Safety always comes first at GIO and we continue to have an excellent safety record. Our focus is on safety, followed by learning and fun. While we are proud of our record, we never let ourselves get complacent. As people who enjoy the great bounty that nature has bestowed upon us, team GIO takes its individual and collective responsibility very seriously. Our first commitment is to the physical, psychological, and emotional safety of every participant, and staff member, and ourselves. We leave no stone unturned to provide a safe experience and create an environment where people feel free to stretch their limits. Team GIO The lynchpin of any safety program is the people who guide the program. All the GIO team members guiding the program are certified professionals from Institutions like Nehru Institute of Mountaineering and have the best credentials in their field. They are individuals of the highest caliber who have proven themselves time and again.


We run a low 1:6 Staff to participant ratio. This means that participants always have access to and supervision by an adult leader. It also ensures individualized attention for the participants. Further, at every point at least 2 members from Team GIO go through all the safety aspects of the activities to ensure foolproof safety for all participants. All the Guides/instructors at team GIO are trained in First aid and CPR to address any eventuality. Every member of Team GIO carries basic safety kits & First aid boxes at all times. This includes all our camps & off site locations. While Trekking or Alpine Camping, the expedition leaders always carry a powerful, two-way radio with which emergency procedures may be initiated.
