Our story

It started with a mountaineer

There was a guy called Shashi, who had just completed his PhD in Philosophy and had spent years mountaineering in the Himalayas. He loved planning trips for his friends, and nothing made him happier than hearing them say, “The place was awesome!”

So he asked himself: why not start a travel company, and help many more people create memories like these?

Holiday Mantra is born

And so, in 2003, Holiday Mantra was born. From the very beginning, we wanted to be different. Shashi suggested something unique — hidden homestays in the remotest corners of India. It struck a chord with travellers, and Holiday Mantra became known as the best homestay provider.

As time progressed

Holiday Mantra began crafting international holidays along with beautiful domestic destinations. From mountains to beaches, heritage to vibrant cities — we started designing journeys across India and around the world.

We don’t just sell. We experience.

Shashi and his team personally travelled to countless destinations, domestic and international, to understand what our guests would experience. We built strong relationships with the best DMCs and service partners in the industry to bring you nothing but the best.

Different locations, same mantra

Today Holiday Mantra is a team of passionate people, with an office in Bengaluru, India and another in Bali, Indonesia — creating unforgettable holidays for every traveller.

Till this day

We strive to make each holiday as memorable as possible. Because for us, it’s not just about destinations — it’s about moments that stay with you forever.

Your dream. Our planning. Memories for a lifetime.
