Say About Us
Sophie Williams (UK)
For a first-timer, India can be overwhelming. Planout didn’t just keep me safe, they gave me the confidence to explore freely - and fall in love with the chaos in the best way.
Emily Carter (Australia)
Traveling solo in India as a 20 year old was scary, but Planout felt like a friend-offering safety, hidden gems, and memories to cherish.
Daniel Carter (Canada)
I traveled with my wife, and Planout crafted a plan that fit our time and budget perfectly. They even told us about Ladakh, yet little known. It’s an India we never imagined.
Anna Müller (Germany)
India felt overwhelming at first - scams, crowds, confusion. Planout turned that chaos into comfort. With a local buddy’s honest guidance, I didn’t feel like a tourist, I felt like I belonged.

Frequently asked questions
Why choose your itinerary over AI-generated ones?
Our plans are crafted by real local travelers—not machines. We tailor each trip to your style, safety, and interests, with insider tips and honest, up-to-date advice you won’t find on generic platforms.
How far in advance should I book your service?
Even if you’re already in India or planning from abroad, we’ve got you covered. Simply book at least 24 hours ahead, and we’ll provide your complete itinerary and support—often within just a few hours.
What if something goes wrong during my trip?
Whether you get sick, lose your bag, face a scam, or feel unsafe—just reach out. We’ll step in fast with local support, emergency contacts, and clear guidance to get you back on track.
How does 24/7 Travel Buddy support work?
After booking, you're matched with a local from the state who shares your itinerary, helps with language, and is available 24/7 via WhatsApp or call. In emergencies, they can even assist in person. It’s like having a local friend on call.
Can I change my itinerary while traveling?
Absolutely. Your plan is flexible! Just message us anytime and we’ll update routes, activities, or contacts—whether due to weather, last-minute inspiration, or local advice.
Do I need an app or setup to get started?
No app needed—just WhatsApp or email for your itinerary and support. Simple, flexible, and travel-friendly.
