Campaign to be initiated in Maharashtra with future plans to extend more offers throughout the country
Mumbai, August 11, 2017: – Wandertrails, India’s most unique and leading experiential travel start-up, has recently struck an array of great partnerships and collaborations to provide enhanced and value added offerings to its customers. One such key partnership is with Uber, the largest on demand ridesharing company. Through this partnership riders can book UberHIRE rides to visit these destinations.
Wandertrails offers experiences – within the city and regions around the city. The partnership with Uber is designed to offer a plethora of travel experiences for Uber riders that include bespoke destinations, experiential stays and immersive activities. The collaboration will provide convenient and affordable half-day and full day tours around destinations like Mumbai, Pune, Lonavala, Nasik, Kamshet, etc. Apart from being extremely useful for residents of Maharashtra, it will be a boon for domestic and foreign tourists.
Commenting on the collaboration, Bansi Kotecha, GM, Uber Pune said, “At Uber, we’re committed to celebrating cities. We are excited to partner with Wandertrails to provide the convenience of booking an UberHIRE ride to offbeat locations in Maharashtra.”
Vishnu Menon, Co-founder & CEO of Wandertrails further elaborated, “Wandertrails is a pioneer in the arena of experiential travel in the country and we have always desired to provide a 360 0 experience to the traveller. Hence we are not only extensively adding to our list of destinations and experiences but are also looking to actively collaborate with allied service providers to facilitate the customer comprehensively. Associating with a global brand as Uber is a significant step for Wandertrails and will give us further impetus to develop and improvise on our services and offers.”
