Jungle Adventure Group — Hotel in Uttarakhand

If you happen to be near Rishikesh, it is one activity you can't miss. Make sure that river rafting is on as it is a seasonal thing which is closed in rainy season. If you are adventurous do the 16 km (Shivpuri) strerch, thiugh it is not exactly 26km, its much much less.Onlune or offline booking is useless as you will get your chance only once a raft is free so it's better to reach booking area at Tapovan directly and negotiate, I am sure there are other nearby booking hubs also. We parked our car on a vacant plot nearby on payment of Rs. 100. Parking us a big problem in Rishikesh, better to park car in first available spot and travel by auto rickshaw. Changing of clothes, specially fir femalesis another big headache in the area. Best would be to just wear your swimming trunks and life jacket over it. Avoid wearing t shirts, cotton shorts etc as all will get wet. Similarly wear water proof footwear ( Crocs). The whole activity will take around 2-3 hours(without wait time). Best is to do early morning. On board video recording facility is available by a professional for Rs. 1000. You can carry your wallet, mobile etc as they will provide u with a leather pouch kind of water proof bag to stuff your belongings. Do carry some cash as you might like to have Maggi or tea at Maggi Point inbetween your rafting. You will even get a chance to get into the river in quiet water, which was a wonderful feeling un the middle of the river. They say kids below 14 not allowed, but they allow kids as young as 11 years if the kid is well built...

Following the briefing, the organisers will hand you equipment like rafts, paddles, helmets and life jackets.I personally recommend you to visit...
