Always heard about adventure, but I was never into it before I got introduced to WOO Adventures. But, now I am completely believing on the fact that everything’s destined for a reason and presently, Overlanding expeditions are gaining my attention like anything!

Thinking about the reason why I opted WOO for RARA expedition and what exactly is this group into? I have an answer…

Personally, I am not a social bug and thus being present on the varied social media platforms was in my everyday schedule but for the least number of minutes. However, one fine day, I was indulged in scrolling my Instagram handle and there, I had a look at the advertisement showcasing that WOO Adventures is inviting some like minded travelers to participate in their RARA Expedition. On seeing it, the sole thought that struck my mind was ‘That’s impressive’! Waiting no more, I hit the follow button and on witnessing such a huge following I was even more excited to be a part of this trip.

We met on Instagram, you can say! I filled up the booking form and the amazing thing is that its travel experts, replied in less than an hour. Well, these are truly a savior since I am already an impatient human. The highly cooperative behavior and commendable communication skills of Mr. Girish Vats accompanied with a huge knowledge about such expeditions increased my trust on them in no time.

“We have an eminent group of travel experts who will always be there to assist you at every step during the journey”, said Mr. Girish and hearing such a promising statement gave me a sigh of relief. Well, not only words matter until you get to experience the same. But, risks are meant to be taken. I took it and these risks ultimately transformed into enjoyment when I participated in this expedition.

It is much more than merely a short definition, but I think it would be perfect to explain you about it. But, in order to get more information. You are free to check out their website as well.

WOO Adventures, on expanding is considered to be World of Overland Adventures that works with an intention of providing the most perfect and best suited Overlanding, Trekking and Wildlife expeditions to varied travellers in India and beyond.

Here are some of the most obvious reasons explaining why I opted to travel with them:

• WOO team has abundant knowledge about this trek. The way they were handling everything was amazing!
• They are quite experienced and have already successfully completed good number of Overlanding, trekking as well as wildlife expeditions before.

• They love to be a helping hand! Each and every trip they are undertaking is done with an intention of society upliftment. ‘Responsible Tourism’ is what they always believe in.

Some travel tips from my side…. Just in case you are intending to visit this unexplored site:

Without any doubt, an expedition to RARA Lake is ‘one of a kind experience’ for every traveller. Talking about my personal experiences, I am ready with some travel tips and ‘must know information’ that you should keep in mind before heading towards RARA Lake, Nepal.

• Climatic conditions at RARA Lake are sometimes cool and sometimes hot. Afternoons are moderate but early mornings and midnights are cool. Thus, I would advise you to carry layers of clothes along with you!
• Music is what keeps us calm. Thus it is better to carry your own playlist in your cellphone or pendrive since you are going to listen the Nepali songs in the transportation you will be travelling there!
• You can expect a luxurious five star property till Nepalgunj! But after that, you should get ready for some night stays in the dormitory styled guesthouses.
• Get used to eating rice during your expedition and this is because chapattis are not easily available there. You can also carry ‘Chow-chow’ (noodles) and some dry fruits with you to the RARA Lake. These are available at every local shop before entering into the premises of this lake.
• You are going to drive on a good number of bumpy roads and thus, you should be all set to experience the same. I enjoyed each and every bit because I don’t think a place could be more adventurous than this!
• Do carry each and every important object with you while planning your journey. The same would be provided by WOO Adventures so that you don’t fall short of anything there.
• Rains in and around RARA Lake are quite unpredictable, thus you must carry an umbrella or a raincoat along with you before heading towards the RARA Lake.

So, this is an explanation about my RARA expedition with WOO Adventures. Seeing this wonder with my own perspective and feeling each and every element present there has cherished memories for the lifetime!
