The Journey of Rashid Abbas
In December 2008, Rashid Abbas founded Arooha Tours with a clear target: to make traveling simpler and stress free. It is now one of India’s leading travel solutions providers offering holiday packages, visa processing, and ticketing services. Over the years, Arooha has dedicated itself around customer-centric values which helps the company expand its reach across the UAE and India serving a wide selection of travelers from budget adventurers to corporate clients.
Rashid, as the founder, keeps a hands-on approach and makes sure that his deep knowledge towards the travel industry goes to good use which most positively impacts the business.
Travelling with his own team; family
Traveling to different locations around the globe has always been an important aspect of Rashid Abbas’s life as both a professional and an individual. He ardently believes that the shared journeys create the most meaningful experiences. From Abbas’s personal life, we see that, from tranquil beaches to lively cities, he has travelled extensively, not just as a tourist, but as a father and husband. As these personal excursions allow him to understand what families long for in a holiday, such as, safety, ease, happiness, and even a little adventure, his understanding with families gets richer. With this Arooha Tours has the necessary tools and resources to design family holidays full of awe and cherished memories.
Adrenaline packed journeys
No one can ignore a challenge, and neither can Rashid Abbas. Off the beaten path paragliding, remote trail hiking, and desert dune driving are all in a day's work for him as he takes on anything and everything. Initially for him true adventure used to be stepping outside of one’s given comfort zone. However, now he believes that these activities can enable one to disconnect from everything and gain a sense of perspective, inner-strength, and appreciation towards the society and the surroundings. With Arooha Tours being his milestone, all these experiences along with his global travels indeed contributed towards curating holiday packages at Arooha tours. Each package is thoughtfully designed to meet the needs of various travelers, be it first-time explorers or seasoned travelers, ensuring utmost authenticity, safety, and excitement.
Wandering Through the World’s Great Cities
While Rashid Abbas will never forget the elegant views of Istanbul's old quarters or the energy rush of Times Square, he always finds new reasons to admire cities further. Each place has a distinctive charm in terms of architecture, food, pace and even the people. He utilizes these journeys to gain the understanding what moves travelers beyond tourist attractions. Arooha Tours uses this understanding to provide thoughtfully designed city brakes, which include sightseeing, immersion and authentic experiences.
From his own travels to yours
Every offer by Arooha Tours has undergone experience verification, usually by Rashid Abbas himself. From lodging and airport shuttle services to sightseeing and restaurants, Rashid makes it a point that all services offered are of the best quality before being recommended for clients.
