I went for a 5 day Snowboard Beginners Course with a couple of my friends and everything was so well organised. Really thankful to the entire AdventurePlay team for making this experience so memorable and I can’t wait to get back on intermediate level next snow season.
Prateek Agarwal
The entire journey from discovery of which adventure sport to take up, costing, inclusions, etc to the actual experience on the ground during the course, it was all very smooth and apt. Will definitely recommend their services to anyone who wants to feel closer to the nature and their natural self.
