A corner of India that is forever France. It's time to walk barefoot on the beach again. It's time for a leisurely weekend at Pondy!
Step into Pondicherry and you'll wonder if you're in India or France. The French colonized the place a long time ago but some of that allure still hovers in this union territory located 160 kilometres south of Chennai, Tamil Nadu. The architecture is French, the road signs are in French (along with English and Tamil), a lot of people speak fluent French and most restaurants serve steak and wine, a lot alike the French!
During the meetup, Muddie Trails is not responsible in case of any injuries or animal attacks or reptile bites.
Expect the unexpected in case of wild forests like the sudden closing of trek path by govt./ forest department(because of wild animal sighting/landslide/some crime), in which case they may have to cancel the trek (This is very rare - has never happened till now). In this case, the organizer will plan for alternate trek/trip. If this is not possible, then Muddie Trails will refund the remaining amount after removing the travel cost.
50% refund within 3 days and before 24 hours from meetup start time.
No refund within 24 hours from meetup start time
No refund during/after the meetup - 5% online gateway charges will be deducted in any kind of refund done online
Avoid discussing sensitive matters like sex, politics and religion/race.
Using foul or abusive language or arguing with fellow travellers/ organizer will not be acceptable and will stand a chance of being deserted by the travel group.
