Gokarna Diaries

It was a great experience with Gokarna Diaries. They involved us in the trip every single minute. We joined as strangers, and by the end we were all part of the Gokarna Diaries family. Sincere thanks to Gautami for making our hearts full with memories of this beautiful place.

Sruti NarayanGroup trip

One of the most memorable trips with Gokarna Diaries. It was my first camping trek and I felt quite safe, especially as a girl. Budget-friendly, and they covered every place and activity in the itinerary. Thanks to the organizers.

Shravya S ShekarFirst camping trek

Some beautiful moments with all the strangers — fully enjoyed the trip. The trek lead is a wonderful person you can have so much fun with. Best place to hang out with friends and family, and spend some peaceful time.

Pauras SwainBeach trek

My first solo trip with a group like this, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The itinerary is good and Gokarna is a beautiful place — very offbeat and enjoyable. Loved the experience.

Divya SharmaSolo traveller

Great experience! The team is very good at engaging with travellers and has a really friendly attitude. The trekking trail is one you shouldn't miss!

Shubham KatariaBeach trek

A lifetime memorable experience of 3 days! Travelled across various places without any hassle. Gautami as the trip lead was hands-on, prompt and exceptional. Loved staying beside the beach. Highly recommend Gokarna Diaries.

Soni Jain3-day trip

Went to Gokarna with Gokarna Diaries after checking out other backpacking tour guides — the team is chilled and enjoyable. Loved the private beach day with fun games, good stay and food, then water sports and the Honnavar mangroves. A great experience, do give it a try.
