    Might seem expensive or dangerous on the first go but it is neither. It is a really fun and thrilling experience that is safe and something extraordinary. Crossing the mighty Ganges on ropes is a great experience in itself. I hope more such activities come up in future that help us enjoy nature without disturbing it.

    Very okayish. They charged ₹1200. There were two zip lines hardly a minute to complete the whole thing. The gears and the gloves they gave us was also pretty torn. Can make it better and reduce the cost. ₹1200 is expensive
