“Be ready to go beyond your comfort zone”

It was in 2010 when Taruna Seth realised that there’s a huge gap in the luxury travel market for high-end experiential-based holidays. That’s what inspired her to start Pearl Luxe, a luxury travel consultancy company.

What’s the USP of your company?

We work closely with travellers to curate an itinerary that’s perfect for them. Specialising in luxury honeymoons and theme-based travel and unique experiences, we craft holidays around the globe. At Pearl Luxe, our goal is to move away from a ‘sea of sameness’ and understand that authenticity is more about something genuine and real and less about the amenities. We look at different elements such as art, gastronomy, shopping, and history to craft travel experiences of a lifetime.

What makes Pearl Luxe different from other luxury travel companies?

There is excess of access to travel information today thanks to the Internet. But our clients trust us to sift through the noise and curate the best experience for them given their profile, budget and expectations. In this time of information overload, they like experts and experienced travel advisors to plan their time away and plan it seamlessly.

Peru is one of my top holiday destinations. It offers a mix of art, culture, gastronomy, history, shopping and the great outdoors.
