The Visionary Behind India Personal Tours – Meet Mahendra Singh (Manu), Your Host to Real India
Every great travel company has a passionate traveler behind it. For India Personal Tours, that heart is Mahendra Singh, affectionately known as Manu. A licensed all-India guide, seasoned explorer, and the Managing Director of Operations & Sales, Mahendra is not only a tourism professional—he’s a lifelong student of culture, history, and human connection.
With 22+ years of hands-on experience in India’s travel industry, a Bachelor’s degree in History and Political Science, and a Master’s in Tourism Administration from Jodhpur University, Mahendra’s foundation is as strong as his dedication.
He formed India Personal Tours with one clear mission: to offer international travelers a real, immersive, and luxurious experience of India, without compromises.
A Lifelong Love for Travel
Mahendra’s passion for travel isn’t limited to organizing tours — he lives the journey himself. Every year, he takes at least one or two international trips to explore new countries, experience cultures firsthand, and gather fresh perspectives. Whether it’s the serene backwaters of Kerala or the romantic streets of Paris, Mahendra believes in learning from travel to serve travelers better.
This wanderlust gives him a unique understanding of what international guests expect when they come to India. His personal experiences help shape tours that feel thoughtful, comfortable, and unforgettable.
Motivating His Team to Travel Too
Manu believes travel builds empathy, creativity, and service excellence. That’s why he encourages his own team — guides, drivers, and office staff — to travel and see more of the world, or even explore hidden corners of India. This culture of exploration keeps the entire team inspired and informed, leading to richer travel experiences for guests.
He often sponsors internal trips, training sessions in different destinations, and learning exchanges that improve storytelling, navigation skills, and guest handling.
Personally Tracking Every Guest Journey
Despite being in a leadership position, Mahendra is deeply involved in daily operations. He personally tracks every guest’s movement — from airport pickup to hotel check-ins and sightseeing progress. His goal? Ensure zero complaints.
If a guest feels slightly unwell, faces a delay, or needs a recommendation, Manu is just a WhatsApp away. This commitment to personal oversight sets India Personal Tours apart in a crowded industry.
Only Luxury – Because Quality Can’t Be Compromised
Early in his journey, Mahendra learned that budget travel often leads to problems — mismanaged hotels, poor hygiene, and safety concerns. That’s why India Personal Tours focuses exclusively on luxury and premium travel.
They collaborate only with handpicked hotels — properties that Manu has personally visited, inspected, and approved. From the majestic palaces of Rajasthan to serene heritage retreats in South India, these stays reflect India's hospitality at its finest.
Trusted Globally, Loved Locally
Over the years, India Personal Tours has served thousands of guests from the USA, Germany, France, Spain, and other parts of the world. The company’s multilingual support, luxury fleet, elite hotel partnerships, and transparent communication have earned glowing reviews across platforms.
Many guests become repeat clients — returning to explore new regions of India or recommending India Personal Tours to friends and family.
