Home / About us

Pune’s travel house, since 1984.

For four decades, Leonard Travels has been where Pune’s journeys begin — from our office at Tej House on M.G. Road, Camp.

From the ticket counter to the whole journey

Leonard Travels Pvt. Ltd. opened in 1984 as a ticketing office in Pune Camp. Families came to us for their first flight abroad, students for their visas, businesses for the ticket they needed tomorrow.

Founded by a former Air India manager, Leonard Travels opened at Tej House on M.G. Road, one of Camp’s landmark buildings of its time. In 1985 it was appointed General Sales Agent for Ethiopian Airlines, a role it has held ever since. In 2002 the company was acquired by Mr Laxman Tejumal Bhojwani, and in 2004 Mrs Kajal Bhojwani became Managing Director. Under her leadership the business grew strongly, from corporate and leisure air ticketing into complete holidays. Karan Bhojwani joined in 2006 and today leads the company as CEO.

Leonard Holidays carries that same care into complete trips — designed by planners you can meet, call or message, and backed by the travel desk that has served Pune for 40 years.
