Welcome to another edition 'Creatively Yours'

We've started a new year with 2024. For some reason, it really feels like the last year just whizzed by a lot faster. So before we lose track of time again, let’s all take every opportunity we get to make this new year meaningful, enriching and rewarding in whichever way we want. For ourselves, and for our loved ones.

As a destination management team built on legacy and history, we are eternally grateful to our friends and partners across the world for making us what we are. We express gratitude to our industry colleagues, our friendly competitors, and our steadfast business providers. And most importantly, to our team members and their families for standing by us in the year gone by.

2024 heralds our 47th year of being amongst South Asia’s most respected and globally awarded travel companies. We have held strong, true to our vision of showcasing the best our region has to offer.

We are thankful that our family of brands endured the year gone by and stands strong & prepared to start 2024 afresh. We have plans in place, team members primed up. We are truly blessed with a team that has worked tirelessly in this testing time.

We had a positive past year. We did exceed what we did in 2022 and are on track to meet our set goals. We implemented many new ideas and programs across our region. As owners, we fundamentally changed the way we run our business at the core. We moved away from the traditional focus on top-line to have a sharper focus on profitability, budget control, and better business management practices. This all has paid off. There are still destination-related challenges around us, but we have an incredible team behind us that is driven to succeed. Our people strive every day to deliver an amazing destination experience to our guests. We are not only proud of them, but are also grateful for their support to Ram Kohli’s vision of creating this one-of-a-kind organization.

We are also thankful for the recognitions received, to have been awarded yet again by the highly prestigious World Travel Awards as “India's Leading Luxury Travel Agency 2023" at a glittering award ceremony in September in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. This takes our tally to 27. The World Travel Awards are described by the Wall Street Journal as "the Oscars of the Travel Industry". Last February, we were honoured with our 8th SITE Crystal Award for Exceptional Motivational Travel Programs during the SITE Global Conference in New York. This probably makes us the most globally awarded incentive company in South Asia. The credit for the 88 global and national recognitions we have won so far goes to the men and women in our team who strive every day to deliver an amazing destination experience to our guests. We are not only proud of them but also grateful for their support of Ram Kohli’s vision of creating this one-of-a-kind organization. And a special thank you to our partners across the world whose trust in us makes this possible.

Everyone in the Creative Family of brands is excited & happy, and ready to take on 2024 with gusto. The Creative Group is just not any business. This is a family. A family of the Kohli’s, a family of our team members, a family of our partners across the world. We as a company feel privileged to be in a business where we bring to life the dreams and fantasies of travellers from across the world. We are determined as a family that to work on making the coming year one full of promises of better moments for one and all.
