Dear all,
Greetings

It gives me immense pleasure to announce the upcoming accessible and inclusive group tours of Planet Abled for the year 2025. It would be wonderful if you could share this information in your network so that more and more people with disabilities have the opportunity to travel and explore this beautiful planet.

We have tried our best to cover as much ground as possible, and we are continuously adding more destinations.

Tiger Safari in Ranthambore - 10th May to 12th May 2025
Bali - 22nd June to 28th June 2025
South Africa Option A, Wildlife and Culture - 19th July to 27th July 2025
South Africa Option B, Wildlife - 3rd August to 10th August 2025
Ecuador and Galapagos Islands - 15th September to 30th September 2025
Japan - 17th October to 28th October 2025
Rafting in Rishikesh - Early November, dates out soon
Kerala - November 2025, dates out soon
Rajasthan - December 2025, dates out soon

Travelling the world is now simple. We have kept the group size small because we want everyone to enjoy fully, but that also means we have limited seats for each tour.

We warmly invite you to bring along your family and friends and help us spread the word about this inclusive adventure. Anyone with or without disabilities can join, ensuring that all can experience the beauty and wonder of this planet together.

Whichever destination you choose, just drop us an email at [email protected] with your choice, and we will send you the detailed travel plans and cost of the trip. You can block your seat by paying just 25%, and the rest can be paid later.

If travelling in a group is not your preference and you want to explore a destination of your choice on your preferred dates, feel free to reach out to us. Whether it's Thailand, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, China, Nepal, or anywhere in Europe, we can help plan your trip in addition to the group tour destinations.

Feel free to reach out to us if you have any more questions. Use promo code RADIO UDAAN for a special discount.

Best regards

We welcome this step towards accountability and respect. 🙌

The Hon'ble Supreme Court has taken cognizance of a plea regarding remarks made by stand-up comedian Samay Raina that allegedly ridiculed the disability community.

At Radio Udaan, we believe that humour should never come at the cost of human dignity. Every voice matters — and so does every feeling. This is not about silencing creativity, but about shaping a world where inclusion, empathy, and awareness guide our words and actions.

Let this moment be a step forward in building a more respectful, kind, and truly inclusive India. 🇮🇳

The Supreme Court is set to examine a plea alleging that Samay Raina, host of "India's Got Latent," ridiculed disabled individuals. The court has asked the NGO Cure SMA Foundation of India to file a proper petition regarding the matter.
