The numbers so far
We've been at this for a while. Here's where we stand.
Upcoming Trips
These are running soon. Spots fill up quick on the popular ones — Manali and Goa usually sell out first.
What you get with us
We've done over 200 trips. Here's what we've figured out matters most.
We check every stay
Our team personally vets hotels and homestays before adding them. If we wouldn't sleep there, you won't either.
Pick your dates
Most trips run on multiple dates. Can't make one? Reschedule to the next batch — no extra charge.
10-25 people per trip
Big enough to have a good time, small enough that you actually get to know people. Not a 50-person tourist bus.
Off the beaten path
We skip the overcrowded tourist spots. Think hidden waterfalls in Meghalaya, not the same old Mall Road walk.
Actually affordable
A 4-day Manali trip for ₹4,999 including stays, transport, and meals. That's not a typo.
No surprise costs
The price on the page is the price you pay. We list everything that's included and what's not. Simple.
Got questions?
Here's what people usually ask before their first trip with us.
Pick a trip, fill in your details, pay — that's it. Takes about 3 minutes. You can pay the full amount or just lock your seat with a deposit and pay the rest later. You'll get a confirmation email right after.
A 4-day Manali trip runs about ₹4,999 — that covers your stay, transport, and meals. Goa starts around ₹3,499. We buy in bulk, skip the agents, and pass the savings to you. The price on the trip page is the final price. No "convenience fees" or whatever.
Every trip page lists exactly what you get — usually it's accommodation, transport between cities, sightseeing, and some meals. What's NOT included: your travel to the pickup point, personal shopping, alcohol, and any optional activities. It's all listed clearly before you book.
Cancel 7+ days before the trip and you can reschedule for free or get a refund minus a small processing fee. Cancel within 7 days — it depends on the trip, but we try to be fair about it. Seat lock deposits are non-refundable though. Check the specific trip page for exact terms.
Can't pay the full amount right now? No problem. Pay 20-30% to lock your seat, then pay the rest before the trip. Your spot is guaranteed once you lock it. If you don't pay the balance in time, the seat gets released and the deposit isn't refunded.
It happens rarely — usually weather or safety reasons. If we cancel, you get a full refund. No questions, no processing fees. Or you can move your booking to another trip if you prefer. We'll let you know as early as we can.
Honestly, about half our travellers come solo. That's kind of the point — you join a group of 10-25 people, and by day two you've got a whole new friend circle. We've seen people meet their best friends and even partners on our trips. It's not weird to come alone. It's normal here.
We've done 200+ trips without a serious incident. Every stay is personally checked by our team. We have local contacts at every destination. Trip leaders carry first-aid kits and know the nearest hospitals. That said, adventure travel has inherent risks — we don't sugarcoat that. We just make sure the controllable stuff is handled.

Why Ghumakkars?
We started Ghumakkars because we were tired of two things: overpriced tour packages that nickel-and-dime you, and the headache of planning a group trip where everyone has opinions but nobody wants to do the work.
So we handle everything. The stays, the transport, the itinerary, the local contacts. You pick a trip, pay, and show up. That's it. We've been doing this for a while now and honestly, the part we didn't expect was how many people come back for a second and third trip.
