Amazing Trek and proper Instructions given by the tour leaders Vijay and yaksha. Would definitely love to go on more treks with y'all..

Shilpa Nair
Trekking with wandering souls was a safe and good experience. The team leads were genuinely caring and made sure of everyone's safety despite having a large group.The trek was well designed and it also had an introduction session which served as an icebreaker and made the batch more friendly towards eachother. The crowd was decent and blending, you can meet and make new friends. It was my first time trekking with a group and I would join them soon 💪🏽👍🏽

Abhijit Patil
Vijay and yaksha were our trek leader. Both were very supportive. Helped us throughout the trek. Food arranged in local restaurants was really nice. We will definitely want to trek with you guys again ❤️

Kanj Saurav
I had the opportunity to travel with wandering souls to during the monsoon. Everyone was taken care of in the group with breakfast and lunch provided at right time. I have been travelling for the last 8 years but it was the first time travelling with a trek organiser. Wandering souls washed away the bias that I had against tour organisers. Everyone was given opportunity to take their own time. They also had team building exercises which were really fun and helped set the mood for a group activity. Planning the next trip with them soon.

Sulakshana Kuttikad
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.
