2023 Summer Bus Tour - Interest Form


This form is intended for ISKCON youth ages 18-29 interested in coming on the upcoming ISKCON North America Bus Tour. The goal of the tour is to provide transformational experiences through immersion in Krishna conscious activities with likeminded devotee youth, while having a grand adventure.

Brief tour outline:
Length: 6 Weeks (Friday, June 30th - Sunday, August 13th, 2023)
Countries: 3 (United States, Canada, Mexico)
Ratha-yatras: Montreal, Toronto, Calgary, Los Angeles
Price: $1,800 for the whole tour, $900 for the half tour option
Departure/Arrival Location: Alachua, Florida, USA  (or Calgary for the half tour option)

During our six weeks on the road we will visit temples across the USA and Canada and engage in hands-on service, go on Harinamas and participate in Ratha-yatra festivals. Along the way we will visit scenic places in nature, national parks, go hiking, camping, swimming. The tour costs USD $1800 per person, or $900 for the half tour (either the first half, June 30-July 23, with Calgary Ratha-yatra being the halfway point, or the second half, July 23-Aug 13). 

On the tour you'll be expected to live the lifestyle of a Bhakti Yogi, following the four regulative principles of no illicit sex (including no flirting), no intoxication, no meat eating, and no gambling. You'll be expected to actively participate in the spiritual activities on the tour. 

Interest form submissions are pre-screened. If you appear to be a good fit for the tour, the organizing team will reach out to you with an application form.
