A taxi stand, an Etios, and a daughter's name
Nandini Travels is a Himachal Pradesh Department of Tourism authorised tour and taxi operator, registered in Kangra. We started in 2018 with one Etios parked at the ISBT taxi stand in Adarsh Colony, Kangra — named after the founder's daughter.
Eight years on: 4.9★ on Google, a six-vehicle commercial-permit fleet (two Etios, Innova Crysta, Innova Hycross, two Swift Dzires), and five full-time Kangra-based drivers working alongside Arvind.
Every booking is handled directly by Arvind — no call-centre, no commission agents. Vehicles carry valid HP commercial permits, fitness certificates and tourist taxi licenses. Drivers background-checked and trained for hill terrain.
Every booking comes to me first. No call-centre, no commission agents.
Arvind, founder
I run Nandini Travels — a Himachal Pradesh Department of Tourism authorised tour and taxi operator, based at the ISBT Taxi Stand, Adarsh Colony, Kangra. Eight years on Himachal hill roads.
We operate on commercial tourist-taxi permits. Every vehicle is registered in the HP 01 series, with valid fitness certificate and state-border permits for J&K, Punjab and Uttarakhand. Five drivers work alongside me, Vinkal, Shammi, Ravi and Narender among them — all Kangra locals, all background-checked, hill-trained, and full-time on our payroll.
Every booking comes to me first. No call-centre, no commission agents. Most mornings I stop at Brajeshwari Mata Mandir before the day starts. Jai Mata Di.
— Arvind
