FROM THE MD's DESK

Hello!

Dear Travel Professional,

It has been a busy start to this week with our Annual Branch Meet which kicked-off on Monday, July 25, 2016. Our colleagues from our branch offices are at the head office for a three day interaction with the teams here. An interesting concept this year – the Meet has been organised like a trade show where each branch has set-up their own booth with an online appointment diary. The office is alive with colour, interesting booth concepts and of course -all our people.

We continue to have a running feed/post on Facebook and Twitter of the Meet. Do follow us for the updates.

See you soon.

Regards

Dipak Deva
Managing Director

STAY AT

The Wilderness Camp at Dera Amer, Kukas Village near Jaipur

Here’s a new ‪BnB from Assam in Northeast India – Puroni Bheti Lodge (no website as yet.) Located in the 116 year old Haroocharai ‪Tea Estate in Jorhat, this 3 room property has started taking in guests from January 2016. Puroni Bheti means old foundation which is a crude literal translation. In its essence in the Assamese language it is a place from where humble beginnings were made by a family. The Lodge stands on what once housed the first office of the 116 year old Haroocharai Tea Estate. Your clients will be hosted by Rajib Barooah and Indrani Barooah, owners of the Haroocharai Tea Estate, who stay in the same compound in a huge colonial Bungalow.

STORIES FROM THE ROAD
