 I just finished an incredible tour of Bhutan with my husband, and Travel Empowers truly delivered one of the best and most reasonably priced trips we’ve ever taken. The tour was packed with so many inclusions, and our group was amazing—I’ve made friends for life. Our tour guide was my knight in shining armor, especially when I wasn’t feeling well one day. He went above and beyond to ensure I was okay and even suggested the perfect food to help me recover. A huge thank you for such an unforgettable adventure!

We loved that all our guides were locals with personal connections to the cities we visited. Their insights and stories added so much depth to our journey. It was incredibly convenient that all entrance fees and tickets were included in the package. Not having to wait in queues saved us a lot of valuable time. Unlike previous tours where hidden costs piled up, we appreciated your transparent approach. The upfront pricing made budgeting much easier for us. The itinerary struck a perfect balance between popular tourist cities and quieter, more serene places, allowing us to experience both sides of India.The accommodations were exceptional, especially the heritage hotels which offered a unique charm and character that we preferred over Western-style hotels. A special mention goes to our driver, Mr. Neghi. His friendly demeanor, openness, and exceptional care made our journeys safe and enjoyable. We truly felt at ease with him behind the wheel.We will definitely miss the delicious Indian food! It was a culinary delight at every meal. Thank you for your meticulous planning and flexibility in tailoring the trip to our preferences. Knowing that we could reach out to you at any time with questions or requests added an extra level of comfort throughout our travels.

I have been lucky enough to travel with these guys twice, and honestly would not consider using anyone but Travel Empowers for a trip to India, Nepal, or Bhutan. Their sustainable ethos, giving back to local communities and engaging with local enterprise fits exactly with my personal requirements, enhancing the whole travel experience. The attention to detail is second to none, every trip is bespoke and truely build around you so you can be as busy or as laid back as you wish. Cut the budget with back-packer hotels, or push the boat out in luxury spas, it’s up to you!

Spirit of India and Nepal March ‘24

As an older traveler, I was initially apprehensive about embarking on such an extensive trip. However, from the moment I booked with Travel Empowers, all my worries were put to rest. The entire team, especially our tour leader Nishi, went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of the trip was perfect.

Nishi’s warmth, knowledge, and attentiveness made the journey truly special. She was always there to assist, answer questions, and share fascinating insights about the rich cultures and histories of both India and Nepal. Her passion and enthusiasm were contagious, making every moment of the trip enjoyable and enriching.
The highlights of India, from the awe-inspiring Taj Mahal to the vibrant streets of Jaipur, were beyond my wildest dreams. In Nepal, the serene beauty of the landscapes and the spiritual atmosphere of places like Boudhanath Stupa left a profound impact on me. Each destination was thoughtfully chosen and offered unique experiences that I will cherish forever.
The accommodations were comfortable and welcoming, providing the perfect blend of luxury and local charm. The itinerary was well-paced, allowing for both exploration and relaxation, which was particularly appreciated given my age.
