AI-powered traveltech startup The Tarzan Way has raised Rs 2 crore in a funding round led by Gurugram-based Inflection Point Ventures (IPV).
The round also saw participation from UK-based travel company Your Trips Limited, Prateek Maheshwari—Founder of edtech unicorn PhysicsWallah—and other angel investors.
The fresh infusion of capital will be channelled into product development, marketing, operational efficiency, team expansion, and the upcoming launch of its new “Exploration App.” The platform aims to further its mission of making global travel easier and more personalised through its AI-led solutions.
Founded in 2020 by Shikhar Chadha and Shivank Tripathi, The Tarzan Way serves as an intelligent travel companion, offering hyper-personalised, authentic holiday experiences across the globe.
It differentiates itself through features like a one-click booking engine, 24x7 live concierge support, and an AI-backed itinerary builder.
The startup has demonstrated robust growth with a 300% year-on-year revenue increase and a 70% month-on-month user uptick.
Its popularity on digital platforms is evident with over 35,000 social media followers and more than 10 million content views. It has already clocked Rs 13.5 crore in gross booking value.
“Our passion lies in creating memories that last. We don’t just plan trips; we help people craft stories that stay with them forever. That’s the core spirit behind The Tarzan Way,” said co-founder Shikhar Chadha.
India’s travel and tourism industry contributed over $199 billion to the country’s GDP in 2023 and is projected to reach $512 billion by 2028, underlining the vast potential that The Tarzan Way seeks to tap into with its AI-first approach.
