XLRI Leadership Expedition 2007

Bike Expedition from Mumbai to Kanniyakumari

Flag-Off: Gateway of India, Mumbai on 14th March

Expedition Closes: Kanniyakumari, on March 26th

Contingent Size: 16 students of graduating batch of the two year PG program

The Expedition will be accompanied by Mr. Dilip Bam, an XL alumnus of 1973 batch. Mr. Bam, an avid biker himself, has undertaken various road trips, including Kashmir-Kanyakumari and across the Sahara desert.

Theme: Incredible, yet unseen, India!

The ‘Mumbai to Kanniyakumari’ region is home to some of the best beaches, hills, and historical sites in India. It thus offers a total package to satiate the appetite of tourists with various inclinations. However, this immense potential has not been tapped so far with only some sections of Maharashtra, Karnataka, Goa, Kerala being on the radar of the traveler. There is thus an immense opportunity for tourism lying dormant in the region.

Deliverables:
  • Study, explore and document the economic potential of the Western Coastal region with specific focus on Tourism.
  • Prepare a report and submit the same to Union Tourism Ministry
