Phase 1 Is Over. What’s Happening At Alike for the Free Visa Holiday Offer?
We’re not just travel planners. We’re travel companions, every step of the way.
"We don’t just SEND people on trips; we TAKE you on journeys," says Danish, Senior Manager of the Travel Advisor team, and he means it. At Alike, the idea of a holiday isn't stitched from brochures or automated itineraries – it starts with you. Your preferences, your pace, your personality. And now, with our trailblazing Free Visa Holiday offer, we’re tearing down the most significant travel barrier for Indian explorers: the dreaded visa process.
We get it. The visa desk can feel like a mood-killer. But what if we told you the visa’s already sorted? “The only thing standing between you and sunset cocktails in Dubai, a golden hour dhow cruise in Abu Dhabi, or a lazy beachside evening in Bali... is packing your bags. This isn’t a gimmick. This is India’s first visa holiday offer, built for dreamers like you.
So, whether you're a beach-bound soul or a culture-chasing foodie, let us take you backstage into what’s happening at Alike: from the rush of honest reviews and the flurry of bookings, to the hilarious mix-ups and the honest truths we’re proud to clear up. Doing so shows you why thousands are choosing to journey with Alike.
1. Clarifying Misconceptions: Free Visa on 3 Nights or More
Why three nights? Because a proper getaway deserves more than a pit stop. These aren’t in-and-out trips. They’re immersive, slow sips of another culture. Think long dinners, early sunrises, market wanders and spa evenings.
And yes, the visa is genuinely covered in your package. There are no hidden surcharges or surprise embassy fees at checkout – just real value, properly packaged.

Michael: “It was a perfect trip. Thanks to Alike for assisting in my reservations and the trip program, and many thanks to Akansha, who completed all our reservations with the best rate.”
2. We started something no one else dared to: India’s first Free Visa Holiday Offer
The moment this offer went live, something shifted. There was a ripple of curiosity, excitement, and in many cases, straight-up disbelief.
"Wait, is it really free?" "So... you're giving us the visa? Like, included-in-the-trip giving?"
Yes. That’s precisely what we did. And now, we’re seeing first-time international travellers finally stepping out. Experienced explorers are coming back for their second round. Honeymooners, families, and solo wanderers are all finding their way through us.
Alike didn’t just sell holidays. We opened the doors.

Eswara R: “Very well taken care of us, provided nice car and support throughout the journey.. decent staff, well planned and executed.. simple and superb.. thanks Alike Team for the nice approach you follow to engage the client throughout the process. ”
3. People thought we were bluffing. Until the stories started pouring in.
There's nothing more validating than reading honest reviews from real people who just returned from that desert safari or that hidden temple trek in Ubud.
Alike reviews
Like Cynthia, who wrote in, "Had an issue with my Abu Dhabi pass, and Ray sorted it out in no time."
Or Michael, who gushed, "It was a perfect trip. Thanks to Akansha from Alike who helped us book everything at the best rate."
These stories don’t just warm our hearts. They remind us why we do what we do.
4. Not all holidays are created equal, and here’s the cautionary tale
Transparency is our guiding star, and here’s why it matters. A traveller recently came to us, disheartened. They’d booked a ‘free visa’ holiday with another OTA. What did they not realise? The visa was "free" in words alone. They ended up paying nearly double once fees and services were tallied.
It was a moment of regret. But also of learning. Having learnt the value of Alike’s genuine offers, they vowed to choose us as their travel partners.
5. Get more out of every day with FREE eSIMs
No more frantic airport hunts for SIM cards. No more asking strangers for hotspot passwords. Every Alike booking unlocks a free eSIM, giving you instant connectivity when you land. Let technology be your best travel companion. With Alike, every booking unlocks free eSIMs, ensuring seamless connectivity for maps, social sharing, and conversations. Stay in touch. Stay adventurous.
6. Feast your way through travel with Zomato Gold
Culture is often savoured on a plate, and at Alike, we know taste buds tell the best travel stories. Savour the culinary world with a Zomato Gold membership, unlocking exclusive perks at dine-in holidays. From aromatic spices to gastronomic wonders, a world of flavors awaits you.

Arina: “Marlin was very attentive and answered all my questions. Polite and answered my questions promptly! Happy with the service provided by Marlin through WhatsApp.”
7. Why queue when you can just breeze through?
Wave goodbye to long lines and hello to exclusive access with tools like The Official Abu Dhabi Pass and Dubai Tourist Pass, designed to save time and enrich your adventure. It's your holiday – we make it count.
8. Premium Desert Safari Tents: What makes an Alike itinerary feel special
You can do a desert safari.
Or you can do it the Alike way – in a luxury tent under a starlit sky, with curated local experiences, private transfers, and chilled drinks waiting as the sun dips below the dunes. We don’t do things halfway. And that matters.
You can try Arabic food.
Or you can taste it how it’s meant to be – in a hidden courtyard in old Dubai, where the chef’s great-grandmother once made the same recipes. Think slow-cooked lamb mandi, oven-fresh khubz, and tahini that’s been ground fresh that morning. Served with stories, not just spices. That's what we mean by flavour.
Alike isn’t just about checking off things on a list. It’s about doing them right. With depth. With soul. With people who care. That’s the difference between a trip... and a memory built for you with care.

Subham D: “Our recent trip to Bali, organised by the team at Alike was a wonderful experience! A special and heartfelt thank you goes to Souvik, who was fantastic. He effortlessly planned the entire itinerary. The destinations chosen were all very good and offered a great mix of experiences. While the operations team was decent, we particularly appreciated how approachable and responsive they were throughout the journey. It was a well-organised and enjoyable trip, thanks to Souvik's excellent planning and Alike's efforts. We would consider them for future travels!”
10. Your visa has a longer shelf life than you thought
A visa that works on your schedule? Yes, please. Dubai visas offer a 60-day validity with a travel period of 30 days, meaning you can book your trip on the 59th day and still have time to jet off. Alike combines practicality with flexibility, so your spontaneity never misses an adventure.

You pack. We plan. You nap on the flight. We chase down last-minute bookings. You get the sunset. We handle the stress.
That’s what we mean by truly effortless travel.
