Q: What is the Instructor-to-Student ratio on your camps?

A: We maintain a strict 1:10 Instructor-to-Student ratio, which is one of the highest safety benchmarks in the industry. This ensures that every child receives personal attention, whether they are learning to pitch a tent or identifying a bird.

Q: Which summer camps near Pune do you offer?

A: We run Discover Maharashtra camps near Pune for ages 12–16, designed to maximise adventure while minimising long travel. These focus on outdoor confidence-building in a safe, supervised setting.

Q: Are there female instructors available for girl campers?

A: Yes. We are proud to have a consistently high ratio of girl campers across all our programmes. Recognising this, we make it a priority to assign at least one female instructor to every camp. This ensures that our female participants always have a dedicated point of contact, in addition to our strict policy of separate accommodation and supervision.

Q: How is Foliage Outdoors different from other camp organisers?
