I recently completed a Flash Pack tour of India and had a very positive experience overall. Highlights included visiting the Taj Mahal and seeing tigers, which was particularly memorable.
We were fortunate to have an excellent tour guide, Pankaj, who handled a challenging situation with professionalism and patience. He was consistently friendly, knowledgeable, respectful, and accommodating—even with some difficult personalities, myself included.
Our drivers, Raj and Avneet, also ensured our journeys were comfortable and were always considerate of needed rest and toilet breaks.
We also had the chance to try a variety of interesting foods and enjoy unique cultural experiences, which added to the trip’s appeal.
The tour offered a good level of flexibility, allowing us to move at our own pace.
Our group consisted of around 10 people, mostly working professionals in their 40s, with some in their 30s and 50s. Everyone was fairly like‑minded and gelled well.
While the group leaned more heavily female, it wasn’t an issue.
As with any tour, there was someone who was reckless, annoying and dominating the guide’s time, but that’s to be expected. Just have to hold your tongue for a week or so.
Most of the hotels were quite good, particularly those at the beginning and end of the trip. The hotel in Jaipur could have been better, as the marble floors amplified noise from rooms above, making it difficult to sleep at times.
One thing that flashpack does really well is the App with the Itinary and also the Whatsapp group that lets everybody build a good rapport before the tour starts.
I was actually excited and looking forward to meeting the group.
Overall, I’m glad I chose to tour with Flash Pack, even though it is on the pricier side. Based on this experience, I’ll definitely be booking more Flash Pack trips in the future.

Craving adventure but your friends are too busy to join? I’ve been there. In my 30s, I wanted to travel but everyone around me was settling down. Every group trip I found felt too young, too old, or just not me. I wanted to go solo without feeling alone. That’s why I started Flash Pack: to bring like-minded people together for epic, feel-good adventures around the world. We create premium social adventures for solo travelers in their 30s, 40s and 50s. 90% of people join solo, and everyone’s at a similar life stage. Our groups are capped at 16 - no coach-loads, ever. The experiences are things you couldn’t easily do alone, like glamping in converted Land Rovers on the Serengeti or sailing to a secret island in the Philippines with a private chef. Each trip features handpicked, stylish hotels - from rooftop pools to off-grid jungle lodges. Our local guides are the best you’ll meet: warm, expert, and brilliant at building group chemistry. And unlike other group travel companies, everything’s included - so all you have to do is show up. I hope you’ll join us.
