I. Caving In Meghalaya

Armed with just a beam of light shooting out of your head, the thrill caving has to offer is second to none. Meghalaya has the deepest and the longest caves in the Indian subcontinent, and is among the top 10 caving destinations in the world. The caves, filled with stalagmites and stalactites, are an explorer’s paradise, offering a beautiful, serene experience.

II. Hot Air Ballooning in Rajasthan

What’s better than floating for an hour over the sand dunes, castles and palaces of Rajasthan in colourful, hot air balloons? Well, okay, maybe a few things but this one would be high up the list too! Following world safety norms, it provides a breathtaking view as it helps you float and glide above the cities and deserts of Rajasthan a la Phileas Fogg.

III. Snorkelling With Elephants

Suffice to say scuba diving in itself may not be the most unique activity on this list. But how often do you get the opportunity to dive underwater with an elephant? Well, it is possible in the Andaman and Nicobar island where Rajan, an elephant, goes snorkelling with you! Apart from admiring the subaqueous beauty, one gets to admire the sheer elegance and grace of the gentle giants underwater.
