The women behind the map
Built by two travellers who refused to hurry
Two friends, six years, one promise: travel that feels personal.
GoGo Travels began the way the best journeys do — with two friends on a slow boat down the Mekong, wondering why organised travel had to feel so... organised. Six years and sixty departures later, Namrata Malkoti and Himani Joshi have walked every route they sell, eaten at every recommended table, and slept in every hotel in the catalogue. They build journeys for travellers who want the depth of independent travel with none of the logistics — and they still personally lead every single group.
Namrata Malkoti
Co-founder · Routes & Relationships
The planner. Namrata has spent six years building friendships with boatmen in Laos, historians in Siem Reap and chefs in Penang — the people who turn a good trip into a story you'll tell for years.
Himani Joshi
Co-founder · Experience & Care
The noticer. Himani reads a group like a book — who needs a quiet morning, who wants one more market, whose anniversary falls mid-trip. The little kindnesses our travellers write home about? Usually her.

What we stand for
Four promises, kept on every departure
Walked before sold
No journey enters our catalogue until a founder has personally done every kilometre of it — hotels, meals, drives, the lot.
People over places
The magic of travel is who you meet. We keep groups tiny and build in real time with local friends we've made over six years.
Tread gently
Family-run stays, local guides paid properly, no elephant riding, no over-touristed traps at peak hour. Asia has given us everything; we give back.
Radical honesty
If a trip isn't right for you, we'll say so. If the sea is rough that month, we'll tell you. Trust is our entire business model.
