Friends,From a trekking outfit to a full-fledged adventure travel company, it has truly been a whirlwind journey of twenty-five years.What started with a desire to make a livelihood from a passion for outdoors and trekking, has come a long way. The beginning, as all beginnings are, was small and focused. We started with operating various treks in the Himalayas. Our clients made us spread our wings and their desire to undertake more strenuous treks made us explore new regions and new adventures. They knew that we focused on their comfort and requirements and above all, their safety. We have taken giant strides over the last few years, in terms of both the services and in the variety of trips that we offer.As we celebrate this major milestone, we proudly offer to you a specially curated collection of twenty-five experiences across the globe. From trekking through the dense Ugandan jungles to spot the endangered mountain gorilla, discovering the legacy of the Silk Route in Uzbekistan, an expedition cruise into the larger-than-life landscapes and frigid waters of Antarctica, an epic journey aboard the world’s longest railway line – the Trans-Siberian Railway; to a cycling trip through the Baltic countries, there is a lot more to be enjoyed and explored.If you have a trip on your bucket-list, we have it in our catalogue! Read, discover, book, and travel with us.And yes, thank you for all the love and support over the years. To complete twenty-five years in the realm of adventure travel has been both challenging and fulfilling. We hope that we can continue to walk the talk and deliver all that we promise!
