Mountain Adventures Tours -
Trip Organization
The trekking trip begins its onward journey from Delhi. On the day of departure
from Delhi for the trekking trip, the Tour Manager gives extensive briefing
of the trip with important things attached to the tour. It's a informal
introduction to the trip where the expectation from the trip are briefed
out with Audio Visual presentation. Here your Trip Manager answers all the
field questions.
While in the field we normally have bed tea at 6.00 am in the morning,
your field staff brings you hot tea /coffee to your tents. Hot water in
washing bowls are also served along with bed tea for your hygiene morning
cleaning. There is given enough time to pack-up your bags before breakfast.
At around 7.00 am breakfast is served, mostly consisting of fruits, porridge,
muesli or cornflakes, toast, butter / marmalade, eggs as per choice and
tea / coffee etc. before starting the day trek.
The days trek starts at around 8.00 am and we have few breaks in between
for visiting the villages, temples and photo-opportunity stops. At around
1300 hrs. we stop for mostly hot mid day meal or enjoy the pack lunch,
prepared by your staff. The accompanied kitchen staff reaches the campsite
ahead of us and by the time the members come to the camp most of the cooking
is done. On the days when your staff serves you hot lunch it consists
of lots of carbohydrate and mineral fiber in your diet, such as rice,
dal (lintels), bread and sandwich, roti (rolled Indian bread), peanut
butter, cheese, tuna fish, potato salad etc.
You rest for a while under the shade of a tree and later cover up the
day's trek, which remains for few hours. After reaching the campsite the
kitchen staff again serves you with a refreshing lemon tea, biscuits,
cheese or Indian made afternoon snacks. There is plenty of time to appreciate
the local landscape and probably to visit the nearby shrine, village or
even locals' home to see how they live? All these are organized through
your local Trip Manager who have spent considerable long time travelling
in these regions of trekking tour.
Dinner is served before it gets dark and the time to enjoy relaxed camp
fires or listen to local stories or narration's by locals about their
customs and traditions. Dinner consists of lightly cooked nourishing local
vegetables, some Indian bread, rice and nourishing hot soup of your choice,
with dessert along with tea / coffee. In some of the camping nights the
Trip Manager even requests the locals to put up a small traditional dance
performance and time passes appreciating these memorable sights and sounds.
Every night after dinner the Trip Manager also sees that the members
fill-up their water bottles with purified drinking water, which has been
boiled for good 20 minutes and purified with iodine crystals for extra
safety of the member's health. All cooking in field is done after carefully
boiling the water and with through washing of raw vegetables in it etc.
Staff
Our Mountain Adventure Tours in India field staffs are the finest and most dedicated in
India. Most have put more than 7 to 9 years in the field cooking, running
various field trips for us. Our field Trip Managers have more than 12
to 14 years of experience behind them in running various trips all over
India, Nepal and Bhutan and thoroughly well versed with the locale of
the trips they are assigned to. Some of them have even mastered leading
different trips such as trekking, Rafting, Mountaineering, Sailing, Backwater
Barging, Diving, Camel Safaris, Mountain Biking, Cultural trips all over
India etc. and we are sure that your time in the field will be quite interesting
talking to these assets of our company.
Accommodation
During adventure tours camping nights, we use Scottish made two men tents
with wide open front zip and tough ground sheet attached to individual
tents and covered from all sides. There is a roomy dining tent and a separate
kitchen tent for field staff to use during cooking. The pit toilet tent
is pitched slightly away from the main camping area and away from the
water point. The use of comfortable stools and tables during serving meals
are all quite appreciative of standards laid down by us for maximum comfort
to members during the adventure trips.
Trip Leaders
Our Trip Leaders are the soul of Mountain Adventure Tours in India. They are experts-local
to the area-who speak from the heart (in English and the local language!)
They understand the customs, history and culture because they were raised
in them. They act as the guide, interpreter, support team, motivator and
merry maker for the group-quite a feat.
