Speaking about these latest offerings, Daniel D’souza, head of sales, India & NRI Markets & E-Commerce SOTC Travel said, “Traveller attitudes are changing, and people want to travel better, on a deeper emotional and more personal level. Mass tourism is no longer adequate; tourists are keen on adding new experiences and activities to their itineraries to explore indigenous attractions and explore destinations for the things they are famous for.

We have a range of options on offer for the modern day traveller.”
