Responsibility

A destination we operate in, not just sell.

Thirty years in the same communities changes how you think about them. This is what that looks like in practice — not a policy page, an actual foundation.

The RGD Group's charity

Sutra Foundation

An education and community foundation run by the same group behind Your India Travel, Aussie Grand Tours and Kiwi Grand Ground Tours — not a marketing add-on, a separate organisation doing separate work.

How we operate on the ground

Local guides, directly employed

The guides on our itineraries work with us directly, not through a labour subcontractor — better pay, better accountability, better client experience.

Long-term supplier relationships

Hotels and transport partners we've worked with for years, not the lowest bidder on a given date — it changes how a destination gets treated over time.

Community-first itinerary design

Where a lesser-known route serves the client as well as the famous one, we'll route through it — spreading tourism income rather than concentrating it.

Questions about our approach?

Happy to talk through specifics with any partner agency doing due diligence.
