While planning an expedition to Nainital, there are certain points that once must take care of to ensure that the entire tour is a memorable one.

3. Needless to say, if you are travelling by road, drive super-cautiously. Driving on hilly roads requires high level of attention and precision, particularly while taking turns. In case you are not really confident in driving, we’d recommend you to hire a professional driver. This allows you to kick back, relax and spend your time enjoying the en-route beauty and the privileges of ultra-comforts of a chauffeur-driven travel experience.

4. Being a hilly location, temperature constantly fluctuates so take your warm clothes with you. Wind-cheaters are a good option because it will safeguard you against unexpected down-pours.

5. If you pre-planned a visit to any of the lakes, do wear life jackets. Read the instructions written on the Safety Bill-boards mounted all-round the holidaymaker places. Doing so will familiarize you about the dos and don’ts on a lake side and will eventually help in making your trip much more pleasant.
