4 Days Rishikesh Couple Retreat — Yoga, Rafting & River Camp

Your tour manager picks you up from Delhi (5 hrs) or Haridwar (1 hr) and drives you to your riverside camp on the banks of the Ganga. Drop your bags and walk to Triveni Ghat for the evening Ganga Aarti — priests swing fire in great arcs as the river fills with floating diyas. Return to camp for a welcome riverside dinner under the stars.

The main event. A 16km stretch of the Ganga through Grade 3–4 rapids: Roller Coaster, Golf Course, Club House — your rafting guide names each one. Optional cliff jumping at the midpoint. Body surfing the calmer sections between the excitement. Pack a picnic lunch on the sandy banks. Evening back at camp: bonfire, music, and the kind of quiet that only rivers create.

6am sunrise yoga on the riverbank with a qualified instructor — the Ganga flowing beside you as the Himalayas emerge from morning mist. Post-yoga brunch at a riverside café. Explore the abandoned Beatles Ashram (Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's hermitage) where the Fab Four composed the White Album in 1968 — now a surreal mural-covered forest retreat. Cross Lakshman Jhula, browse the bead and crystal shops of Ram Jhula. Sunset guided meditation on the ghats.

Take a final sacred dip in the Ganga at dawn — the water is cold, the sky is pink, and it's one of those moments you'll reference for years. Optional: Rishikesh's famous 83m bungee jump (₹3,500 extra) or the Giant Swing. After breakfast your tour manager drives you back to Delhi or Haridwar station.
