Local Adventures India by Meraki Pvt Ltd Reviews 

My friend and I visited Bali in June, and it was an incredible experience. A huge thank you to Himanshu and the team at Local Adventures by Meraki Trips for planning everything so seamlessly—from our flights and hotels to sightseeing and activities.

A special mention to our chauffeur, Mayun, who was exceptional—always punctual, friendly, knowledgeable, and happy to introduce us to delicious local food along the way. All the hotels were very well chosen and conveniently located. My personal favorite was Pearl of Trawangan in the Gili Islands.Some of the best parts of our trip were the sunrise Jeep ride at Mount Batur, the fun ATV ride in Ubud, the beautiful Kecak dance at Uluwatu, the amazing day trip to Nusa Penida, visiting Bali's temples and waterfalls, and scuba diving in Gili Trawangan, where we got to see turtles and colorful marine life. Thank you for making this trip so memorable. I would happily recommend Local Adventures by Meraki Trips to anyone planning a Bali vacation.

My sister, my niece, a friend, and I visited Bali in June, and it turned out to be one of the most memorable trips we've ever had. From our flights and accommodations to all the logistics and activities, everything was perfectly planned by Himanshu from Local Adventures by Meraki Trips.

We are truly grateful for the effort and attention to detail that went into organizing our trip. Everything was seamless, allowing us to simply relax and enjoy every moment.

A special mention goes to our chauffeur, Biman, who was absolutely wonderful. He was always punctual, incredibly kind and knowledgeable, and kept his car spotless throughout the trip. One of the highlights was that he introduced us to so many delicious local foods, making our experience even more authentic.

The hotels were thoughtfully selected, and each location offered something unique—from the vibrant atmosphere of Seminyak to the beautiful beaches of Gili Trawangan and the peaceful surroundings of Ubud. Our personal favorite was the private villa in Ubud overlooking the lush rice fields. Waking up to that view every morning was simply magical.

The sunrise Jeep tour to Mount Batur was an unforgettable experience—absolutely worth waking up early for! Kudos to Himanshu for recommending and arranging it. The ATV ride in Ubud was another highlight and so much fun.

Thank you, Himanshu and the entire team at Local Adventures by Meraki Trips, for creating such a wonderful and hassle-free experience. We truly appreciate all your hard work and can't wait to plan our next adventure with you.

Much love,

First of all - best price we could find for our trip with Meraki. Add to that the constant availability and support throughout the trip. Add to that a few extra surprises like airport pick ups and drops all. Equals a trusted travel partner. Have been cooking trips through Meraki and Himanshu since 2018, and shall continue doing so!

Travelling experience with Meraki has been very smooth and effortless. Their coordination with us from planning the trip to hotels everything has meet our expectations. A very big thanks to the team and specially Himanshu.

Keep up the good work.

We had a wonderful experience with Local Adventures by Meraki. They helped my husband plan the most beautiful itinerary at the Taj Lake Palace, where he proposed to me. Everything was perfectly arranged and truly magical. We’re so grateful for such a memorable experience! WE ALSO GOT A FREE UPGRADE 🔥

We had planned a family trip to Jaisalmer and were evaluating options online when we got connected to Mr Himanshu. We shared our requirements & preferences and accordingly he advised Hotel Gulaal for the city stay & Bordi Camp for the camp stay. Both these options turned out to be super comfortable, super warm...the hospitality was beyond expectations, we felt at HOME. Mr. Himanshu kept checking on us, advised sightseeing & local food options (given we were travelling with our 3 yrs old twins). The staff at both the stays were super warm and went out of the way to make us feel comfortable. Overall a super trip....!!!

They don't just create itinerary, they create memories to cherish for lifetime. For someone who doesn't know much about planning and budgeting, this team is just what one needs. We gave them our budget, they created our holidays taking care of us from boarding to our journey on the return. Their effort is just incredible with respect to destination choices, stays are unique and comfortable. Our preferences are taken care of. Our trip to Vietnam was leisurely and wonderful only because our duty was to enjoy and not care about what to do next every morning. Thank you to the team for always pampering us with the best trips and comfort..

Had a great experience with Local Adventures India. Himanshu came highly recommended by a friend, and he was very proactive in his approach and help in planning our Jaisalmer itinerary for our anniversary. His insights helped us plan a lovely glamping stay at Bordi camps, Jaisalmer for a unique stay at a good deal. Himanshu's easy approachability for even the smallest doubts, local details of the stay and travel recommendations, places to check out, eat as well as the weather (especially considering we were travelling with a 4year old), were all highly appreciated. Recommend reaching out to them for a comfortable and hassle-free planning.

"A Dream Vacation!"
Our Singapore trip felt like a dream come true, all thanks to your perfect planning and guidance. Every detail was taken care of – from comfortable hotels and transport to well-arranged tickets and even delicious food options! Thank you so much for making our holiday so smooth and memorable. Highly recommended!

Excellent service right from planning (according to my requirements) to the actual trip! Himamshu from Meraki Travels was very attentive to my requests and planned a great trip. Car was super clean and our chauffeur Ashok was a real gem of a person! Can’t praise the whole team enough

Viajé a la India en 2016 y, al principio, organizamos el recorrido por nuestra cuenta. Sin embargo, en el camino conocimos a Himanshu de Local Adventures India, y gracias a él, nuestro viaje se volvió mucho más estratégico y bien planificado. Nos ayudó a estructurar el itinerario según los lugares que queríamos visitar y nuestro presupuesto, además de gestionar las reservas de hoteles y algunas actividades que hicieron la experiencia aún más agradable y especial.

Su apoyo no solo nos permitió ahorrar dinero, sino que también nos aseguró que todo saliera según lo planeado. Himanshu tiene una gran experiencia, fue muy paciente ante todas nuestras dudas, la comunicación con él fue siempre clara y respetuosa, lo que nos transmitió mucha confianza.

Aunque aún no he tenido la oportunidad de volver a la India, cuando lo haga, sin duda volveré a planificar mi viaje con él. Súper recomendado

I left with my group in January for Kerala, India.
The trip was WONDERFUL. Himanshu, who organized everything, took care of us in everything. We arrived and had a fabulous welcome. Our guide Mujeeb and our driver Tijoo were amazing, we felt like family. The places visited were beautiful and the organization was impeccable. There is nothing I didn't like, I would do it all again. We visited the beautiful expanses of greenery in Munnar with the tea plantations, Hindu temples, the city of Kochi and Varkala (highly recommended) and we also had a wonderful experience on a "House Boat". Even the choice of hotels was fantastic, some were completely immersed in nature. What can I say…. I recommend the agency dispassionately.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I would highly recommend this type of trip; it was wonderful to experience a new culture with total immersion in food, tourist attractions, and authentic local places. We were accompanied by very experienced tour guides, and they spoke perfect English and Spanish. I recommend it 100%!

I had an incredible experience with Local Adventures India during my one-month journey across the country. As a solo traveler, I appreciated how seamlessly everything was organized while still allowing room for exploration and spontaneity. Our group included three girls from Portugal, and despite coming from different backgrounds, we quickly bonded over shared experiences in Jaipur, Delhi, Jodhpur, Rishikesh, Varanasi, and more.

The guides were knowledgeable, friendly, and truly passionate about showcasing the beauty and culture of India. Whether it was exploring historical forts, navigating the bustling streets of Delhi, or experiencing the spiritual atmosphere of Varanasi, every stop felt meaningful. The itinerary was well-balanced, blending iconic sights with hidden gems that I wouldn’t have discovered on my own.

What stood out most was the personal touch—our guides went above and beyond to ensure we had an authentic and immersive experience. From recommending the best local food spots to sharing insights about the places we visited, their dedication made the trip even more special.

If you’re looking for a well-organized yet flexible way to explore India, Local Adventures India is a fantastic choice. Highly recommended for solo travelers and small groups who want to see the country beyond the typical tourist path!
