Testimonals
‘It has been one of the most amazing experiences I've had. I came to love India very much. Please thank Pablo, Sandeep, Vishnu, Krishna and all the people that welcomed me like if they have known me forever.’
Mariangela Lanza, Perth Western Australia
’Katrina, can’t thank you enough for the Varanasi experience. As you know it was my first trip to India so I was a bit apprehensive, but you made everything easy and fun. It was lovely to explore Varanasi, with all its noise, colour and activity, and then be able to retreat to the peace and quiet of the ashram. A perfect balance!’
Leah Kennedy, Orange, New South Wales, Australia
‘Without a shadow of doubt - Morocco was the most exciting and adventurous holiday I have ever had and pitched perfectly for women our age. I smile whenever I think about it.’
Susan L'Herpiniere, Perth Western Australia
‘I never imagined I would be walking through the tiny alleyways of Marrakesh nor hearing the dawn call to payer in the shadows of the blue city with the confidence and ease your trip provided. I can’t thank you enough Katrina for your big hearted adventure. I will definitely be back for more and give you five stars !’
Tam Grant, Perth Western Australia
‘My first visit to India was a lot of hard work to get to the different cities and their highlights. But your tour of Varanasi was 100% cultural immersion without the heavy lifting ..... a beautiful bunch of people around you to help deliver a safe experience, wonderful participants and a great yoga teacher.’
Amy Wells, Melbourne Australia
‘The fantastic Classical music Concert you arranged for us all K was very special - they were a hugely talented group of Indian musicians and the CD I bought is just so good! So a big Thank You for this. I never imagined myself being drawn into their dancing - then leaping about joyfully, holding hands with the others - in or out of tune with the gorgeous music!’
Zenobia Pavri, Perth Western Australia
‘I traveled with Big Sista to Morocco in 2015. Katrina, aka Big Sista is a woman who has clearly done a lot of miles. The trip was the best of being independent, and traveling in a small organized group. Just what I wanted, Big Sista did all the ground work for me and I just kicked back and had a great time meeting women from all over - in Morocco!! I recommend Big Sista Adventures to all woman and in particular to women over fifty.’
Freda Botica, Western Australia
‘Wow ! We traveled overland to a small village in the India Himalayas with Big Sista. Katrina has friends in this village and seemed really at home, she knew everyone and they all knew her. I would never have had such an amazing experience on my own, this was a trip I shall never forget. It was so nice to travel with a group of women my age. Katrina speaks some Hindi and that made a big difference in ease of getting around. All I had to do was follow along and I was guided into another world. Thanks Katrina!
Glenda Borgus, Western Australia
‘Thank you again for such a wonderful experience. I would like to book in for India 2021. With love and thanks.’
