Founded in 2008, Monu Tours is a Varanasi-based travel company built on nearly three decades of real experience.
Our founder, Mr. Shwetank — known to travelers simply as Monu — has been immersed in India’s tourism and music industries since 1997, long before the company itself began. That deep, on-the-ground experience shaped a company built on genuine local connections rather than generic itineraries.
Today, Monu Tours works with a trusted network of tour operators and local guides across India, Nepal, Bhutan, and Southeast Asia, crafting personal, memorable journeys for travelers exploring this part of the world.
Honesty and hard work are our main motto. We work day and night to provide a lifelong experience, leaving deep memories of India and Southeast Asia. At Monu Tours, the owner Monu himself is always involved with our guests, making sure every single person gets the most out of their spiritual journey to India.
Monu knows better than most what international travelers love — because he’s been working in this industry since before the internet existed in India, when travelers carried nothing but one book: the Lonely Planet. He understands how important women’s safety, honesty, and punctuality are in the travel industry. That’s why he also involves his family in the business, especially his wife Shobha and daughter Adwita.
Book your tour with Monu Tours, and you’ll truly enjoy the ambience of India.
