25 Years of Extraordinary Journeys, Made Possible by You. See what we are upto

Silver milestone
Golden memories
Timeless journeys

How do you say thank you for 25 years of trust? Turns out, it takes an entire year…

Next December marks 25 years of Panache World. That’s 25 years of handcrafting luxury travel!
We launched in 2001. Yes, right after 9/11. A small team with big dreams. We’ve weathered some ugly storms and also raised champagne glasses at moments that made it all worthwhile. And through everything, we held firm to one belief: ‘gratitude’ isn’t a buzzword but the reason we have come so far.
The conviction of our partners, team members, and industry has earned us something precious. Your trust.
So this special campaign, Panache@25, belongs to you. To every traveller who believes in us. To everyone in the industry who has worked with us!
Thank you for being part of our story.
Ready to keep going? The best journeys are just ahead…

25 years, 25 Signature Trips!

Welcome to the Signature Trips, a Silver Jubilee exclusive.
Signature Trips is our ‘thank-you’, designed as a collection that brings together expert-led journeys from India and across the globe. Of course, it is shaped with the ‘handcrafted’ magic that has come to define Panache World.
Each Signature Trip is designed to go deeper: Sufi celebrations and wild safaris in Rajasthan, heritage flavours across royal routes, immersive photography experiences in Central India… alongside global journeys built with the same care.
The Silver Jubilee marks the milestone; the Signature Trips carry the spirit forward.
We invite you on more journeys, more discovery, and more ways to experience the world with purpose.
