What we're about
"Traveling leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller." Ibn Battuta
As we journey through life, we neither spend much time at the bottom nor even at the summit, we spend most of it venturing on the "Ridge"
Our Philosophy
We believe that by exerting our time and effort in #developingcommunities*,* by supporting their local guides, understanding their culture, and supporting their locally run businesses; we are indirectly #sustainingnature around them, since their youth stay back with their elders to take care of their land and their local produces.
Hence, 70-80% of your income goes back to local communities
Experiences
Our Local Authentic Adventure Experiences are architected to combine the elements of
#culture by immersing our travelers into local communities and history,
#nature as we connect with water, mountains, greens, fire, and air,
and #adventure activities that transform us through pushing our limits beyond what we normally define as comfortable and convenient.
They are classified into our classic #GoWild group experiences guided fully by our trained and qualified Ridge organizers and Local Guides,
#GoXplor, together we backpack through places that we visit together for the first time, along with a seasoned Ridge Xplorer,
And #GoWithFlow, in cooperation with our sister company DONYA travel consulting, whereby we use our local travel expertise to help you build your travel itinerary as well as coordinate between our verified local communities guides and yourselves.
Yalla, can't wait to have you #GoWild with us soon.
