Mr. Akshay - ★★★★★Want to do River Rafting in Rishikesh? I suggest Camp Ganga Vatika without thinking for one second. It's a place where you get all the activities full of enjoyment and the best experience. Ganga river is very beautiful, it flows parallel to Rishikesh-Badrinath road. It is very pleasant to sit at the bank of the river and enjoy the water. Very cold water with a beautiful constant flow is amazing and pleasing. We had 10km river rafting, it was just superb. I suggest river rafting is a must-do, have a real thrill of the Ganga river. I would like to join you again and again at least once a year.
