This is your journey.
Welcome Adventurers
A letter from founder James Bailey
Any travel book will tell you where to travel, but in self-discovery travel, the growth we seek is found in the how and why. Maybe it’s the allure of the unknown, the solving of mysteries, the joy of new understanding, the expansion of our senses, the pleasure of anticipation, or the self-witnessing of the tiniest houses of time as they reveal the unimaginable. Through this, we unveil new parts of ourselves. Regardless of how and why travel lights you up, we are meant to travel, and it calls us. It’s one of the deepest realms of the human experience.
The most common question I’m asked about India travel is: if I had just two weeks, where should I go? India is a huge and diverse country. I traveled there in 1989 and stayed for a year. It changed my life. Though I met many amazing people and beautiful locations from north to south India, I felt I had barely scratched the surface. So I went back 20+ times. To spare you that much travel, I have refined my 30 years of India travel to the most high-value locations that can be seen in two weeks. We call it the Journey to India or just The Journey.
Welcome to Sevanti Adventures and our life-changing annual India tour. We base our itinerary on wellness, cultural, and spiritual immersion experiences in locations that deepen our understanding of life and inspire personal growth, all while maintaining the highest standards of group and individual safety and wellness.
The main distinctions I found from my travels were between north and south India. The cultural, historical, and even culinary differences are enormous. I want you to experience them both. So, we created an itinerary that does just that. The Journey to India Retreat is a magical mystery tour through the spiritual epicenters of both sacred Indias. It is two tours of India rolled into one: to south and north India.
This is the ultimate India experience. We take you only to those places that most heal the body and mind and inspire the soul’s journey. We also avoid overly commercialized, touristy spiritual centers. Real Indian yogis and spiritual pilgrims would agree. The tour is more than traveling India; it is a deep healing journey through our hearts, awakening us to the call of our soul’s journey. This tour is for you, and it is about you as we gradually witness the sacred beauty of India and draw out the beauty of who we are.
Tour Safety
For the family members who stay home to hold down the fort, we want you to know that your loved one will be on the safest and healthiest itinerary possible. I attend every tour, and I’ve done this itinerary more than twenty times. The support staff is well-seasoned, the stay locations are professional and secure, and the food and water are safe. We want your loved one to have a lifetime experience, grow from it, and come home with more love in their heart to share with you and your family. This tour is about connecting to something deep within us that heals, clears, and realizes what is most important in life.
If you have questions about this tour, the itinerary, safety, etc., please contact me at any time via the Contact page. Leave your name and phone number, and I will personally call to address your concerns. We hope you will join us this March for an adventure of a lifetime!
