KTC in association with Br. Balasaheb Khardekar College, Vengurla organized a seminar on ‘KTC’s Village Development Programme’ on 02 June, 22. The prime motive of the Seminar was to share KTC’s Eco-Tourism Development model and to introduce a 6 Month Internship programme. The Seminar was made possible due to fruitful efforts of Dr. Dhanashri Patil, (Head of Botany Department, BKC College), Prof. Nandgirikar (BKC College) and Mr. Nilesh Chendwankar (President- Maza Vengurla) along with the rest of the team of KTC: Mr. Yaseer Makandar, Mr. Vishal Khajanekar, Mr. Suryakant Golam, Mr. Pranav Bagayatkar. Pratik Gawade (Founder, KTC) led the Seminar and stressed about the importance of skill development in Konkan. The Seminar also saw a guest talk from Mr. Sandeep Rane on preservation of traditional techniques and anthropology in Konkan. The paid internship programme proposed in the seminar will last for a duration of 6 months between Aug-Jan. Prior to that, there will be selection rounds. The selected interns will undergo orientation sessions to familiarize with the workflow and their respective teams. The interns will be felicitated with Skill Certificates mentioning the exact work done during the period. BKC College is also working to get this certificate certified by the Mumbai University. Every Intern will be trained in Operations and ‘Village Development Programme’. Furthermore, interns will be divided into teams based on their interest and grasping power. Following are the major teams to be formed: Operations Client Relations Graphics & Content Design Website Design Marketing Service Design: This team will comprise some members from all teams. It is hoped that this programme achieves all its objectives and becomes a stepping stone to a movement in tourism that is conducive to the ecology and economy in Konkan.

This has been such an epic experience. Thank you for showing us a side ok konkan, we couldn’t even imagine, existed outside a postcard. Every experience was so unique and special.. we are going to remember this forever. Also, with the children and the chaos and the late mornings, you guys always delivered whatever you promised and also more than that. Always smiled and laughed and kept us engaged in experiences. The homestay, the beaches, the tent.. everything was magical to say the least. Thank you again for this. We are coming back soon. ❤️ And thank you for best birthday celebration. The place you found was beyond Amazing and the arrangement was so beautiful. Don’t remember ever having celebrated like this. Love you guys. All the best. You are definitely going places.
Where do I even begin, I visited a part of Konkan a few years back & I was sure that I will come back again & now when I got a chance to visit it again I had a completely different experience from the last time I was here. Man what a memorable time I spent during my stay here from witnessing a local play (Mahashivratri special from night to dawn) to food trails to hidden gems (beaches, a lesser known sea fort & a natural pool). The best part of the tour was definitely our homestay & the warm hospitality we received was a very humbling experience. The last couple of days have been overwhelming. Thank you so much Konkan travel club for hosting us & making us a part of your rich culture & lifestyle. See you guys again very soon 🙂
It was a 4 days tour and we enjoyed it thoroughly..the secret beach, secret island, the homestay, Daji and his family, malvani food everything was fabulous and smoothly planned by KTC . Pratik,Nilesh,Chatur and Yasir were nice friends cum guides. To be honest I am going to bring my mother to enjoy the village life style and malvani food here next time around. Thank you KTC for this memorable trip.
Where do I even start about my trip with Konkan travel club...Me and my husband had the most amazing 2 days exploring offbeat Konkan with them. If it would not have been for Konkan travel club we would have never ever experienced the rural, local authentic konkan side. The experience of staying with locals, eating their local delicacies, experiencing unexplored hidden gems of Konkan is what only Konkan travel club can make you experience. Prateik is a perfect host, very curious informative, knowledgeable and helpful. We were confused of how to, where to start he helped us bring clarity shared us a perfect itinerary as per our tastes and preferences and we were sold. We have made some amazing connections with Aji and Ajoba of the house we stayed at. Highly recommend them. If visiting Konkan then, what are you waiting for just go ahead and contact Konkan travel club.

Thanks amul , mayur , yaseer , viraj for being a good leader ⭐ even i met nilesh sir . He is a gem of a person . I wld sure like to meet u guys again . I wish great succes to KTC .
Not just a trip but a therapy! Didn't know lockdown would hit again and will be all isolated, but my gut feeling said this trip should be a now or never calling. And yes, random plans work and it worked again this time but with Konkan Travel Club. These guys chalked out our plan in a Span of two days and we booked it with them.. it was just 2 of us and all 3 of them pampered us like anything. With zero network, this break was most awaited. Right from Daji kaka's lip smacking food to Onkar, Richa and pratik's hospitality everything was bang on! Secret locations, endless shopping and the overall vibe made me forget lockdown blues. I'm glad I took this trip.... I don't regret being caged now and once the curfew is off I am again going back here..To come back with more stories...Keep it up guys!!! 2
Where to start from... Amazing people amazing places.. Amazing food... And most importantly the treatment they provide ... I booked an private staycation and trip for me and my friend who came from abroad ( the reason behind telling this detail is I wished for everything authentic malvni and konanki experience) .. KTC said you just sit relax and he will smile... They kept their promise.. We started off with amazing waterfalls temple and authentic food a nice cozy stay to relax.. The next day was even beautiful they planned beach stay like literally you just have to look up and there you go sea beach happy place.. At night we stayed by the beach in tent under the sky near water like a dream fairy tail (ps not exaggerating) and the next day we saw a fort blue lagoon beach and yes last day I wished for a surprise party and tadaa... KTC arranged that as well for us in goa... Again cozy stay music cake foood sea.. Again fairy tail... Thank you so much for this amazing experience and wish to come back soon.. 💝

The foundation of KTC is built upon the ideology explained in the below video by Captain Raghu Raman. The principle being- 'Upscaling the unorganized tourism opportunities and building on the local potential by providing the necessary tools and grooming'. We believe there is a lot at stake in our villages that needs to be preserved and highlighted. And our means of doing it will be a pioneer in shaping the socio-economic stature of the region.

Collaboration connects us. There’s no problem so tough that we can’t tackle it together. Working as a team, we harness the wisdom (and energy!) of the crowd.
Passion powers us. We believe the only way to do great work is to love what you do. We’re inspired by the people and places around us. We don’t chase perfection, we chase ‘Our Best’ and fulfillment.
We operate openly and foster transparency. Our team members, clients and communities always know where we stand.
When we give others the tools, skills and opportunities to succeed, they flourish. When we give ourselves the same, we’re unstoppable.
We promote ideas and leadership that can shape the company direction. Act with that purpose, intent and maternal instincts of the owner (and you will see a change in the way you lead).
Our biggest strength lies in our ability to be better than yesterday. Start simple. Test, learn, iterate.
