Nothing from a brochure
Every recommendation comes from experience or a trusted contact met face to face.
Meet the founder
The traveller behind every journey.
A chartered accountant who spent years in banking and consulting, Nikita Thakkar gave every spare week of leave to the road. Yumora is that passion, now planned for you.
About Yumora
A private travel studio, built around you.
Yumora designs tailor-made journeys for travellers from India. Every route is drawn from scratch after a conversation, never taken off a shelf, and every journey is planned around your dates, your pace, the way you eat and the moments you care about.
We plan fifty-five destinations across Asia, India, Europe, Africa and the Pacific. Recommendations come from experience or from trusted contacts met face to face, and one planner holds your journey from the first message to the last evening.

Her story
Balance sheets, then the world.
Nikita trained as a chartered accountant and built her career in banking and consulting: long weeks, full calendars, leave that had to be earned. Like so many of us, she spent those weeks dreaming about where she would go next.
The difference is that she went. Mountain roads and island coves, great cities and quiet villages, very often on her own. Every trip taught her something about what makes a journey unforgettable, and almost none of it was in a guidebook.
Why Yumora
A passion, shared.
Every traveller asks the same questions. Where should we stay? Which month is right? Is it safe on my own? How do I make one week feel like three?
Yumora is her answer, for everyone: a private travel studio where each journey is planned the way she plans her own. With care for the small things, respect for your time, and the quiet confidence that someone has already thought of everything.

The name
Why Yumora?
Two Japanese words that hold the two halves of every journey: the place you imagine, and the distance you cross to reach it.
夢
Yume, a dream.
The journey as you first picture it, before it has dates or a route. That is where every conversation begins.
空
Sora, the sky.
The distance between here and there, crossed with care. Everything we arrange lives in that space.
Tell Nikita where you are dreaming of.
Even a half-formed idea is enough to start.
