Alan and David, an Australian couple, are excited to return to India for a third time after experiencing its vibrant culture. They have visited popular destinations like Delhi, Agra, Jaipur, Mumbai, and Hampi, expressing a strong desire to explore Kerala and Kashmir next. Their positive experiences reflect a growing trend where the LGBTQ+ community feels welcomed in India. The rise in LGBTQ+ tourism has led to new businesses catering to this market, highlighting India as an emerging destination with inclusive travel options that foster community spirit and respect.
"We have seen a rising number of LGBTQ+ travelers choosing our hostels as their base to explore the diverse and vibrant spirit of India. They come not only for the sights but to feel seen, respected, and part of a larger, welcoming community."
"The idea is to visit Kerala, Kashmir, and Delhi soon it has been on our bucket list," Maurice told DW.
"We've not only hosted but also employed members from the LGBTQ+ community who have added immense contribution towards our organization's growth. In our spaces, everyone is free to just be."
