The dream team behind Take Me 2 The World
Nats Subramanian
and Uma Natarajan
After more than 2 decades of working in the IT Industry in roles ranging from Computer Network Specialist to IT Projects & Operations Management, Nats gave up his 6-figure salary job and co-founded Take Me 2 The World with his wife Uma.
Uma is no stranger to running a business. She has run a Web Design business for a few years in the past, before starting Uma’s Indian Vegetarian Cooking Classes to pursue her passion for teaching and sharing her Indian heritage.
The couple enjoys travel, sharing, and learning about new cultures, and the company of people. This drove them first to start Take Me 2 India in April 2013, with the objective of offering authentic and unique India experience to Kiwis. Nats escorted a family of 5 for 3 weeks in South India on our first ever tour soon after.
They later added one more brand called Take Me 2 New Zealand, with the same objective of showcasing the real New Zealand to International visitors. Our happy guests started asking for more destinations and we complied by adding Sri Lanka, Maldives, Australia, Japan and Morocco to name a few. We then decided to have a single brand called Take Me 2 The World.
For over 7 years, we have been designing and organising unforgettable International travel experiences for hundreds of guests. We specialise in creating bespoke itineraries discerning travellers, providing high quality experience and great value for money. In addition to leisure holidays, we are also experts in education and sports tours.
Uma and Nats say the best part of their job has been lifelong friendships they have forged with many of our guests.
