It was definitely one of the the great experiences. We thoroughly enjoyed it. Arrangement for food and snacks was really amazing. Especially the evening camping and barbecue was out of ordinary, usually folks don't go to this extent. Here are few items that you may consider to make it even more enthralling:1. Day 1 breakfast: It was limited to 3 idlis which is a bit damper because most people eat a bit more than this and being denied for additional serving makes it little dissatisfying.2. Day 2 Beach Fun: Most folks got 5-10 minutes to have fun in the beach before they were asked to return. Some were yet to venture into the sea. This was quite disappointing. I understand that time constraints was due to starting late from the camp and the guide had personal work because of which he wanted to leave soon. I see two options:(a) If beach activity is rescheduled for day 1, it would be great as there was lot of time on day 1 post lunch.(b) On day 2, ask people to park the kayaks in the shed. Pull a rope across the river using one kayak. Ask people to wear life jacket and swim across the river with assistance of rope. This will be fun as well as it will free up the kayaks when folks are enjoying the beach.3. You may involve activity to jump off the kayak in the middle of the river, especially where the river splits and it is wide. This can add up as additional fun activity without adding to the cost. Otherwise, continuously kayaking sometimes becomes boring.Hope you'll find these suggestions useful. - by Ravi Ghosh for 25KM 2D/1N Backwaters Kayaking and Camping is back .
The event was really amazing. Carry enough dry clothes to the event, it is more likely that you will get wet and if you are planning for a 2-day event you must carry mosquito repellent like Odomos with you along with you. Wear UV-resistant gear (you will get in in shops like Decathlon), at least get full sleeves t-shirt and a quick dry lowers, wearing shorts while kayaking will lead to sunburns. The camping was fabulous, I appreciate Sushant's barbeque skills. There were adequate tents with accessories for the night stay. Food was good, ask for non-veg if you want (while booking itself). I wish go back again. - by Nagaraja for 25KM 2D/1N Backwaters Kayaking and Camping is back .
Thanks Sushant and team for a wonderful experience. Kayaking all day in river Shambhavi was something amazing. Loved the late evening trip back to the camp site, it was really peaceful, I felt that inner peace within me. The sunset and sunrise was spectacular. Home cooked food was yummy. Over all, It's a must try for all those who want to getaway from the city and try something adventurous (fitness level required though). - by Evander for 25KM 2D/1N Backwaters Kayaking and Camping is back .
It was a bit tiring but overall a good experience. Specially the part where we have to walk to a dam through a river and against currents and without a rope.Sushant was a good and helpful instructor and took special care for those who find it difficult.Camping, bonfire and live barbeque was good after a tiring day of kayaking.The quality of food served was amazingly good. I was not hoping food to be tasty.However, the event can be very tiring as it's around 5 hours of Kayaking with a few small breaks. So, embrace for shoulder pain. - by Arjit Agarwal for 25KM 2D/1N Backwaters Kayaking and Camping is back .
