Owned by Ravi Kumar and jointly run by Salim Javed, Periplus is one India’s few bespoke and truly specialist DMCs. Long term friends of Kate’s, having worked with Ravi and Salim during her time at Audley, Holiday Architects and Scott Dunn, this relationship is special and founded on a deep level of trust and admiration. A destination as complex as India is no walk in the park and having a duo that is deeply knowledgeable and incredibly passionate, without inflated costs, is a true rarity here.
Periplus have a remarkable collection of immersive experiences, but can also work with a blank piece of paper, designing trips and experiences from scratch for their clients. They listen, they consider and they gently push their clients to explore, uncover and encounter new things, matching them with artists, experts, writers and more. Kate knows how good they are and their value, having tendered business to India in previous roles many times. What’s more, they and their wider team of twenty, are just lovely people and this is what Kapara is about - fantastic product, consciously run, by really warm and wonderful people.
