These journeys, which have cultural, spiritual and educational elements, are led by highly qualified leaders and guides and are tailor-made for institutions, groups and individuals.
We feel that the most authentic element of transformative travel is the change within (the eleventh direction), the way the traveler views his or her world after coming into contact with different ways of living and thinking. On these journeys you will touch a culture and civilization that is both ancient and contemporary. We take you on an inner and an outer journey through a fascinating and mysterious India/South Asia.
There will be interactions and talks with people from all walks of life, whether spiritual gurus, academics, museum curators, teachers, mothers, social activists, members of the corporate world, lawyers, local artisans or landless farmers.
You could be taken for country walks, travel through beautiful mustard and marigold fields, visit villages that have changed little in the last 2500 years, taste the different cuisines of India, visit schools and homes in villages and cities, stop at mango groves for picnics, take a boat ride along the Ganges or the backwaters of Kerala, experience the spectacular art forms of India in sculpture, dance, painting and music, visit monuments, temples, local shrines and caves, and even shop in the local markets.
You can absorb the structures and subtleties of the fast-changing urban landscape, with it buzzing markets, diverse cultures and regional flavors, and even witness elephants or camels sauntering down the busy streets.
We go at a slower pace than tourists usually do, which allows us to be mindful, have discussions and create time for ourselves. It would not be an exaggeration to say that all the people who have come so far have found the journeys most worthwhile-even transformative.
We invite you to join us on one of our journeys.
