As we had a long Holi vacation, my friends and I decided to go for a short adventurous vacation. I came across TravelTriangle weekend gateway advertisement where we checked tour packages for Rishikesh. We submitted our query on the TravelTriangle website and soon we received an email from the travel expert. The itinerary shared by the travel expert matched our expectation and we booked our Rishikesh travel packages via TravelTriangle which included transportation, meals, stay and adventurous activities.

Our Rishikesh holidays commenced the moment we boarded the TravelTriangle bus from Akshardham Metro Station, New Delhi. The tour guide introduced himself to the travellers once the bus started for our destination. Soon the travellers started chatting with each other which created quite a friendly environment.

Next morning, we reached Rishikesh where we checked-in at the scenic luxury camp. We had breakfast there and got ready for our adventure activities. We took a short walk through the jungle and reached the river crossing venue. We were supposed to cross two hills, upside down over the proverbial river. After crossing the river, we were taken for another adventure activity where we crossed the tricky Burma bridge. There are a plethora of thrilling activities to indulge, so don’t wait and plan well in advance your trip, so as to reduce Rishikesh trip cost.

We exhilarated our adventurous experience there and headed back to the campsite for lunch. We were surprised with the food that appeased our taste buds in the foothills of the Himalayas!

In the evening, we assembled around the pool at our campsite and celebrated Holi. We had an amazing celebration and enjoyed the festival as one big family. After Holi celebrations, we got ready for bonfire dinner.

We checked out from our campsite next morning and headed for the venturesome River rafting. It was a 27-km long river rafting course and we enjoyed it wholly. Though, I got a little nervous in the beginning but soon I started enjoying bumping, sliding and splashing through the water of Ganges. After rafting, we started back for Delhi.

It was an adventurous expedition that lured me to revisit the place for more dauntless experiences!
