A sabbatical to Bali. A mountain summit. A decision that changed everything.
Fitrip was born from a simple belief: nature has the power to heal, challenge, humble, and transform us. Founded by Aslam TP in 2018, Fitrip is the result of a lifelong passion for fitness, adventure, community, and meaningful travel. Based in Ubud, Bali and rated 5.0 on TripAdvisor, we craft journeys finely tuned to each traveller, blending activity and wellness to invigorate the soul.
Growing up in Kerala, India, Aslam was heavily influenced by his father, who was deeply involved in sports and fitness. He captained his school cricket team, represented his district in competitive cricket, and later captained his local sports club. Fitness remained constant even while working with Dell Technologies, supporting Dell Australia.
But a sabbatical to Bali changed everything. Living closer to nature (hiking mountains, swimming in the ocean, exploring waterfalls) brought a profound realisation: nature was helping him find balance, clarity, and happiness in a way modern life never could. In 2018, he dedicated himself to sharing these benefits with others and founded Fitrip.
"When I was active, that's when I felt most alive, and I realised how little this approach existed in travel. So we offer something a little different."
Aslam TP, Founder
Small by design. Personal by nature.
To inspire a global community of conscious travellers who reconnect with nature, embrace active living, celebrate cultural diversity, and create positive impact wherever they travel. We envision a world where travel becomes a pathway to personal growth, deeper human connection, environmental awareness, and community wellbeing.
At Fitrip, our mission is to create meaningful active travel experiences that reconnect people with nature, culture, community, and themselves.
We believe nature has all the answers. It challenges us, heals us, humbles us, and reminds us of what truly matters.
Alongside Fitrip, Aslam founded Cause is Life, a community initiative focused on giving back to the places and people that make our journeys possible.
Cycled around Bali coast-to-coast in 20 hours during COVID-19, funding 45 children's education through the Bali Children's Foundation.
Walked across Kerala over 21 days during the second COVID wave, raising funds for underprivileged children in Kasaragod.
Education funded and counting. Every Fitrip journey contributes to Cause is Life.
★★★★★ 5.0 on TripAdvisor (Ubud, Bali)
"Best guide in Bali. His superpower is getting to know you, then making a custom itinerary that fits exactly what you're looking for. Nothing cookie-cutter about it."
"The sunrise from the top of Mount Batur was absolutely worth the early wake-up. It felt less like a booked tour and more like hiking with old friends. Warm, authentic, completely unforgettable."
"From my 78-year-old mom who went paragliding for the first time to my 8-year-old who learned to paddleboard: surreal locations tailored to our needs, full of laughter and motivation."
Add any of these to your Fitrip experience, all arranged directly through us.
