Explore the world like a local!

badams TRAVEL offers unique adventures to destinations a bit less traveled. Our local guides and leaders love to share with you their deep love of their homes. Whether they’re talking about the history and culture, explaining the architecture, taking you through an open-air market, or helping you spot wildlife unique to the location, their enthusiasm is palpable. And catching!

What makes us different from other tour companies? It’s the relationships we build with individuals and companies in the countries we visit and with our travelers who return with us year after year. We don’t just hire local guides and drivers, we send them birthday cakes and pastries, bring them guide books and accessories that are hard for them to obtain, they become part of our family.

And we keep our tour groups small. Generally, between five and nine guests. Our goal is to give you a personal experience with minimal impact on the local environment and culture.

We make every effort to choose small, locally-owned accommodations and restaurants, preferably those who work to operate as “green” businesses. We prefer to use indigenous organizations for day trip experiences where ever possible.

We partner with local guides, drivers, hotels, restaurants, local sites, and indigenous organizations to bring you an experience that immerses you in the local culture as much as possible in the time we have together. We want you to experience our destinations, not just see them.
