Out of all my travels this was the best!
November 25, 2025by: James Hamilton - AustraliaProgram: Teaching, Women Empowerment, Medical & Disabled Care - IndiaFrom the preparation till my farewell at the share house the experience was amazing. Organisation was good, facilities excellent, camaraderie fantastic but the opportunity to do something worthwhile while one experienced another culture was the best part.
The food was exceptional and was very pleased with the staff.
August 20, 2024by: Kay ConwayProgram: Women Empowerment in IndiaI’m very satisfied with the program and would love to volunteer again but next stay longer. The accommodation was spacious. Very humble and quiet. All my expectations have been met. The food was exceptional and was very pleased with the staff.
The house was comfortable and had everything we needed
August 20, 2024by: Mikaela ByersProgram: Volunteer to Teach English and Travel IndiaVery satisfied - lots of information and support. Very welcomed and the schools were friendly. Reshhia was a great support in the lesson planning and in class. The house was comfortable and had everything we needed. We were given a tour and told clearly where everything was. The food is delicious! Light and tasty with a good range of dishes and perfect portion sizes! One of the highlights! The schools were easily accessible via tuktuk or walking. Reshma made transpo very easy and always made sure we got where we needed to be.

What inspired you to travel abroad?
It was my passion for travel, volunteering, and love for India that led me to start Rainbow Voluntours. I think its really important for travellers to get involved with the locals to truly understand Indian culture, Indian people, Indian society, and Indian history. India to me is an experience and I want to give individuals coming to India an experience of India – through which they can learn, and discover India differently.

What inspired you to travel abroad?
I love volunteering, and volunteered in my gap year in the Nepal and also in Greece. After that, I have been involved in many volunteering programs on various projects. When the international director of Volunteering Journey’s was in Nepal to select a reliable country coordinator, my team got an opportunity to meet her and we got selected because of our work experience and expertise. I am very happy to represent the organization in Nepal.
