When asked what led them to the idea of #TGTF2018, Sumit Lulla, said, “In India, there is a clear disconnect between the traveller and the destination due to the convoluted flow of information that gets lost amongst different intermediaries. This disconnect affects the perception of any potential traveller in terms of accessibility, desirability and the notability value of a destination. The #TGTF2018 hopes to take the first steps necessary towards commercially bringing about change in how Indians perceive travel.”
Nelson Noronha, said, “The unique participants and businesses represented at the Gypsy Travel Festival 2018 all share the same vision and are top industry experts who are constantly innovating and trying to bring about new change in Indian travel habits. Despite the limitations of the Indian passport, we have travelled the length and breadth of the planet and wanted other fellow Indian travel enthusiasts to be able to experience the same. We want #GTF2018 to springboard a new generation of travelers into having unique personal travel experiences themselves.”
With The Gypsy Travel Festival Sumit and Nelson have set out to achieve one goal, That is to educate the Indian traveller that to travel simply isn’t a means to get away from the bustle of our chaotic Indian lives but its a gateway towards experiencing something ethereal. That’s exactly what they achieved with their inaugural event and seem to continue in that tradition with The Gypsy Travel Festival 2018.
In co-founders own words “ Strive to be a Traveller, not Just a Tourist”
