My Story – Why I Do This
Since February 2022, I’ve been traveling solo across India and countries like Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam. But India is where my heart belongs — with its incredible diversity, spirituality, culture, and food.
Over time, I met many international travelers, especially women, who told me they felt unsafe exploring India alone. When we traveled together, they felt more relaxed, free to enjoy the journey without constant worry.
Their words stayed with me. India has so much beauty and kindness to offer, and I want the world to see it without fear holding them back. This is why I created these tours — so travelers can experience the real India, safely and comfortably.
My Promise to You
I want to be completely honest with you — this is my first time officially organizing tours like this.
But it’s not my first time traveling, guiding international friends, or making people feel safe in India.
Since 2022, I’ve traveled across India and several Southeast Asian countries, often with international travelers who joined me along the way. Many told me they enjoyed India far more when traveling with me because they could relax, feel safe, and truly connect with the culture.
So while this may be my first official tour, it comes from years of real travel experience, a deep love for India, and a personal commitment to making your journey safe, comfortable, and unforgettable.
