Queens Drive Club (QDC), India’s first and largest all-women supercar club, organised an extraordinary three-day trip to Rajasthan, 370 km away from the Big Boy Toyz Showroom. Their journey was designed to offer the members, who own their own supercars, not only an exciting ride but also a meaningful experience of empowerment, unity and growth.
The trip kicked off with a thrilling drive along long roads, where the members experienced the exhilaration of driving their supercars together. After the drive, the group visited a nearby village, offering them a chance to escape the busy city life and enjoyed the calm and serenity of rural Rajasthan. The journey immersed the members in the rich culture and heritage of Rajasthan, where they explored traditional crafts, art and local cuisine. A safari through the Sariska Tiger Reserve was another highlight that gave them a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to witness wildlife in its natural habitat.
In addition to the adventure, a special book reading session by popular author Tripti Pandey was also in the itinerary. The trip focused on environmental sustainability. The founders of the resort, along with Ritika Jatin Ahuja, the founder of QDC, lead an eco-planting drive, where all the members took part in planting trees, promoting green living and a cleaner, healthier environment.
The journey concluded with a sound healing session, offering the women a peaceful and rejuvenating experience. They enjoyed delicious Awadhi and Mughlai cuisine, adding to the richness of the cultural experience.
Ritika Jatin Ahuja, the founder of QDC and the COO of Big Boy Toyz, has meticulously planned every detail of this trip. Ritika shared, “This journey is an opportunity for the women to come together, support each other and build meaningful connections that empowers them both individually and collectively. It’s a powerful way for all of us to connect and grow as one community.”
This trip was not only about adventure, but also about creating a space for personal growth, empowerment and environmental responsibility.

Welcome Ritika!
Downtown Mirror Weekly: Ritika, the Queens Drive Club’s trip to Rajasthan sounds incredible! Can you tell us what inspired this unique journey for all-women supercar enthusiasts?
Ritika Jatin Ahuja: Thank you! The inspiration came from a desire to offer something beyond the traditional car rallies. We wanted to create an experience where women could bond over their shared love for supercars but also empower each other in different aspects of life. This trip was an opportunity for us to unite, grow together and experience adventure, vibrant Rajasthani culture and sustainability in a meaningful way.
Downtown Mirror Weekly: How was the experience of driving through long roads with such a powerful group of women? What was the energy like?
Ritika Jatin Ahuja: It was exhilarating! The excitement was palpable as the women drove their supercars together, sharing the joy of the open road. There’s something incredibly empowering about being surrounded by women who are confident, independent and passionate about what they do. The camaraderie that formed was incredible and the energy was electric from start to finish.
Downtown Mirror Weekly: You’ve also planned a visit to a nearby village in Rajasthan. What was the significance of this part of the journey for the participants?
Ritika Jatin Ahuja: The visit to the village offered our members a chance to reconnect with the simplicity and serenity of rural life. It was a peaceful contrast to the hustle of city living and it provided an opportunity for reflection. Being able to step away from the daily grind and enjoy nature, local community and traditional crafts helped create a deeper sense of unity among us all.
Downtown Mirror Weekly: I heard there was a safari through Sariska Reserve as part of the journey. What was the experience like for the women?
Ritika Jatin Ahuja: The safari was one of the most magical parts of the trip. To be in the presence of wildlife in its natural habitat was both humbling and awe-inspiring. It was an unforgettable experience, especially for those who may not have had the chance to experience nature in this way. The safari added an element of adventure and a sense of wonder to the journey.
Downtown Mirror Weekly: You also included a book reading session by author Tripti Pandey. How did this add to the overall experience?
Ritika Jatin Ahuja: The book reading by Tripti Pandey was such a refreshing touch. It allowed our members to engage intellectually and reflect on life outside of just the cars and adventure. It brought a deeper sense of connection, as many of the women shared their thoughts and insights from the session. It was a wonderful way to enrich the experience with a literary and reflective dimension.
Downtown Mirror Weekly: Environmental sustainability seems to be a key theme in this trip, especially with the eco-planting drive. Why is this cause so important to you?
Ritika Jatin Ahuja: Sustainability is something I’m truly passionate about. As we continue to grow, it’s essential to think about how we can leave a positive impact on the environment. The eco-planting drive was a way for us to give back and promote green living. It was wonderful to see everyone actively participating and supporting a cleaner, healthier environment.
Downtown Mirror Weekly: The journey also ended with a sound healing session. What was the idea behind including this?
Ritika Jatin Ahuja: The sound healing session was a perfect way to wind down after such an action-packed trip. It gave everyone a chance to relax, reflect and rejuvenate. We all need moments of peace and calm to recharge and sound healing helped to create that space. It was about nurturing both the mind and the body, fostering holistic wellness.
Downtown Mirror Weekly: Lastly, Ritika, what do you hope the women of Queens Drive Club took away from this experience?
Ritika Jatin Ahuja: I hope they took away a sense of empowerment, connection and personal growth. This trip wasn’t just about driving supercars; it was about bonding with like-minded women, stepping out of our comfort zones and growing together. I want every woman to feel more confident, inspired, and committed to making a positive difference in their own lives and in the world around them.
