Art of Travel - TCI

FROM THE MD's DESK

Hello!

FROM THE CEO DESK

Dear Travel Professional,

We have had a busy past couple of weeks collecting awards, I can’t say I am complaining, weather it is the 24k gold coated Hermes trophy at TTG Asia for the Best Travel Agency India or the 26th National Tourism Award, I am delighted that the Company is being acknowledged and our efforts in the world of travel are being recognised.

The TCI office in Goa has recently shifted to a new prime location in Panjim. The beautiful office sits at the waterfront and offers a stunning view overlooking the famous Mandovi River. It so peaceful to just look out while taking a little break!

The festival of lights which is just around the corner is celebrated with oil lamps, flower garland decorations, candles float in bowls of water outside homes and sweets are shared with friends and family. I would like to wish you and your family a very Happy Diwali.

Regards

Dipak Deva
Managing Director

Here are 4 out of the ordinary experiences that I had the good fortune of trying first-hand on a 2 week tour around Kerala that brings out this essence of the not so quintessential Kerala.
