ABOUT US

In 2012, Guinness World Record Holders Sanjay Madan and Tushar Agarwal established Adventures Overland.

Tushar Agarwal and Sanjay Madan, both Fellows of the Royal Geographical Society in London, have 15+ Limca Records to their names. Their expedition The Great Indian World Trip, a journey spanning 90,000 kilometres across 6 continents which lasted for 15 months was adapted into a documentary that aired on the Discovery Channel. Tushar & Sanjay represented India at the 2nd ASEAN-India Car Rally, and the duo have also authored two books: The Great Indian World Trip & Road Affair.

Adventures Overland, pioneers in organising self-drive road trips and cross-border drives across 6 continents has redefined experiential travel, offering both outbound and inbound expeditions—from luxury road trips across continents to curated journeys showcasing the best of India to global travellers.

Their iconic Road to London expedition, a first-of-its-kind road trip, all the way from India to the UK by road, has completed 7 seasons. They also launched Bus to London—a 70-day journey across 18 countries, making headlines as one of the most ambitious road trips ever created. Most recently, they introduced Around the World in 80 Days, a curated expedition covering 6 continents, designed as a once-in-a-lifetime World Trip.

Their excellence has been recognised with numerous accolades, including 5 consecutive wins as India’s Leading Tour Operator at the World Travel Awards (2020–2025), the Best Niche Tour Operator at the SATTE Awards (2020 & 2024), and honours from the Government of UAE at the Dubai Travellers Festival.
