Lunches and dinners are not included, giving you the freedom to eat based on your taste, mood, and budget.

🥢 Food Assistance

Our itineraries are designed to stop near convenient, hygienic, and authentic food spots close to sightseeing areas.
These may not always be viral or Instagram-famous restaurants, but they are practical, tasty, and time-efficient.
During free time, you are encouraged to explore cafés or restaurants of your choice.

💭 Expectation vs Reality (What You’re Paying For)

You are paying for a well-planned, safe, and curated group travel experience—not luxury, not backpacker chaos, but a balanced mix.
Hotels will be clean, comfortable, and centrally located—not ultra-luxury resorts.

The focus is on experiences, smooth logistics, and group coordination, not perfection in every small detail.

Our trips are designed around experiences, not just sightseeing. Every activity included in the itinerary comes with an associated cost, and the package pricing reflects this.

If you choose to opt out of any included experience, you must inform us at least 30 days in advance to be considered for a cost adjustment. Please note that transportation and buses will not be provided for activities you choose to skip.

Our itineraries are not meal-focused. We believe food is best enjoyed flexibly and on the go. While we’re happy to suggest good places to eat, it is not feasible to arrange meals at every location. Vegetarian travelers are advised to carry snacks or food options that suit their preferences.

Please be mindful that cities like these are expensive even for basic living. A significant portion of your trip cost—approximately 70%—goes toward accommodations, activities, and transportation, with the remainder covering mandatory government taxes. Do not expect luxury upgrades or special inclusions beyond what is clearly mentioned in the package.

We strongly encourage travelers to evaluate the package thoroughly before booking. No refunds will be issued based on personal perceptions of value or experience after the trip. The overall experience depends greatly on how much you choose to engage and participate.

Lastly, every traveler is free to enjoy the trip in their own way. If you prefer to disengage, rest early, or skip social activities, that is entirely your personal choice.

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Trip Host & Vibe Expectations

Trip hosts are here to guide, coordinate, and manage the itinerary to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience for everyone. They are not personal assistants, babysitters, or on-call guides during free time.

Group trips work best when travelers are open-minded, respectful, punctual, and positive. Bring your own fun, stay flexible, and the experience becomes truly magical ✨

Role of Trip Hosts

Trip hosts are dedicated to making your journey joyful, well-organised, and memorable, but they are not personal attendants. Please avoid unnecessary demands or repetitive requests. Human bandwidth is limited, but hosts are always approachable for genuine assistance.

First-Time Travelers

We’re happy to support and guide first-time international travelers and help ease any nervousness. However, your belongings, safety, health, and well-being remain your personal responsibility at all times.

Hosts may not be able to give one-on-one attention to every traveller constantly, so active participation and involvement from your side is important—it’s your trip. If you feel shy, taking the first step to engage will help you enjoy the group experience more.

Communication & Attention

Please pay attention when trip hosts are explaining plans, schedules, or instructions. Missing briefings or choosing not to listen cannot later be claimed as “not informed.” Clear instructions are shared because past experiences show that many travellers skip reading itineraries or updates.

This is not a traditional guided tour focused on historical explanations. Our trips are modern, experience-led, and vibe-focused. Hosts may also help create reels, photos, and special moments—only if you’re comfortable with it.

Self-Research & Exploration

Travellers are encouraged to do basic research about places they’re visiting. Information changes frequently, and while hosts can suggest and guide, they may not always have real-time updates on every spot.

Transport & Local Etiquette

Cab drivers and transport staff are not personal butlers. Assistance is limited to reasonable expectations, and respectful behavior is essential. International trips come with different cultural norms—please avoid comparing them to Indian hospitality. Approach the journey as an explorer, stay adaptable, and focus on good vibes 🌍✨
