Our Story

Our story, like many others, began in a bar with two friends discussing a lofty goal over cocktails.ย As educators, we were sick and tired of the stigma attached to travel for many people. We knew the power of experiential global education, and it was time to act. Sankara Travel was founded that evening as a prime example of how narratives can shift.

That evening, we wrote our values on a cocktail napkin, and we continue to uphold them to this day:

  • Experiential global learning for all
  • Joyous luxurious, stress-free adventures
  • Responsible, interdependent, and economically-just travel
  • Building and sustaining our global community
