The Pravasi Traveller

06/04/2025

Just returned from an incredible journey attending Rendez-vous France 2025 in the vibrant city of Lyon, followed by a captivating Pre-Fam educational tour through the Ardèche and Drôme regions in the Rhône-Alpes—and I’m still soaking it all in!

Ardèche, with its dramatic gorges and ancient caves like the breathtaking Aven d’Orgnac, feels like stepping into a natural wonderland. Its raw, untouched beauty is perfect for travelers seeking adventure and authenticity.

Drôme, on the other hand, is a sensory haven—lavender fields stretching endlessly under the sun, fragrant olive groves, artisanal truffle farms, and the sweetest nougat from Montélimar. It’s a dream for gourmet explorers and slow travelers alike.

What made this journey even more special? The people. From all over Europe, the U.S., and Canada—we came as strangers, left as a bonded family. These shared experiences are what truly enrich our profession.

A heartfelt thank you to Sheetal Wadhwa Munshaw from Atout France India for curating this experience, and to Asmita Pawar & Pusha Kothi for making every moment unforgettable.

I’m returning with fresh perspectives and a new region to craft immersive journeys for our Pravasis—because every corner of France has its own story to tell.

We love hearing from our guests about their travels. Thank you to Rishabh and Shivani for sharing your recent experience in South Africa.

“ So we used The Pravasi for my honeymoon recently. I spoke to them about what i wanted, the locations, hotels, my likes and dislikes and they got back to me with suggestions and a curated programme. I was very happy with everything. We went to South Africa with their help. From stay, travel, food to itinerary everything was planned. I had someone to talk to at Pravasi and locally 24x7 if i ever needed something. I had a driver guide full time. Activities, food was already paid for. Their staff were really friendly. Locally i met Yvette wh was also very open and friendly. We made changes to plans sometimes but they were very accomodating about that too and helped us with the same.

Overall very happy with Kamaya and her team.
Thanks for everything, loved it!”
