KeralaVoyages, the complete holiday makers for discerning global travelers to India is on an aggressive expansion mode. The company synonymous with superior professional and personalized travel solutions for high end global tourists to India has launched operations in the UK, Spain and South Africa. The company has opened fully functional offices at each of these destinations to service tourists to India.

Kerala Voyages had established its global presence last year with the launch of “AmazingSouth” the first of its kind tourism product from South India at the World Travel Markets-2007 in London. It is hailed as a daring attempt to address global travelers directly and provide them tailor made solutions to suit their personal preferences and choices. This unique travel product designed and developed after an year long global market research has proved to be tremendous success in its first season of operations itself.

To spearhead the growth process, Kerala Voyages has teamed up with some of the best names in the industry to manage it’s operations in the overseas markets. Company’s overseas operations will be headed by Mr. Jay Kandy, a seasoned travel industry professional with 17 years of hands on experience across Europe and African markets. As the Director-Europe & Africa of Kerala Voyages, Jay will oversee the Company’s current Europe Business as well as network expansion across Europe and Africa. Mr. Jay will be supported by Mr. Peter Tait, Country Director-SA, Kerala Voyages and Ms. Maria Mainz, Country Director-Spain, Kerala Voyages.

“This is the first instance a Kerala based travel company is launching offices and operations in these potentially important markets. With the launch of the offices and teaming up with the industry’s best talents to manage operations, we target bringing in 2000 foreign inbound tourists to Kerala in the next season”, said Mr. George Scaria, Managing Director, Kerala Voyages.

“We are hoping to set new benchmarks in this industry with regard to service standards. The personalized service we have developed offers every traveler an opportunity to customize his holiday based purely on his personal interests. We are here to render that third dimension to the holiday of every traveler visiting India which we call an “experience”. Said Mr. Jay Kandy, Director-Europe & Africa, Kerala Voyages.

CSR Initiative

Along with the global network expansion program, the company is designing a first-of-its-kind corporate social responsibility initiative to promote nature awareness among the next generation. The Company is in the process of designing a unique awareness program using audio visual aids to support this initiative. Renowned Wild Life Consultant Mr. Benny Kurian, one of the best known specialists on the Western Ghats is in charge of developing this CSR program for Kerala Voyages. Kerala Voyages will contribute Rs. 1000 for each of its in bound traveler in the coming years to generate additional resources for this venture.

Outbound Tourism

Leveraged from the global network expansion, Kerala Voyages is all set to launch it’s outbound tourism product very soon, with South Africa as the first destination on offer. Keeping its tradition of tailor-made travel solutions, outbound tourism products also will offer unique personalized experiences for the Indian travelers. Mr. Jay Kandy and Mr. Peter Tait with hands on experience in African tourism markets will design and develop these products which will be on offer for the outbound travels in the coming months.
