- 80% profits donated to charity
[wpdreams_ajaxsearchlite]
At Reality Tours & Travel, we believe in tourism as a force for local change. That’s why we designed a unique profit-sharing model: 80% of our post-tax profits from every tour directly fund community projects run by our sister charity, Reality Gives, in the areas where we do tours. This approach has earned us awards for responsible tourism. Over the years, through Reality Gives, we’ve supported thousands of young people in low-income communities with access to quality education and opportunities for a brighter future.
Watch our journey come to life in this special video created for our 20th anniversary. Co-founders Chris and Krishna share how Reality Tours & Travel began in 2005 with a single tour in Dharavi, challenging stereotypes and celebrating the community’s energy, creativity, and dignity.
In 2009, our non-profit Reality Gives was born, ensuring tourism directly benefits local communities through education and opportunity. As we grew, our impact expanded across Mumbai, Delhi, rural India, and into small-group, multi-day tours across India, connecting travellers to both iconic destinations and real local life in a meaningful way.
With heartfelt voices from our founders, team, and community, the video shows how responsible tourism continues to create lasting positive change for everyone involved.
