the origin story, short version

We got tired of trips
that stayed in the chat.

Tripwaley exists because every friend group has one legendary trip that never leaves the group chat. We turned that into a machine: fixed dates, guaranteed batches, trip captains, and buses that board in your own city — not just Delhi.

How a batch works.

Pick & hold

Choose a trip and date, hold your seat with a 40% advance — on the site or over WhatsApp. Takes about 90 seconds.

Join the thread

You're added to the batch's WhatsApp group with your captain. Packing lists, pickup points, playlists — all handled there.

Just show up

Board in your own city. Stays, transport, permits, chai stops — the captain runs it, you live it.

The captains.

Every batch ships with one. Trained, certified, chronically early.

The 2 AM questions.

Are these trips solo-friendly?

Completely. Most of our travellers join solo — you're placed in a small batch with a certified trip captain, and by day two it feels like a friend group.

What does the price include?

Stays, most meals, all transport from the boarding city, permits, and your trip captain. The exact inclusions are listed on every trip page — no hidden costs.

How do I hold a seat?

Tap 'Hold a seat', drop your number, and we block it free for 24 hours while you decide. No payment needed to hold.

What's the cancellation policy?

Free cancellation until 7 days before departure. Closer to the date, partial refunds apply — the full policy is shared before you pay.
