Group trips with strangers, done safely
Small, verified crews that agree on the plan before anyone books.
Updated 6 November 2026
Is travelling with strangers a good idea?
It can be one of the best ways to travel, if the strangers are verified, the group is small, and everyone wants the same kind of trip. Problems usually come from the opposite: unverified people, unclear intent, and one-on-one trips with someone you've only chatted with.
How Vamigo makes it safer
- Everyone verifies with Aadhaar and a live selfie before anyone can see them.
- Crews are small and new members start in groups of 4 or more.
- Everyone in a crew picked the same intent.
- A video huddle happens before anyone books.
- Live location, check-ins and SOS run for the whole trip.
Group trips with strangers vs. organised group tours
Organised tours put you on a fixed departure with up to 20 or 30 people. Vamigo crews are 3 to 5, you see who's going before you join, and the plan is decided together. If you prefer a fully run trip, you can also join verified organisers' trips inside Vamigo.
Who creates the crews?
Three kinds of crews: Vamigo departures at verified stays, organised trips from verified organisers, and crews hosted by travellers who have completed at least one trip. New members can join but not host.
What if I request several crews?
You can hold up to 3 requests, but only one confirmed trip per date range. When you lock a seat, your other requests for those dates are withdrawn automatically.
What happens if a crew does not fill up?
Vamigo offers to merge it with a similar crew going to the same place that week, moves you to a Vamigo departure, or refunds your full deposit.
Can I bring a friend?
Yes, up to 2 friends per crew. They verify like everyone else, and the rest of the seats go to matched travellers.
