JOURNEYS WITHIN JOURNEYS

There was a time when world travel meant entering into the great unknown. The generations who explored before us were not inspired by chasing the latest trend or creating the visage of a life of luxury. Rather, they were inspired by something deep inside their spirit: the thirst for knowledge, the quest to conquer fear, the passion for a greater connection with the earth, community, and a journey to discover the innermost self. We believe this time is not lost, and that travel for the next generation may be more important than ever. The act of exploring a new destination is more than a trendy vacation; it can satisfy our deepest curiosity and provide profound insight. We know from our own first hand experience that the right kind of travel can be the most important experience of your life. We invite you to join us and explore the fringes of the great unknown, to journey afar, in order to journey within.

Our founder’s legacy of destinations discovered, trails blazed, and relationships formed all over the world lives on with us. The pure and profound ways in which they journeyed are not lost, but passed on to a new generation of travelers seeking experiences that both enrich and enlighten.

Testimonials

"Our journey was seamless and thoughtfully planned. We will certainly connect with you again for future destination planning. " Ms. Helen Loh (Oct 2016, Bhutan)

"My family and I had the best time in Bhutan! We enjoyed everything from the food, the culture, the beautiful scenery; we even enjoyed the challenge of climbing up the tiger's nest. We enjoyed the whole experience! Please extend our gratitude to the whole Amala team. We appreciate all the preparations you made to make our trip special. I would also like to recognize our guide, Dorji and our driver Tapge for being such great company." Ms. Nicole See Diet (Dec 2016, Bhutan)

"Bhutan - The trip to Bhutan was much more than what we had expected thanks to Amala. They were able to customize and tailor to our needs in perfectly balancing between luxury stay without compromising the local experience. The team is also extremely professional and knowledgeable. I would certainly go back with Amala again. Mr. Jonathan & Mrs. Karen Tung (Apr 2015, Bhutan)

Sri Lanka - Whenever I think about traveling to an exotic location and the trouble I'd have to go through planning and getting the necessary access/visa, I now think of Amala. Sri Lanka is a large country with many destinations to cover not to mention us wanting to take a last minute trip there during peak tourist season. Thankfully, Amala was able to pull together a trip within a week and as always, we loved the Sri Lanka Amala presented to us." Mr. Jonathan & Mrs. Karen Tung (Feb 2017, Sri Lanka)

"Amanda, who coordinated and planned from Singapore, was flexible, communicative, lovely to deal with, ensuring that our family's needs were met, during the planning phase. While we were in Bhutan, the local guides, Mani, Dorji and Rinzin, were just amazing. They were accommodative to our needs, paid attention to what we liked and didn't, and catered our daily activities to suit us. They were warm and very hospitable, by far one of the best tours we have been on!" Ms. Jia En Teo (Apr 2017, Bhutan)
