Meet your Host
Deepika Rao, a passionate strength and conditioning coach and avid traveler, found inspiration for a venture that would blend her love for adventure, fitness, and exploration.
Deepika’s journey began during a solo trip to Slovakia, a country known for its breathtaking landscapes and rich cultural heritage. As she trekked through the Carpathian Mountains and immersed herself in the local culture, she realized the transformative power of combining travel, adventure, and culinary experiences.
The spark ignited during her travels, grew into a blazing passion when Deepika embarked on a week-long holiday in Dharamshala, India. Nestled in the serene Himalayan foothills, Dharamshala provided the perfect backdrop for her vision. She spent her days hiking through lush forests, relishing the panoramic views of the snow-capped peaks, and indulging in the diverse local cuisine.
Deepika understood that the essence of a truly enriching travel experience lay in the harmonious blend of physical activity, cultural immersion, and gastronomic delights.
Motivated by this revelation, Deepika Rao returned to Hyderabad with a mission—to create a Luxury Adventure Company that would curate bespoke holidays, offering a unique fusion of adventure, exploration, and local culinary experiences.
She believes in providing authentic cultural experiences, giving travelers a genuine connection to the destinations they visit. Each itinerary is designed to harmonize adventure, exploration, and local flavors. She intends to give an experience that is a transformative journey for the mind, body, and soul.
