    Who You're Working With

    Trips planned in more detail than most people would consider normal.

    En Route Luxe is Mihir and Rucha — a couple who designed journeys through Japan, East Africa, and Europe long before it became the work. The people who design your trip are the ones who pick up when something needs handling.

    What Our Travelers Say

    "They didn't just plan our trip — they understood our family. Every detail, from the timing of a sunset boat ride to the hidden gelato shop our kids still talk about, felt designed by someone who truly listened."

    — Anonymous, Italy 2025

    "We'd been to Africa before, but never like this. They knew exactly when and where to be — the migration crossing we witnessed wasn't luck, it was planning."

    — Anonymous, Tanzania & Kenya 2025

    "Japan was our dream trip for years. We were overwhelmed until En Route Luxe showed us it wasn't about doing more — it was about timing it right. Our kids still call it the best week of their lives."

    — Anonymous, Japan 2025

    "We'd already planned most of it ourselves. They checked the plan, fixed the two days that didn't work, and booked the hotels at the same price we'd found — with upgrades we couldn't get on our own."

    — Anonymous, Portugal & Spain 2025

    "What surprised us most was what they told us NOT to do. That restraint — knowing what to skip — made the trip feel effortless instead of exhausting."

    — Anonymous, South Africa 2025

    "We thought a Disney cruise was straightforward — book and go. They showed us how to layer in a private Bahamas excursion, skip the crowds at Castaway Cay, and time the port days so the kids never hit a wall. Best family vacation we've ever taken."
