With an aim to tap the adventure travel market, Taj Safaris along with Ibex Expeditions and The Outdoor Journal, hosted the ‘outdoor speaker series’ at the Taj Palace, New Delhi. The series brought together some of the world’s top international and Indian explorers sharing their experiences and adventure.

The speaker conclave included sessions addressed by distinguished speakers like Apoorva Prasad, climber, snowboarder, and the founder of The Outdoor Journal; Susan Hunt, Mount Everest climber, and Mandip Singh Soin, explorer, mountaineer and founder of Ibex Expeditions. Embarking on a voyage from the wilderness of the Sahara desert to the desolate landscapes of the Antarctic, from the jungles of Borneo to the giant waves of Hawaii, the series brought together tales of courage, exploration and adventure.

Expressing his thoughts on the series, Soin said, “This speaker series aims to fill the gap in the Indian minds who are discerning explorers and adventure travellers. It gives me immense pleasure to be a part of such activities and we hope to continue with our endeavour promoting adventure travel in the country.”

Speaking at the event, Mridula Tangirala, director-operations, Taj Safaris said, “It has been an honour to be associated with The Outdoor Journal and Ibex Expeditions Speaker Series. Continuing to cater to wildlife enthusiasts and high-end travellers with a luxury bespoke stay, Taj Safaris offers guests an ultimate interpretive wildlife experience in India.”
