Some businesses are born from grand plans, but Travel@7th Gear began with something much simpler a feeling. Kinjal Popat noticed that people loved travelling, but hated everything that came before it: the messy research, confusing prices, scattered information, and last-minute stress. She watched friends return from trips feeling more exhausted than refreshed.
That’s when she and her husband, Vishal, asked themselves a question that would shape their future:
Why can’t travel be smooth, transparent, and thoughtfully planned every single time?
From that simple thought, Travel@7th Gear took its first breath.
Starting out wasn’t glamorous. Kinjal had to prove that travel planning is more than “selling packages.” She spent hours building networks, negotiating with hotels, checking minute details, and personally ensuring every trip ran the way a trip should effortlessly. The trust didn’t come overnight. But one satisfied traveller led to another, and soon, word of mouth became her biggest strength.
Today, Travel@7th Gear stands for honesty, clarity, and premium personalised travel experiences. Every itinerary is crafted like a story balanced, detailed, and designed to let travellers enjoy without worrying about coordination or hidden surprises. Their core values are simple but rare: clean communication, fair pricing, reliability, and genuine care.
Their audience ranges from families to couples to travel groups who prefer experiences over checklists. And it is this loyal, returning community that has shaped the brand’s growth more than anything else.
Kinjal’s leadership rooted in empathy, detail, and relationship-building — has given the brand a personality that resonates deeply with women and families.
Looking ahead, she envisions Travel@7th Gear expanding into luxury travel, eco-tourism, curated group tours, and smart digital planning tools.
Her message to aspiring women entrepreneurs is simple and powerful:
“Start. Even if you’re scared. Even if you’re unsure. Growth begins the moment you decide to believe in your own vision.”
