Odisha is the home land of 62 types of tribes and 29% of its population is tribal. If meeting others culture, knowing more about the indigenous culture is your subject then there will be no better places than the Tribal Tour in Odisha. Travel to these little villages in the valley, their aged old traditions, the weekly markets, the amazing hikes on the spectacular landscape or the drum bits during evening as they dance to the tune of Dhemsa can not only be an life time travel experience but also a learning experience for all.
Our tours to theses sensitive Odisha tribal villages are focused on the principles of Eco tourism which aims to bring benefit to the community we visit and also based on principles of Responsible Travel where our guests share an authentic experience of rural tourism with proper concern and care for the culture, community and environment.
Our recent rural tourism project Desia at Bantalbiri village near Koraput is an example of our work and commitment for the development of tourism in the region taking locals as an integral part of this challenging Endeavour.
