Are you ready to live your adventure…….to take the plunge?” We were gearing up for the gruelling climb to the summit of a 20,000+ ft peak in the Himalayas and this question kept reverberating in my mind as we commenced our hike at midnight. It was the full moon and night of a lunar eclipse, as we crossed the glacier and started the steep ascent towards the summit ridge, I was panting and my mind was getting blurred ....”can you do it after so many years?” On the ridge the body had given up, it was only the mind and we kept chugging up and ahead, roped up and in unison. On the summit we took the plunge and Reccy was born.
We were all young adventurers in college - doing mountaineering, hiking, rock climbing, skydiving, scuba diving, paragliding, skiing - and then got busy with our professions….. with pharma research, in the Air Force, designing and erecting steel plants, developing software, in investment banking and private equity….and then we came back together to indulge in our passion again. But planning an adventure trip can be arduous, we struggled with these questions everytime we wanted to go out of our comfort zones again.
Hence our mission is to make it easier to search, compare, plan and book the best adventures worldwide…...so that we get inspired to Cross the Line.

• Get up close and intimate with the traditions and heritage of India
The Rajasthan tour enables you to be at the juncture of tradition and heritage of ancient and medieval India. You will step into the folk paradise of India, with several ancient clans still maintaining their traditions and heritage through artwork, handicrafts, music, cuisines, etc.
Visiting Rajasthan with us is like stepping into the pages of a history book. Marveling at the ancient fort structures and every chance at exploring them takes you through the ambiance of pride and heritage of the ‘Maharajas of Rajputana’ lifestyle.
The traditional cuisine adds another flavor to the heritage of Rajasthan that has been carried forward since ages. Royal spices garnish the ethnic recipes, which you can never have enough of.
• Sessions with the elephant
You will get to spend a lot of time with the elephant. Although there will be guides, first contact with an elephant or any other beast is always critical. You need to let the elephant catch your smell, be comfortable with you patting and stroking it, while you look into its eyes and try to talk or communicate. You must let the elephant feel your energy and be at peace with it.
There exists a certain language called ‘the Elephant language’ which the elephants understand and can communicate basic things using it. You need to master the fundamentals to use the elephant language.
However, to gain the trust of an elephant, you can do a certain thing that they love the most. Elephants love the most to eat, and you can engage in the elephant feeding process to gain their trust. You will get a chance to feed them and learn their feeding habits.
However, one of the most astonishing things is using completely natural colors to paint the thick elephant skin. You can do traditional motifs yourself on the face of an elephant, but if you are not too confident about it, we can make the outlines on their faces and you can fill them with the colors of your choice.
• Cultural evenings full of traditional song and dance
After welcoming you with a showering of rose petals, the indigenous people of Rajasthan will do
everything to please their guests. That is why the evenings are the most exciting. Every evening is
brimming with life and energy, and the various tribes and clans of Rajasthan showcase their skills - dancing in traditional and highly colorful outfits, with energetic folk music creating an unforgettable
ambiance.
• Live cooking shows
The Rajasthani folks are well-known for their use of spices and creating lip-smacking delicacies that
have been existing since eons. Every place has its signature cuisine, with Jaipur, Ranthambore, etc.
having their own. The Rajasthani cuisines are not only influenced by the availability of spices in the arid region, but the rugged topography, and the warring mentality of ancient tribes.
The history of Rajasthan has had an impact on its cuisine - with the Marwari Bhojnalaya - a traditional, fully-vegetarian eatery originating here in the Marwar region, especially for the Marwari people. Although the Rajputs are primarily non-vegetarians, the rest of the state consists of various tribes, Brahmins, Marwaris, Jains, etc., which makes it the single largest vegetarian state in India with nearly 74.9% vegetarians.
Tourists visit Rajasthan throughout the year but the best time to visit Rajasthan is during winter months of November to February, when the temperature is not too high. During December and January, there can be a severe variation in temperatures during the day and the night.
