Vadodara engineer leaves corporate career to lead 80 rural tourism trips a year

Chirag Munjani, an engineer from Vadodara, founded Rural Pleasure Journeys to promote rural and experiential tourism across India. The initiative links travelers with local communities and emphasizes cultural immersion over traditional sightseeing. Over the years the organization has broadened its offerings and now runs roughly 70 to 80 trips each year in several states. Participants can take part in activities such as salt production and wildlife conservation, which deepen their understanding of local livelihoods.
