Escape Story — Travel Design Studio

Every journey deserves a story worth telling.

We plan international and domestic holidays for Indian travellers the way a good story is written — with a beginning, a build, and a moment you'll talk about for years.

Our Philosophy

We don't sell holidays. We create stories.

Escape Story was built around a simple belief — a trip is only ever a great one because of the story it becomes afterwards. So instead of handing you a fixed package off a shelf, we sit down, understand what kind of story you're trying to write, and design a journey around it — whether that's a honeymoon in Santorini or a quiet weekend in Coorg.

Two Kinds of Escape

Where will your next chapter be set?

From island-hopping in Southeast Asia to a houseboat on Dal Lake — every itinerary starts with one simple question.

Why Escape Story

Travel planning, without the guesswork

Story-first itineraries

We build every trip around what you want to feel and remember — not a template pulled off a shelf. Every itinerary is written, not assembled.

🤝

Vetted ground partners

Hotels, guides and local operators we've personally worked with — not the highest bidder. If we wouldn't send our own family there, we don't send you.

One consultant, start to finish

The same person who plans your trip is who you call if plans change mid-journey. No call centres, no handoffs, no starting over.

How It Works

How we craft your story

01

Discover

A conversation about who's travelling, what you want out of the trip, and the story you're hoping to tell afterwards.

02

Design

A draft itinerary built around your answers — destinations, pacing and stays chosen with intent, not convenience.

03

Refine

We go back and forth until every day feels right, adjusting pace, budget and details until it's genuinely yours.

04

Depart

Documents, bookings and a consultant on call throughout — so all that's left for you to do is show up and live it.

Traveller Stories

Told in their own words

★★★★★

"Every single day of our Bali trip felt considered — nothing generic about it. It genuinely felt like someone had written our honeymoon for us."

A&R
Aditi & Rohan
Bali Honeymoon
★★★★★

"We've used travel agents before, but never had one who actually picked up the phone when our flight got delayed in Kashmir. That's the difference."

S
Sameer Kapoor
Kashmir Family Trip
★★★★★

"The Maldives itinerary they built for us was better value than anything we'd priced ourselves, and the resort felt hand-picked, not off a list."

N&P
Neha & Prateek
Maldives Honeymoon
★★★★★

"Our Andaman trip had zero hiccups — ferries, resorts, even a last-minute weather change was handled before we even knew there was a problem."

V
Varun Mehta
Andaman Islands
★★★★★

"Six of us travelled together on the Group package to Thailand and not once did it feel like a compromise between everyone's plans. Genuinely well paced."

R
Rhea D'Souza

★★★★★

"Booked the Budget package to Goa expecting to compromise on comfort, and didn't. Everything promised was delivered, nothing felt cut short."

"Rajasthan on our own would've taken weeks of research. They had the whole Golden Triangle and desert camp mapped out before we'd even finished asking questions."

M
Meera Iyer

★★★★★

"The Dubai desert safari and the Abu Dhabi day trip were both exactly where they said they'd be, on time, no last-minute surprises. Rare for a first international trip."
