Shakti Guest Reviews

“One of the best experiences I have had in 25 years of being in the travel industry”

Discover how Shakti journeys have created lasting memories - and made a real difference - for our clients.

“Wendy and I would like to thank the Shakti Ladakh personnel and yourself for a great holiday. The staff especially made the holiday relaxing and memorable. The meals were great. In a newly coined word for glamorous camping, it was great ‘Glamping’ in a magnificent country. Thank you again from both of us.”

TERRY & WENDY (AUSTRALIA)

“My Shakti trip was truly a life-altering experience. To be able to immerse oneself in the culture and stay in a home of a native and to experience first hand the beauty of the people...experience their exquisite environs and visit the Buddhist temples...was a one-of-a-kind journey. The Shakti experience was one I would highly recommend to anyone wanting an Authentic experience in a very exotic, unusual land.”

ELLIE COLIN (OVATION TRAVEL, USA)

“Just writing to say that we had the most spectacular vacation in Ladakh. It was truly special.”

JACOB & JONATHON (UK)

“The entire week was a fantastic experience. The settings for the village houses are truly spectacular. The interior design is carefully chosen and attention to detail is clearly noticeable. The mixture of provided luxury and local touches is well balanced. The Shakti concept is fantastic and I cannot praise enough what I have experienced.”

ANDREAS AND ANDREAS (SWITZERLAND)

“Fantastic in every way, especially with the little touches that made an excellent experience into something special. Thank you!”

JAMES CARPENTER (AUDLEY TRAVEL, UK)

“Thank you for this marvelous experience at the Shakti houses. It was like a dream. We had the most excellent guide. He made our trip a very pleasant one. We all cried when we said goodbye to him. Thank you and we hope to go soon to your other Shakti houses in Sikkim.”

MONICA & FELIPE, MEXICO

“Just to pass on thanks for such a special Shakti Himalaya trip to Ladakh. We absolutely loved every moment of it. The houses were beautiful, the service provided by all the staff impeccable, the guiding through the range of activities really excellent and the whole experience faultless. Thank you to all the Shakti team.”

HARRY & VICKY, UK

“A truly authentic luxury experience. We could not have asked for more from our fabulous guide and incredible driver. This a very special, truly unique travel experience. We were bowled over by the warmth and caring expertise of the staff. A 10/10 travel experience - thank you team Shakti!”

FIONA CARRUTHERS (SYDNEY MORNING HERALD, AUSTRALIA)

“Our Shakti experience was truly magical and unforgettable! The Shakti organization has made a relatively isolated destination one that can be experienced in comfort and luxury. It might be pricey but for the services we were given I wouldn’t hesitate to do it again. Our anniversary ‘party’ was so very special! The staff, the village home families, our caring guide ….the list goes on and on….We would wholeheartedly recommend Shakti and their village experience to anyone…and we’re hoping to visit Kumaon this fall and have that Shakti experience again and see friends we made in Ladakh from the Shakti family.”

DICK & ARLEEN, USA

“The village homes are incredible and the entire experience was flawless"

SIMON KREJCIK (GEOEX, USA)

“We had an unbelievably amazing time with the Shakti team. Our guide was divine and we would like to take him home with us. From the village house teams to the 360 Leti team it was a beautiful experience. Special mention to the delightful chef at 360 Leti - he kindly gave me some of his very secret recipes.”

GLENYS & CHRIS (AUSTRALIA)

“I wanted to just drop a note and let you know how much I appreciate everyone's efforts in making my trip one of the most memorable I’ve ever had. I have traveled a bit and your group struck me as the most genuine in making their guests appreciate the land and have compassion for its people. Whoever decided to assign my guide to me was a genius, it was my first time in India as a single female traveller but definitely will not be the last and he was instrumental in making sure of that. I think I have just started my love affair with mountains because of this trip.”

DESSA (PHILIPPINES)

“We had a wonderful trip. The Shakti Kumaon experience was magnificent. The planning and all of the guides were excellent. Thanks.”

ARTHUR & LIAN (USA)

“We were super impressed by the quality of service, food as well as the accommodation. In particular we were very happy with the team and the design of Shakti 360 Leti which was the closest to ‘sleeping under the stars’ in great comfort.”
