    The meals were super delicious. Our natural historian was knowledgable sharing with us about the experience and stories of the place properly, The hike went excellent and easy as I thought. The Kanheri Caves look stunning and breathtaking, which impossible to built like the old-time ancestor. Breakfast near the water streams was terrific and, the hiking towards the highest point too was easy and, from there you would get to see and experience about the beauty of mother nature on which the natural historian would tell about the history of the place, End of the journey was tiring and satisfied.
