A number of former pilgrims and journlists have written articles on their journeys with Buddhapath.
Below are some of them:

 

Field From Author Perry Garfinkel: An article in National Geographic

 I never join tour groups, but "In the Footsteps of the Buddha" turned out to be the best introduction to the Buddha's life, to India's sacred Buddhist pilgrimage sites, and to group leader Shantum Seth.
