India Countryside village visits Trips

Our trip to India and Nepal was breathtaking, and the way National Geographic and G Adventures handled the trip made it easy for us to visit a number of areas we may not have otherwise tried to visit. I also was fascinated by the various organizations that G Adventures was supporting through its Planeterra Foundation, and was glad to be able to visit this area of the world in a responsible fashion.

Fab time, in both India and Nepal. Learnt a lot due to the experience and knowledge of both guides, which greatly contributed to the amazing experience we had. All our needs were met. A big thank you to Ja and Suman.

The tour exceeded my expectations, having just 7 was a pleasant surprise, and as a single I felt very comfortable. I loved seeing and experiencing how National Geographic and G Adventures support the local communities we visited, from the street children in Delhi to the village women learning block printing.

I will never forget my experience on this tour. I’ve witnessed so many incredible and life changing experiences, from seeing the Taj Mahal to watching the sun set on golden beaches Goa, from cycling through the early morning chaos of Jaipur to hiking up through the peaceful forest on Ella Rock to reach breathtaking views, from stargazing in the desert to picking tea in the mountains, from monkeys to elephants, from samosas to dosas to hoppers, from masala chai to fresh green tea, this tour has been a kaleidoscope of sights, sounds and tastes, and I’ve made so many incredible friends along the way, who I’m sure will be friends for life.

I would simply say that I had the BEST time. The people I travelled with, the way the tour was organised, the destinations and most importantly the CEO made my trip to India completely unforgettable. India is an explosion of sights, tastes, smells and sounds and I found it completely invigorating. The way the tour was planned made me feel like I really got the most out of my two weeks. I feel so privileged to have been welcomed with open arms by everyone I met in India, and I can't wait to go back.

My experience was fantastic. G Adventures seems to draw together a great group of people, CEOs included! The 18 to 30s something trip was great - it was immersive and fun. I loved the countries I visited, in part due to the itinerary and activities picked by G adventures.
