“I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.”

— Robert Frost

A Well Executed Winter Spiti

Our Winter Spiti was a well-executed 9 days expedition. Rahul da's constant inputs, route guidance, and real-time advice made the journey smooth and safe. Every single detail was thoughtfully planned — from comfortable cozy stays in freezing conditions to well-timed café stops and acclimatization breaks. As two sisters traveling in harsh climate conditions, safety was our top priority and they delivered beyond expectations.

Winter Spiti – A Family Trip to Remember

I travelled with my family (me, my husband and my 9 year old son) to Spiti Valley in peak winter. The trip was great and we all enjoyed it very much. We covered all the places which were planned — Chitkul, Tabo, Nako lake, Pin Valley, and even Komic, the world's highest village. The accommodation and food was wonderful and best in class.

Overland Bhutan – Fantastic with PWR

I spent 15 days with Rohit, Rahul & Saurabh from Delhi to Bhutan via Nepal and back. Planet Way Round looked after me with such love and affection during the entire 4280 kms journey. Never did I feel insecure or alone. This was my 3rd trip with Planet Way Round and I have enjoyed every one of them!

Bhutan Winter Drive

We travelled to Bhutan for an adventure off-road experience. The itinerary was thoughtfully planned, covering stunning scenic locations, and all arrangements — hotels, guides, and immigration formalities — were seamlessly managed. Planet Way Round's professionalism and attention to detail truly stand out.
