Brings back memories but a overly talkative host

Love listening to the guests and their stories about their travels. Gives a perspective of how vast India is and how diverse various parts of the country is. However the host either repeating what the guests say and read off Wikipedia and loves the sound of his voice.

Informative

I have been listening to “The Musafir stories” for about a year now and really enjoy them! It transports me to India and these interesting and fun places that I would love to visit one day. The details about how to get there, places to stay, what to do there and of course the the local cuisine all make it so interesting! The tips from these interviews are valuable!
Thank you!!

Insightful

Just heard two episodes so far (88, 100) but already liked it to give them a review. Soothing voices of Saif and Faiza and good discussions/questions with experts. Liked that its not just about travel itineraries but also about the history of the different places.
