ABOUT US
TRAVEL THAT TELLS A STORY
The Story of Our Founder
Local Wanderer was founded by Isha Sheth, a passionate traveller whose love for exploration began long before this company came to life.
From wandering through quiet village lanes to uncovering hidden gems tucked away in bustling cities, Isha always believed that the real magic of travel lies beyond predictable tourist spots. Over the years, she noticed that most tour packages showcased only the common highlights, missing the true soul of a destination — its people, flavours, culture, stories, and untouched corners.
This realisation sparked her vision: to build a travel company that celebrates authenticity and curates journeys the way a true local would.
What We Create at Local Wanderer
Guided by this philosophy, Local Wanderer helps travellers experience India and the world in their purest, most meaningful form.
Every itinerary blends comfort with curiosity — pairing iconic attractions with lesser-known experiences, immersive encounters, and hidden treasures often overlooked by traditional tours. Whether it’s a peaceful retreat in South India, an adventure across the Himalayan ranges, a cultural trail through the Northeast, a deep dive into Central India, a heritage-rich journey through the West, or a calm island escape, each trip is designed to feel personal, memorable, and deeply connected to the destination.
We specialise in custom-designed travel plans tailored to every traveller type — group tours, family vacations, solo journeys, school picnics, corporate retreats, and exclusive honeymoon escapes. Each itinerary is carefully crafted to offer the perfect balance of premium-quality experiences and budget-friendly comfort, ensuring that every traveller finds their ideal journey.
Why Travellers Choose Us
What truly sets Local Wanderer apart is our commitment to authenticity, reliability, and traveller comfort. With deep regional expertise, a passion for discovering hidden gems, and a strong focus on safety and seamless planning, we design journeys that feel effortless, enriching, and beautifully curated from start to finish.
As we grow, our vision remains rooted in one belief: to redefine the way people travel — making each journey more meaningful, more personal, and always beyond the ordinary.
At its heart, Local Wanderer is Isha’s promise to help people explore the world the way she has always loved experiencing it: genuinely, thoughtfully, and far beyond the obvious.
