Frequently Asked Questions

Our group trips are limited for people between 18 to 35 years only. On the date of departure the participant should have completed at least 18 years of age to be eligible to join. We feel that a narrow age-group leads to better experiences for our travelers when they visit a destination and the whole trip experience is more fun since people are on the same wavelength. Plus, it is always great when people make friends and keep in touch later.

Our trips have many solo travellers who join us for a great experience. We know it is a hassle to convince your friends/cousins, etc. to accompany you on your trips. This way, you join as a solo traveller and make new friends along the way. While designing the trips, we keep your safety in mind. Plus, most of our trips have trip buddies who ensure things are hassle free for you!

We keep our group sizes small so that you have your own privacy even on a group tour and the flexibility to move around and get involved with your surroundings. An intimate size of 10-12 people in a group ensures that it won’t crowd your experience.
