Mr. Tarun Agarwal is a well-known travel agent in the field of travel business. The founder of Celebrate Vacation founded the agency in 2011. Before stepping into the travel business, Mr. Tarun used to work for a bank whose branch was in Kashipur, Uttarakhand. A lot of queries used to come in for Nainital and Jim Corbett. He spent a large chunk of time booking for the mentioned places. This led to the inspiration to start his travel business. Not only that, Mr. Tarun is also a travel enthusiast, which motivated him to join the travel industry. So he quit his job and embarked on a new journey.
Celebrate Vacations has an abundance of expertise in Uttarakhand, especially in the most revered Char Dham Yatra. Other than Uttar Pradesh in the domestic sector, they are experienced in Kerala, Andaman, Himachal Pradesh, Kashmir, Rajasthan, Gujarat, and Uttar Pradesh. When it comes to international destinations, they cover many stunning places such as Singapore, Dubai, Thailand, Malaysia, the Maldives, Nepal, and Bhutan.
When asked about the courses, Mr. Tarun stated that he faced a lot of challenges during the journey of Celebrate Vacation. During the heart wrenching floods of 2013 in Uttarakhand, many people lost their precious lives. The devastating incident caused lots of landslides and heavy flooding. It was hard for them for Celebrate Vacations, as they were just in their initial phase. Apart from this, it was quite tough for them to find a reliable and trustworthy partner who would perform every task with the same zeal. Not only this, but finding a low-cost product that would help them showcase their business was a difficult task
In this online business, they get cheated by amoral website developers. They faced a huge loss during the process of getting their business completely online. After all these struggles, they had to face the dreadful COVID situation. Even after facing such challenges, he quoted that challenges are a part of life and that they make us stronger.
During the whole COVID ordeal, they got a chance to improve their business by introducing new products and services. This long break gave them insights into what their business was lacking. To take advantage of it, they rectified those mistakes. The overall situation gave them a new opportunity to bounce back stronger.
Even through these tough times, Celebrate Vacations made a huge turnover by crossing Rs 2 crore in 2022. This year, they are expecting more by targeting to achieve triple the amount.
Mr. Tarun is motivated to continue this business as this industry has a lot of hope. Since the Corona situation, the travel industry has flourished. People are spending more time seeking new adventures. GST reforms, ease of doing business initiatives by the government, enhanced transparency, etc. are the leading factors for positive change.
Upon asking about any life rules that the founder of Celebrate Vacations follows, Mr. Tarun proudly stated that Celebrate Vacation is always 100% genuine with their customers. It is their motto to deliver the best product to their customers by providing value for every dollar spent.
Their journey with TraviYo started when Mr. Tarun was searching for a trustworthy portal-related solution. TraviYo's sales team guided him regarding the same. Celebrate Vacation’s product is still under development at TraviYo. Even then, Traviyo has helped them establish confidence that they can become the best in the industry.
