Kamal Tour

We are located right at Lokhara Chariali. It's a busy part of the neighborhood and we spend most of our day in this small office. It isn't a big fancy place with glass walls or anything. We just have a couple of desks, some wooden chairs for people to sit on while they wait, and an old fan that makes a bit of noise in the summer. Kamal started this tour business quite a few years ago because he knew the local roads well. He's usually sitting at the front desk or he’s out checking on the cars. We handle a lot of local travel, mostly people wanting to go to the hills or perhaps a wedding in another district. It gets quite loud with all the traffic at the Chariali right outside our door, but we're used to it. Sometimes we have to shout over the trucks to hear what the customers are saying. We don't have a big computer system, so we still write a lot of things down in those big ledgers. It feels more reliable that way. The tea shop next door brings us chai a few times a day which is nice. Most of the people who come in are from around here. They know us and we know them. We don't do any big advertising. If the drivers are on time and the car is clean, people come back. It's just a simple, local business where we try to get things done without making a big fuss.
