Ghum India Ghum is a Delhi‑based destination management company founded in 2014 by Sarvjeet Sankrit. (ghumindiaghum.com) The operator regularly publishes Kerala‑focused web‑stories and travel guides that highlight lesser‑visited spots on the state map, including Nelliyampathy in Palakkad and Alleppey (Alappuzha) backwaters in its recent Kerala content. (ghumindiaghum.com) Its site features multi‑day Kerala itineraries described as 6–8 day packages that connect Kochi/Cochin, Munnar, Thekkady (Periyar) and Alleppey, framing those routes for relaxed, slower travel rather than single‑day stopovers. (ghumindiaghum.com) Advertised starting prices for Kerala tours on Ghum India Ghum begin at about INR 27,999 per person (roughly US$359) for their short Kerala packages listed online. (ghumindiaghum.com) Beyond Kerala, the company’s 2026 editorial picks emphasise remote destinations such as Hanle (Ladakh) and Lahaul‑Spiti, signalling an organisational emphasis on offbeat, low‑crowd itineraries across its marketing. (ghumindiaghum.com) Ghum India Ghum lists recognition by India’s Ministry of Tourism and industry bodies on its homepage, and maintains hundreds of customer reviews on platforms including TripAdvisor (about 471 reviews) and Trustpilot.
