Our Philosophy

Community Based Tourism - At Virasat Experiences we encourage travellers to meet other people , to get acquainted with local culture – to interact and share experiences with locals.

We are committed to promote community based tourism and rural tourism initiatives in India in alliance with NGO’s, grass-root development agencies and organizations. To promote and encourage the preservation of living heritage, culture and the architectural wonders of India,to empower local communities and provide employment though small scale tourism initiatives.

Responsible Tourism- Erosion of cultural traditions,loss of biodiversity and poverty .These are some of the global challenges , which at the same time are specific to the regions that we operate.

Cultural and Environmental preservation are the core of our approach.We create commercial tourism operations to facilitate sustainable development along with effective ecosystem management.We emphasise the need to create opportunities for locals, specially from Tourism,which until now has barely benefited the local indigenous communities

Supporting Positive Development– A fair percentage of our profits are channelized towards social and environmental development.The idea is to assist poor rural and urban population into more secure and independent community through judicial use of natural resources, green energy resources, Self Help Groups and creating micro enterprises.
