Things to do in Dehradun, Uttarakhand: The Best Sightseeing Tours

October 20, 2021 Esmeralda Fenner

Dehradun (/ˌdɛrəˈduːn/) or Dehra Dun (Garhwali: देरादूण) is the interim capital city of Uttarakhand, a state in the northern part of India. Located in the Garhwal region, it lies 236 kilometres (147 mi) north of India's capital New Delhi and 168 kilometres (104 mi) from Chandigarh. It is one of the "Counter Magnets" of the National Capital Region (NCR) being developed as an alternative centre of growth to help ease the migration and population explosion in the Delhi metropolitan area and to establish a smart city at Dehradun. During the days of British Raj, the official name of the town was Dehra.

A life time experience with the perfect company. From planning to execution everything was done nicely. Being the first batch of 2021 the trek was about to be postponed or cancelled by the government, but our tour leaders did everything they could and in the end made the trip happen. The stay before the trek was very beautiful, all the team was very caring and friendly. The food throughout the trip was really delicious. Who can expect chole bhature in the middle of a trek? All these small things made us very happy, afterall "insaan k dil ka raasta uske pet se hota hai". The price they quote is quite high from other companies in the market but the services are worth it. Would love to go on regular trips with Outdoor Monks.

Kedarkantha trek was my second trek with Outdoor Monks, and I can say no doubt that they are best team to coordinate your treks, trips and so on Outdoor Monks was sufficiently thoughtful to set up a different schedule for us since we had told them that we wanted to stay in Rishikesh for two days before the trek. In only two days they arranged so that we did rafting, bungee jumping and furthermore watched Ganga aarits. The trek was amazing. Such an amazing team, Bharath Bhai and Deeraj Bhai came with us to the trek, they were such astonishing individuals, ensured we completed the trek to the summit and also let us dance in the summit.... heehhheeee...They were soooo amazing. My first journey with Outdoor Monks was three years ago and it was Chaadar trek. They organize the treks so well. In both the treks the facilities they provided was top notch. Everything was so neatly done. Anyday I would close my eyes and choose to trek with OUTDOOR MONKS.
