Just came back from my trip to Meghalaya with WS yesterday and I must say it was one of the best travel experiences that I've had. Doesn't matter if you're solo and joining a group of strangers or travelling with your own group of friends with WS, the team will make sure you have an amazing experience. Kudos to our trip lead, Saurabh for being so calm, friendly and planning everything so well. Met some amazing people on this journey who are now good friends. We didn't realise how quickly the days passed on this trip.. but i guess that's what happens when you are truly enjoying it. Look forward to many such adventures with WS!

My first experience with Wondering soul. And we really had great experience. Our host Sidhart Tiwari is the best treak leader. Very kind, suppportive, down to earth, helpful, joyful in nature. He is the best example of how the trek leader should be. All the best Sid for your future journey. We would love to travel again. See you soon. Take care.
