    I recently went on the Gudibande Trek with Isha Foundation, organized by Namma Trip, and thoroughly enjoyed the experience! It turned out to be a fantastic weekend getaway. A big thanks your team for their excellent care and for showing us beautiful locations.
    I appreciated everyone’s sportiveness and was glad to socialize with most of you. The trek was well-organized and truly memorable.
    I hope to see some of you again! I highly recommend this trek to anyone looking for adventure and a great time!
