Rafting a specific section of a river that concludes within a day is known as day trip.
How is it different from expeditions?
An expedition is spread across multiple days and there are no fixed camps. All the gear and logistics needed for survival (like dome tents, kitchen, sleeping bags, personal belongings) are carried in cargo rafts.
While in a day trip the camps are fixed at one location and it is more like doing a check-in into a resort. You go out to do rafting and return back to the camp for the rest of the day.
Where to stay during day trips?
Normally people who come over to Shivpuri do a specific section of rafting; they choose one of the following modes of accommodation around.
a) River side camps
b) Resorts
c) Hotels
But the most preferred is the river side camps, as it provides a completely natural environment to stay in.
