Come along as we chronicle in words and pictures a life-changing journey through the heart of Gandhi’s India. Within these pages are provided an intimate experience of unique philanthropic travel though parts of India and groups that remain closely associated with the impact and phenomena of Gandhi: in the past, at present, and most importantly, in the future. “His was a challenging journey and it changed the world.”  He was a delicate and fragile man with glasses and a customary Hindu waistcloth, used a bamboo walking stick, and had a near-toothless smile. His outward appearance was that of a humble unassuming holy man; and fortified only with terrific bravery and an unshakeable dedication to nonviolent resistance Gandhi persevered and ultimately prevailed over one of history’s greatest empires. In recent years there has been sizeable growth in philanthropic-based tourism: using travel to give back to those less fortunate. However, the challenge often faced is that choosing a particular travel mission can be quite daunting; prospects for philanthropic tour missions desiring to make a difference often don’t know where to begin, or whether their efforts will really have an impact. The concept of “doing good” by “giving back,” while engaging in life-changing world travel, is an appealing proposition, but the reality is that we often fail to fully understand our true role as caring people visiting unfamiliar lands and cultures. The dedication of volunteer-abroad type programs, like Peace Corps, Raleigh International and Maximo Nivel and, is laudable, but philanthropic travel fills a different and potentially much wider niche: helping those in need without requiring a long commitment of time. Across the globe, philanthropic travelers are progressively providing monetary resources, time, and talent to increase the wellbeing of less fortunate local and village communities.  Gandhi Legacy Tour of India, ‘The Book’ will lead you on a trek through India, led by Mahatma Gandhi’s grandson and great grandson, to experience an India unknown to most Westerners.
