I and the other participants are always amazed by the staff's ability to fit rich, informative professional interchange and visits along with the highlights of the country into the under-two-week timeframe ideal for busy professionals.

      Morocco is a fascinating place. Its history is rich and its people are friendly, warm, helpful and interested. I loved the energy of the various Medinas we visited. The food was healthy and delicious, and informed the experience of the culture. The majority of the hotels were truly amazing examples of Moroccan hospitality. The Sofitels in Marrakesh and Casablanca, unfortunately, left a lot to be desired, especially the one in Casablanca.
      By Magaly M for Mental Health Journey to Morocco on Jan 25, 2024
      Maggie, we are thrilled you enjoyed your journey to Morocco and thank you for continuing to travel with us on our career enrichment journeys. Having our Nanda family travel over and over again is such a joy for us and we so appreciate you. Thank you for the feedback on the hotels, this has been well received and will inform our future decisions. We are excited for Colombia!

      This was my first time using Nanda Journeys to lead a global team. I have led teams with other companies but wanted to try a new company. Nanda Journeys did not disappoint. From the moment I embarked on Nanda Journeys’ cultural and healthcare-focused trip to India, I knew I was in for an extraordinary experience, but nothing could have prepared me for the profound impact this journey would have on me. Nanda Journeys curated a masterful itinerary that seamlessly blended educational enrichment with cultural immersion. As a healthcare professional, the opportunity to learn about India's healthcare system firsthand was invaluable. We visited local clinics and major hospitals, interacting with Indian healthcare professionals who shared insights into their challenges and innovations. This exchange wasn't just informative; it was deeply inspiring, offering a fresh perspective on healthcare delivery. But this journey was more than just a professional learning experience. Nanda Journeys ensured that we were steeped in the rich immersion of Indian culture. We explored bustling markets and serene temples, savored the vibrant flavors of authentic Indian cuisine, and were mesmerized by traditional music and dance performances. The accommodations arranged by Nanda Journeys were top-notch, offering comfort and luxury after days filled with exploration and learning. Their guides were knowledgeable and passionate, not just about the sites we visited but about ensuring we had a meaningful and personal experience. One of the most striking aspects of this trip was the perfect balance between structure professional activities and tourist exploration activities. Whether it was a visit to the Taj Mahal, a rickshaw ride through the lively streets of Delhi, or a reflective moment at the Keoladeo National Park and Bird sanctuary, each day was a blend of awe, learning, and personal growth. What sets Nanda Journeys apart is their commitment to creating connections. We didn't just observe; we engaged. We met with local families, shared meals, and exchanged stories. These moments of genuine connection were heartwarming and underscored the universal aspects of humanity, transcending borders and cultures. My journey to India with Nanda Journeys was more than just a trip; it was a life-altering experience. It broadened my horizons, challenged my perspectives, and left me with a deeper understanding of both the Indian culture and its healthcare system. I returned home not just with memories and knowledge, but with a renewed passion for my profession and a profound appreciation for the beauty and complexity of India. Nanda Journeys didn't just promise an educational tour; they delivered an unforgettable expedition into the heart of India.

      The trip was wonderful. Guatemala is stunningly beautiful. People everywhere were very friendly and the food was fresh and delicious. The Nanda tour guides were exemplary. They went above and beyond at every step along the way from translating to assisting those of us with limited mobility. Our driver handled the roads and traffic with ease and made sure we were comfortable on each journey. Nanda Journeys is exceptional and I am sure this will be the first of many tours I take with them.
