Founder Recced - Curated - Led

Note from the Founder - Kanupriya Raniwala

"Hi, I am Kanupriya—the founder of Travel AIP—and I have a story to tell before you dive into this section. This may sound dramatic, but it’s the truth. The seed of becoming a travel guide was planted at 5,000 meters, just after 5 a.m., at Goecha-La top, December of 2014. Tears rolled down my cheeks as I watched the western face of Mt. Kanchendzonga being silently washed in crimson dawn light. I knew that very moment I wanted others to feel this too. From then on, the journey of creating meaningful travel experiences had begun, quietly but persistently.
Cut to now, All India Permit Travel & Photography, has been curating and executing community immersive and experience rich tours around food, trade, architecture, art, folklore, culture and lifestyle in the Himalayas for a decade now. Rated 5 stars on Google, our guests from families, couples and solo travellers to mothers with their kids and groups of friends, keep coming back, for private tours and scheduled departures alike.

Every trip on this page is Founder Recced, Curated & Led from the 13+ years experience of living in different parts of the Himalayas.

I build these trips around history because a place makes more sense once you know who walked through it before you.

So here's the deal. If you want to sign up for an adventure of your life, then I've got you sorted!"

Every time I cross the border into Phuentsholing, I feel like I've stepped through a door into a slower, kinder version of time. I've been driving into Bhutan since 2016, and if you ask me why I keep going back with a fresh batch of travelers every single season, my honest answer is this: Bhutan doesn't perform for tourist
