Founder Message


Jitendra Jha, founder of Anav Travel Services, never set out to build a travel company — he set out to travel. Years of exploring cities and pilgrimage sites across India showed him something most tourists never think about until they experience it themselves: how often travelers, pilgrims, and especially older guests struggle with unreliable transport, unsafe arrangements, and a complete lack of personal care on the road. That firsthand experience became the reason Anav Travel Services exists today.

Mr. Jha believes travel is one of life's most honest teachers — that real knowledge and self-growth come not from books, but from the road itself. He often says that when a person travels with peace of mind, they don't just reach a destination, they reach a little closer to themselves. This belief shapes everything Anav Travel Services does: if the company can remove the stress and uncertainty from a journey, it helps travelers experience that growth fully — and that, in his view, benefits everyone involved.

To bring this vision to life, Mr. Jha built a trained, dedicated team that treats every guest like family rather than a customer. Whether it's a sightseeing trip through Varanasi, a pilgrimage to Ayodhya or Gaya, or a fully customized itinerary, the goal is the same: make travelers feel as comfortable and cared for as they would at home.

Over more than 10 years, this approach has turned Anav Travel Services into one of Varanasi's most trusted names in tour and travel — not through aggressive marketing, but through word-of-mouth trust earned one satisfied traveler at a time. As Mr. Jha puts it, profit was never the goal. Helping people travel safely, affordably, and meaningfully always has been — and that single principle continues to guide every decision the company makes.
