- Girls On The Go Travel Club (GOTG) was started in 2008 by erstwhile corporate lawyer Piya Bose on a Zero Cash business model after an inspiring, impromptu overland trip from Lucknow (India) – Nepal – Tibet.
-
- The first GOTG trip was to Ladakh in August 2008. Since then, GOTG has taken women trekking up to the Everest Base Camp, walking under water in Bali, expedition cruising in Antarctica, photographing the Northern Lights at the Arctic Circle, exploring volcanoes in Reunion Island and Santorini, camping like nomads in Mongolia, living with erstwhile head hunters in Nagaland etc.
-
- In keeping with the spirit that barriers are only in the mind and not the body, GOTG has helped women with disabilities and women as old as 90 years go on soul seeking adventures.
-
- In the next step of our journey, GOTG hopes to help women from lower socio economic backgrounds travel and experience the same perspective shifts.
-
- GOTG has also shifted from doing ‘women only tours’ to ‘tours for women’. Though our group tours are only for women, we also have ‘groups within groups’ for women who are comfortable travelling with safe mixed gender groups. These are usually one of a kind special interest tours organised by our trusted partners where the larger group has both men and women. GOTG forms a smaller group within the larger group and GOTG travellers are always paired with female room mates.
