DOTC Kenya

DOTC planned the Kenya trip perfectly. The team they partnered with locally was also great and had the sweetest guides who were also extremely knowledgeable. The group was also really chill and our DOTC Host Anaya was super sweet and kept us informed throughout. This is a great way to meet more Desi people, travel and have amazing experiences. 100000% recommend.

10/10 experience!

Japan with DOTC was honestly one of the best travel experiences. Everything felt so well curated and immersive, it never felt touristy or rushed. I met the most amazing people and had so much fun. I’d do it all over again in a heartbeat.

Was nice but I would not do it again

Too many people in the same group to manage, especially for a country like Morocco and such a packed itinerary. Also felt pressured to be part of DOTC's social media posts. I really did not like how much I was featured on the Dose of Travel social media. I wished I could have explicitly denied being part of their social media from the beginning.

Thanks for your feedback! Morocco was one of our more logistically dynamic trips, and with a full itinerary and a larger group, we understand how that can feel overwhelming for some travelers. Our goal is always to balance cultural immersion with community connection, since we're a travel community after all but we know pacing and group size preferences can vary from person to person.

Regarding social media, we’re a community-driven travel brand and capturing moments is a big part of how we share experiences. That said, your comfort always comes first. While filming is included in our terms, anyone can absolutely opt out at any time, and we’re always happy to remove content if requested. We would've loved if you communicated that with us or simply asked us!

We’re grateful you joined us in Morocco and appreciate your honesty. Feedback is always helpful!

Cheers,
Nabila

Greatest experience of my life.

This was the greatest experience of my life. I know I sound a bit dramatic. I was super scared to go on a group trip with strangers because I have severe anxiety, but I not only had fun, I made friends. On top of that, the experiences were top notch, especially the camel ride and dune buggying in the desert. Our guide, Ali, was also great. I can't wait to go on my second DOTC trip.

The trip was amazing and I enjoyed every second of it. I liked the fact that I could incorporate my own plans and everyone in the group would come with instead of going alone.

Highly recommend DOTC trips!

Both DOTC trips I’ve been on to Ghana + Barbados have been a blast!! Amazing to meet like-minded South Asians from around the world, all looking to build new connections and memorable experiences together. I will always recommend these trips to anyone looking for a stress-free group trip!

Japan

I just returned from the Japan trip and genuinely cannot say enough good things about the experience.

From start to finish, everything felt intentional, organized, and thoughtfully curated. The itinerary had the perfect balance of structure and flexibility. We experienced incredible cultural sites, beautiful scenery, amazing food, and still had enough time to explore independently without feeling rushed.

One of the biggest highlights for me was the accommodations. Every single hotel was super clean, comfortable, and well-located. Housing can make or break a group trip, and they absolutely nailed it. I never once felt like we were cutting corners on where we stayed. That level of quality made the experience feel elevated.

The group dynamic was also incredible. Everyone was genuinely kind and welcoming. It didn’t feel like a random collection of strangers — it felt cohesive and positive, which made the trip even more enjoyable.

Logistics were smooth, communication was clear, and everything felt handled. As someone who appreciates organization and efficiency, I really noticed and valued that.

Japan is already an amazing destination, but the way this trip was designed made it even better. I would absolutely travel with them again and can’t wait to join another trip in the future.

Highly recommend.

Desi Island - Bali 2025

My first trip with DOTC was in September, on their Desi Love Island themed getaway. As someone new to solo travel, and with Bali being my very first solo long-haul trip, I was naturally quite nervous at first.

However, DOTC was fantastic at settling those nerves, and the moment I arrived in Bali, I felt at home.

It’s the small details that make all the difference. From the branded vans that took us to and from each destination, to the welcome goodie bags inclusive of a branded leaflet outlining our agenda for the week.

DOTC truly went above and beyond. They curated an experience that felt as polished as a well established travel company, but with the personal touch of a startup.

If you’re new to solo travel and want to step outside your comfort zone in a safe, supportive environment I'd definitely recommend DOTC as an entry point

We were so happy to welcome our bombshell onto the island! We were so excited the moment you sent in your pics to be featured.

We're really glad we could be apart of your first solo trip ever and your first time in Bali. We hope to see you on another trip sometime soon!

My first trip with DOTC was in July 2023 in Bali, Indonesia. I loved the experience. The villa was nice and we did different activities like coffee tasting, kayak, dinners at the beach, etc. It was diverse and well organised.

Nabila is a great host and a genuine person, she is easy-going, fun and has positive energy. I would definitely recommend DOTC! :)

Went to Bali with DOT and had an incredible time! All the activities were so fun, the vibes were elite, the company was great, and all of our needs were taken care of. Good balance between activities and down time. Such a unique experience and I highly recommend. Where else are you going to find South Asian tailored trips like this???

Excellent planning and incredible Vibes !

The Desi Island trip in its first season, was well planned at every stage and the thoughtful tasks and branding added to the value.

Led by the unique marketing content and enthusiasm generated by Nabila, the vibes of the group and connections with new people was amazing.

THE BEST OF THE BEST 💯

DOTC gets an A++++++ from me! It was my first time ever going to Africa and Kenya and I’m definitely glad I went with them! The itinerary was on point and we got to experience a lot of amazing things without it being overwhelming.

Anaya was such a great DOTC host, they literally couldn’t have picked anyone better! She was the youngest person on our trip, yet so fun, outgoing, warm and welcoming, responsible, and just overall a great vibe!

Our local guides Martin and Richard were amazing! Truly some of the sweetest people. They took such great care of us and made the trip extra special and fun!

All the places we stayed at were great and the people who hosted us were so hospitable and kind 🤎

The people, the food, the activities, the gorgeous wild animals, the fresh tea, the farewell cave restaurant dinner, the resort, the sunset canoe ride, the music, and so on…it was all spectacular! ✨✨✨

This was my first time solo traveling outside the U.S. and doing it full on with a group and travel company. It was definitely one of the most memorable trips I’ve been on! 10/10 recommend and I’m totally going on another trip them!

A really special way to travel and meet other South Asian people. The trip was organized enough and the mix of people that attended were really great. There were some unique and adventurous experiences that were part of the itinerary and would love to get more cultural exposure as part of it as well.

Girls Only Morocco Trip

So I went to the girls only Morocco trip. I would absolutely NOT recommend it. It was one of the worst decisions.

1) Itinerary- Lack of accountability by Dose of Travel. So DTC booked 27 girls for this trip, which absolutely did not make any sense for the itinerary that was created. Due to the high volume of people, there were nice hotels (Riads) that the travel group could not book. Instead of 4-5 starts hotels, we had to stay at 2-3 stars hotels. Due to the large group, a lot of the activities were canceled, for which we paid for. A lot of the activities were also pushed which further delayed subsequent events. As a result we were not able to see some of the cities, arriving late at night and leaving early morning. So essentially I paid to spend the day in the bus. It was basically a bus vacation. Dose of Travel should have reduced the number of people or have a more slow paced itinerary or have multiple smaller groups with different tour guides. The reason behind having such a large group is essentially for profit.

Whenever activities were canceled or we arrived late, the tour guide kept blaming us even though everyone was ready and prepared at the indicated time and location.

The large group also made it difficult logistics wise, in terms of transportation. A lot of people lost their baggages or had issues with their baggage because it was difficult for the tour guide to manage so many passengers and variables.

2) Dose of Travel Host. The host was essentially a waste of space. She did not know anything about the itinerary or date/timelines. Whenever we asked her a question she always had to refer back to the tour guide. She only wanted to hang out with her friends. But then in that case she should not have taken the responsibility of being the DTC host.

3) Hammam: Even though this was a girls only trip, they sent us to Hammam where there were male workers and male customers. The male worker peeked into the room while we were having a massage. This was absolutely unacceptable and highly uncomfortable. Either the travel group or DTC should have ensured that they sent us to a women only hamma.

4) High cost. For dinner and lunches the tour guide brought us to restaurants that were super expensive and not good at all. Considering that 90% of the meals were not covered, this became extremely expensive. It was also expected to tip at every restaurant, porters, hotels, and transporters, which we were not madd aware beforehand. This added to the already high costs of this trip.

5) Lack of Communication. We had to go and ask a lot of the essential information (departure times, next activity timeline, hotel name and so on). This was not provided by the tour guide or useless Dose of Travel host. A lot of the time we had very limited time to get ready in order to meet the timelines

By the end of the trip, every single girl felt disappointed by the trip. We all had expected much more. This could have an enjoyable experience if only Dose of Travel had kept smaller groups and a better itinerary suited to actually explore Moroccan culture.

Overall, I essentially paid over 3k to sit in a bus. Out of 8 days, there was only 1 day where we actually did any activities (that were not already free) and actually enjoyed. I would NOT advise anyone to travel ever again with Dose Of Travel. It was complete waste of money.

Hi Soniya,

Reading your review was very hard for us. We’re truly sorry that your first DOTC Morocco experience felt this way. We put a lot of care into curating our trips, so it’s heartbreaking to know you left feeling disappointed rather than inspired.

We’re grateful you still took the time to write such a detailed account. Feedback like this helps us see clearly where things broke down. Safety and comfort are non-negotiable for us.

This Morocco itinerary has been run four times before, including with large groups, and up until now it has received very positive reviews. Your experience makes it clear we need to take a hard look at this departure. We’re reviewing the pacing, accommodations, and communication with our local partners to see where things went wrong and how we can prevent a repeat. The itinerary is designed as a fast-moving trip to cover a lot of the country and before booking we list the daily schedule, inclusions and tipping guidance so guests can plan accordingly, but your comments show we need to communicate that style even more clearly and manage group size better.

The local guide’s role on DOTC trips is to run the logistics and keep travelers safe, while our DOTC host is there to help with community and connection. Our hosts aren’t licensed guides and don’t lead tours. We clearly need to do more to set that expectation and to make sure our hosts are adding value on the ground.

We’re deeply sorry this was your experience and will be reaching out privately as well. Thank you again for being so candid. Your honesty will help us make the changes needed so future DOTC travelerrs get the trip they’re promised.

Best,
Team DOTC
