Krishna Ghosh
Biography
Born and brought up in Kolkata, Krishna is a true India expert, having begun her career in the Indian travel industry – a role that saw her journey extensively across her homeland and neighbouring Sri Lanka. Then, since arriving in the UK nearly two decades ago, she’s travelled throughout Europe, the Far East and North America. She has also developed a real passion for Africa, having cruised the Nile, ridden South Africa’s ultra-luxurious Rovos Rail and been on safari everywhere from Zambia and Zimbabwe to Kenya, Botswana and Namibia. Krishna is also an expert in all things Middle East and Indian Ocean, counting the white-sand islands of the Maldives and Mauritius among her favourite destinations.
Indeed, swimming with turtles in the Seychelles is one of her world highlights, along with seeing Machu Picchu and riding a helicopter over the Rocky Mountains. However, wherever she travels, Krishna loves to explore new cultures and meet new people. It’s this passion, in-depth knowledge and wealth of experience that she brings to each and every client.
