The Purushwadi Festival is an annual event celebrated in the month of May and June right after the monsoon season. It is celebrated in Maharashtra’s Purushwadi Village, which is a small village in the Ahmednagar district, where millions of fireflies come out during the night and light up the forests, which is an eye soothing view. This year the festival will take place in the third week of May.

The locals as well as tourists can enjoy a range of activities including night walks through the forest and experience the magic themselves. It looks like the place is covered with very tiny Christmas lights. The festival has helped boost the local economy and also in helping generate employment to the locals.

“I did my first solo trip in India with WanderOn. Initially I was sceptical about their Meghalaya-Kaziranga trip as I didn't have any prior experience with them but the team assured me that it's going to be one of the best experiences of my life.

“In Ladakh, find the perfect blend of culture, adventure, and serenity. December last year I decided that my next trip would be Ladakh but didn’t know how to go about it. I knew I wanted to travel in a group, as I had prior experiences of traveling in a group but wanted an organiser I could trust. Ladakh isn’t like other destinations wherein you need some instructions due to the high altitudes.

“After an amazing trip to Tirthan with WanderOn, I decided to go to Manali-Jispa with them and yet again, the experience was worth every penny. The place was very beautiful and the quality of service was top-notch, the itinerary was very good and the quality of transportation and stays were very good. Had an awesome time there and made some good friends as well. Lastly, our trip captains Priyasha and Rachit managed the entire trip very well and were so fun and made our trip an experience worth remembering.
