hard to leave here feeling anything but relaxed.

What we love

    • Surrounded by unspoiled wilderness and just 15 minutes from Sariska Tiger Reserve
    • Spend your days tracking spotted deer, antelopes, peacocks, partridges, monkeys, leopards, and even tigers
    • An amazing array of excursions on offer–if you can, make time for sundowners amongst the boulders
    • Gorgeous nature-inspired bungalows and cabins
    • The naturalist owner is dedicated to responsible tourism
    • Make time to stargaze from your terrace–the skies are dark here

Limited mobile connection and no WiFi in the cabins so prepare to unplug

There are only a handful of daybeds by the pool so it can sometimes get busy

Families are welcome at Utsav Camp and the stone cabins are ideal for families, accommodating up to 4 guests. Some of the activities are better suited to adults. Kids will love the horseriding and safaris but restless youngsters may not find enough to keep themselves entertained. We feel it’s better for children who are interested in being outdoors.
Utsav Camp supports the Sampat Wildlife Foundation, engaging in a range of research, education, and hands-on conservation to preserve the surrounding reserve
Utsav Camp is located in the village of Murlipura in Sariska Tiger Reserve, a 15-minute drive from Tehla.

What our travellers say

We went to Sri Lanka as a three-generation family of three. The superb trip was organised by Samanthie and the team and it's difficult to see how it could have been bettered.
Roy Wood (February 2026)
Red Dot organised the most wonderful 3-week holiday for us. Samanthie built a trip around the amazing sights we had requested visiting, together with her own suggestions and a wide mix of hotels, which gave us the flavours of both traditional Sri Lanka and the sleek, stylish contemporary version of the country. Our Driver made the whole experience incredibly special for us.
Alie C (February 2026)
I can’t thank Cherylle and the Red Dot team enough for their meticulous planning of our family holiday to India travelling through Rajasthan over Christmas. As a family of all adults, every suggestion from daily activities to hotel choices was simply perfect. We travelled through Delhi, Ranthambore (an unforgettable tiger safari!), Jaipur and Agra and I truly feel we experienced the very best of each destination while moving at a relaxed, well thought out pace
Daisy Stanton (February 2026)
My partner arranged a holiday trip at fairly short notice to Sri Lanka with Red Dot on a recommendation, Samanthie was so patient & helpful with her suggested itinerary which we followed with some minor amendments. On arrival at Colombo we met Manjula our chauffeur/guide who was absolutely brilliant!
Andrew S (February 2026)
Dulmini and the Red Dot Team arranged a fantastic trip for us around Assam and North East India. Faultless service. I cannot recommend them more highly.
Martin Thomas (February 2026)
Wonderful company. Our holiday in Sri Lanka was perfect. Local knowledge made all the difference
Sandra Nicholson  (February 2026)
We looked up, and communicated with umpteen tour operators. Though Red Dot seemed to have offices in Sri Lanka and the UK, they seemed to have the best reviews. We were fortunate enough to correspond with Cherylle, who not only assured us of the safety of our friend, but created a personalised, and flexible, itinerary which we could not have done ourselves.
Jayant Banerji (February 2026)
A 14-day tour with Red Dot Tours was the perfect antidote to the bleak UK winter. After a glowing recommendation from a friend, we contacted Red Dot Tours and were not disappointed. Our consultant, Lahiru, curated a seamless itinerary. Throughout the planning phase, Lahiru was incredibly responsive; the final itinerary—delivered via a user-friendly 'Guest Portal'—was impressively detailed, covering every hotel stay and excursion.
