Mrs. Meenakshi Kumari/Founder, Vishakha Voyage

Namaste,

My journey into travel wasn't just professional - it was personal.

I hold an MBA in Rural Development from IGNOU, but my true education came from years of devotion to one cause: making pilgrimage smooth, safe, and soulful. Coming from a family deeply rooted in the travel field, with my husband's long experience guiding us, I saw firsthand how a well-planned yatra could transform lives - and how a poorly managed one could distract from devotion.

My motto has always been simple: Provide true comfort to every yatri who comes from across our country. Age, background, or budget should never come between a devotee and their sacred destination.

Recently, I had the blessing of organizing a 3-bus yoga group in the land of Buddha - Bodhgaya. Watching 135 yatris meditate under the Bodhi Tree, with every detail from meals to darshan flowing seamlessly, I knew it was time. Time to give this seva a name, a home, a promise.

That's how Vishakha Voyage was born.

Why "Vishakha"?

The name is close to my heart for two reasons.

First, Vishakha is my elder daughter's name - and like every mother, I wanted my work to carry her blessings.

Second, Vishakha is one of the bestie of Shrimati Radha Rani as per sanatan Dharma and third reason is that, Vishakha holds deep meaning in Buddhism. The month of Vaisakha marks Buddha Purnima - the day of the Buddha's birth, enlightenment, and Mahaparinirvana. To walk in Buddha's footsteps during Vishakha is to walk in grace.

So Vishakha Voyage is not just a company. It's a mother's love, a devotee's prayer, and a professional's promise - all traveling together.

For 14 years now, we've carried that spirit across Bihar's sacred circuit and beyond. Whether you're 8 or 80, traveling solo or in a sangha - at Vishakha Voyage, you're family.

I invite you to unplug from the stress of planning, and plug into the peace of pilgrimage.

Let us handle the journey. You embrace the blessing.

With warm regards,
Meenakshi Kumari
