During courses you can stay at our riverside camps (basic → premium), or choose hotel comfort. We work closely with nearby hotels to give convenient options.
If you prefer hotel comforts while you train, Hotel Divya Ganga (Shivpuri) is the best local option: clean rooms, easy access to our office, and early morning transfer to the river. Guests who stay at the hotel are picked up and dropped back for every session.
Camps range from twin-share Swiss tents with attached common washrooms to premium tents with attached washrooms and pool access. Camps are a good choice for immersive multi-day courses where the river is next to your tent.
