Established in 2020 by Shivank Tripathi and Shikhar Chadha, The Tarzan Way uses artificial intelligence to provide hyper-personalized travel planning experiences, enabling users to build customized itineraries at an instant.

The funds raised will be used across major verticals such as product development (35%), operations (25%), marketing (20%), HR & admin (15%), and other initiatives (5%).

The firm is also gearing up to introduce its new "Exploration App," which will allow hassle-free travel planning through its website. The app will have an artificial intelligence-based booking engine, one-click itinerary builder, and 24/7 concierge service, making the journey from planning to action easy for the user.

Since launch, The Tarzan Way has surpassed a gross booking value of Rs 13.5 crore, recorded 300% year-on-year revenue growth, and is seeing 70% month-on-month user growth. The brand has also established a robust digital footprint with over 35,000 social media fans and over 10 million views on content.

With the tourism industry of India expected to reach $512 billion by 2028, The Tarzan Way is poised to catch the wave of increasing demand for customized, tech-driven travel services.
