Young Founder, Strong Vision – The Journey of Abhishek Jindal

 At just 25 years old, Abhishek Jindal stands out as a representative of a new generation of Indian travel entrepreneurs—leaders who build businesses not from boardrooms, but from real-world experience. Long before founding ThrillHikers, Abhishek immersed himself in the operational side of the travel industry, working closely with ground logistics, customer handling, and trip execution. These formative years gave him an unfiltered understanding of how travel actually works beyond brochures and online listings.

Rather than entering the industry with a purely commercial mindset, Abhishek’s journey was shaped by on-ground challenges—last-minute changes, traveler concerns, coordination gaps, and service inconsistencies that often define the travel experience in India. This exposure played a critical role in shaping his core belief: travel businesses should prioritize experience, trust, and reliability over sheer booking volume.

During his early years, Abhishek observed a recurring pattern in the Indian hospitality sector—travelers frequently struggled with unclear pricing, weak communication, and fragmented service delivery. These challenges were even more pronounced in spiritual tourism and adventure travel, where safety, coordination, and trust play a crucial role. Recognizing this gap, Abhishek envisioned a travel brand that would operate differently—one that focused on transparency, strong leadership on trips, and seamless execution across all stages of the journey.

This vision became the foundation of ThrillHikers. From the very beginning, Abhishek committed to making travel smooth, inclusive, and accessible for travelers across different age groups and budget categories. Every product was designed with the traveler’s perspective in mind, ensuring clarity in itineraries, realistic pacing, and dependable on-ground support. Instead of promoting mass tourism, ThrillHikers focused on building meaningful group experiences that encouraged connection and comfort.

As the founder, Abhishek continues to play a deeply hands-on role in the company. He leads strategic planning, partnerships, operational oversight, and brand growth, while remaining actively involved in product design, sales management, and customer experience. This direct involvement allows him to ensure that the brand’s core values are reflected in every trip, every itinerary, and every traveler interaction.

Under his leadership, ThrillHikers has grown steadily while maintaining its focus on quality and traveler satisfaction. Abhishek’s ability to balance growth with experience has helped the brand earn trust in a highly competitive and unorganized market—proving that a strong operational foundation and customer-first mindset can drive long-term success.

Abhishek Jindal’s journey reflects a broader shift in India’s travel industry—where young founders are redefining how travel brands operate by combining practical experience, transparent practices, and community-driven values. With ThrillHikers, he continues to build not just a travel company, but a platform where journeys are thoughtfully designed and travelers feel genuinely cared for.
