PONNU TRAVELS: THE ORIGINAL.
Ponnu Travels — A Legacy on Four Wheels
A 20-year-old boy from Chalakudy once dreamed not of offices or desks, but of engines, gears, and roads that led to unknown places.
What began with a humble cycle, cared for like treasure, grew into a legacy that has stood tall for over 30 years — built purely on hard work, love, dedication, and passion.

The Man Behind the Wheel
Unnikrishnan C.J., the firstborn son of C.P. Janardhanan and M.R. Sulochana, was destined to move with motion itself.
His first cycle — polished daily, guarded fiercely — became his first teacher. Then came his bike, then his jeep, fondly named “Ponnu.”
By then, his passion had become unstoppable. His parents tried to guide him elsewhere, but his heart beat to the rhythm of roaring engines.

The Birth of Ponnu Travels
With borrowed money, helping hands from family and friends, and a spirit that refused to rest, Unnikrishnan bought his first tourist bus.
What followed was a journey that turned one man’s passion into a trusted name across Thrissur — Ponnu Travels.
From one bus, his fleet grew to twelve, each one carrying thousands of memories — school trips filled with laughter, wedding journeys filled with joy, pilgrimages filled with faith.

The Storm and the Stand
Then came Covid-19.
The roads fell silent, the engines cold. Every month brought heavy losses and unbearable taxes.
What destroyed many empires could have broken him too — but not Unnikrishnan.
He sold five buses to survive but kept his head high and his faith unbroken.
The remaining four stood like loyal companions — symbols of endurance and hope.
To rebuild his foundation, he even explored new ventures like cattle farming, proving that passion finds a way to live, no matter the road.

The Legacy Lives On
Today, in 2025, Ponnu Travels stands proud with a fleet of five powerful buses — not fewer dreams, but stronger ones.
It’s not a story of decline.
It’s a story of resilience.
A reminder that even when the wheels stop, the spirit to move never dies.
While others may now use the name Ponnu for their packages or promotions — the truth remains unshakable:
The name, the trust, and the journey of Ponnu Travels have always belonged to Unnikrishnan.
And to every soul who believed in his dream, every friend who stood by him, and every passenger who chose his road.
