Big Five Tours & Expeditions a leading adventure and sustainable travel operator has struck gold with its recently launched Kids Kouncil™, a junior think tank created by Big Five to discover what children, ages 6 to 15, see as important to them, guiding the company in creating extraordinary itineraries for family travel.
The just launched itinerary, ‘India Kids Kouncil™ Approved,’ the first in this collection, includes experiences ranging from exploring the natural habitat of tigers in Panna National Park, to visiting the one-of-a-kind Sulabh International Museum of Toilets, to a fun and thrilling family Segway tour through New Delhi.
“I had a Eureka moment as I watched these kids working together to create the first of its kind ‘India Kids Kouncil™ Approved’ adventure,” said Ashish Sanghrajka, President of Big Five Tours & Expeditions. “That told me that we were on the right track. If you want to change the world, start out on a positive path that inspires confidence and creativity with the ones who will one-day be in charge. Let them see that their opinions can make a difference now and they will be more willing to lead the changes of the future. That is what our Kids Kouncil™ initiative is really all about.”
