UTCI is a prominent leader in responsible safari tourism in India. With partnership with several exclusive jungle lodges in Central India and a variety of bespoke wilderness experiences, we showcase the finest wildlife and hospitality of the Indian subcontinent. From 2009 to 2024, we have been recognized for excellence in wildlife safaris, sustainability initiatives, expert naturalists, and our pioneering mobile safari initiative.

The name “UTCI,” an acronym for Unique Tours of Central India, embodies the spirit of exploration and adventure in the region’s untamed jungles.

We are dedicated to providing an unparalleled guest experience while promoting jungle conservation and supporting local communities. 

Today, UTCI is driven by a dedicated team of wildlife enthusiasts and hospitality experts, comprising over 300 individuals, including naturalists, nature guides, boatmen, trackers, and a marketing team based in Delhi. Our core mission extends beyond running wildlife lodges; we are deeply involved in conservation and community development efforts. We believe that the future of forests lies in the hands of local communities, who can play a vital role in their protection or destruction. To conserve our forests, we strive to improve the livelihoods of local people, ensuring they benefit from eco-tourism.

We are motivated by the hope of reaching people in the most remote parts of our country, as they are at the forefront of wildlife conservation. Though our impact may seem like a drop in the ocean, we are committed to making a significant contribution to wildlife conservation and the rural economy through our lodges.
