FROM THE MD's DESK
Hello!
Dear Travel Professional,
We are in the midst of festivities here in India, from small local community celebrations to festivals which are centuries old.
On the anvil is the festival of lights, Diwali; which is one of the most popular ones in India; oil lamps, good food, presents and so much more!
India hosted the Kerala Travel Mart in Cochin which sent out a strong positive message to the world about tourism in Kerala after the rains; thank you for stopping by and visiting us during the show. We are sure to see you next at WTM, London.
In this issue read first-hand insights brought to you by our Destination Knowledge Centre Specialists who explored Bujera Fort in Udaipur and the destination of Bundi in South East India.
Lastly, I end my note this time with a noteworthy mention of Gita Gopinath, born and brought up In India, who has now been appointed the New Chief Economist Of International Monetary Fund.
See you soon.
Regards
Dipak Deva
Managing Director

Bujera Fort, Udaipur
Reviewed by Mallyka Singh, Explorer, Destination Knowledge Centre
Bujera Fort, owned by Richard Hanlon and his partner Trish Mc Farlene is located 25 minutes away from the city Centre of Udaipur.
When I reached the property there was a shoot going on with Richard. We exchanged a warm hello and quite unexpectedly the videographer asked me to join in. And there I was, sitting behind Richard on a classic Lambretta scooter. It was such a hilarious and fun introduction to Bujera Fort.
STORIES FROM THE ROAD
Bundi
By Mallyka Singh, Explorer, Destination Knowledge Centre
In the south-eastern part of India’s most popular destination in tourism globally, lies Bundi where I recently spent 2 nights. Located in a narrow valley within the Aravalli Hills, it is like nowhere else in Rajasthan and yet to see the hordes of tourist. The locals of Bundi are its true charm and each one has a story to tell. This is what I realised when I walked around Bundi’s narrow lanes unhurriedly chatting with the locals.
