A lovely, over-the-top red carpet welcome, shall we say? The Shri Sumathinath Jain temple in Madurai was beautifully decked up to welcome a visiting Jain monk. Did you know that Jainism flourished in these parts of south India over 1500 years ago? Join us on the ‘Once Upon a Madurai trail’ and we’ll tell you the stories. #Storytrails #WalkingTours #OnceUponAMadurai #Madurai #History #Heritage #heritageTours #instatravel #exploreindia #India #Jainism
How do you keep a memory of all the places you have travelled to? Some maintain a journal, some collect pictures or souvenirs while some leave a helpful tip or review for other travelers. Pauline and Ian who joined us on the Peacock trail, are an English couple who live in France. They enjoy travelling, and make it a point to go overseas at least once a year. Which means... they have seen many restrooms across the world. And they have a way of chronicling their travels by their restroom experiences. They give restrooms a star rating. :) Here’s Pauline’s classification. Do you have a pet peeve about toilets at tourist places? #WalkingTour #Storytrails #Chennai #Madurai #Pondicherry #Mumbai #Trivandrum #PeacockTrail #IncredibleIndia #EverydayStories
Storyteller meets storyteller! Our storyteller Karunya had the pleasure of hosting Laura Simms, American storyteller extraordinaire. Laura joined the Peacock trail though Mylapore and had a great time. Her favourite story? The one about the peacock of course. J #Storytrails #WalkingTours #PeacockTrail #Mylapore #History #Heritage #Storyteller #heritageTours #instatravel #exploreindia #India
When asked to pose... Meet Aditi, our cheerful centre head and storyteller in Trivandrum. She spent her growing years between Mumbai, Kuala Lumpur, Palakkad and Delhi.

A corporate trainer and Human Resources consultant for many years, she enjoys meeting people, swapping stories and showing off her city. Aditi is a storyteller on our trails - one of a motley group of articulate, well-read individuals with a passion for history. Would you like to join our team? We have both full time and part time openings in Chennai, Mumbai, Kochi, Trivandrum, Madurai and Pondicherry.
