I believe traveling and taking a holiday is one thing that makes all of us excited and happy. And since 2017 had a lot to offer with its long weekends, we wanted to make the most of it too.

Both my wife and I wanted to explore South India and while I was looking for places we could visit, the flights, hotels, and more, my wife mentioned about her friend who had recently come back from her honeymoon in Kerala.

Like every curious couple, it got us to checking their pictures on social media, which made us call her to understand about her trip plan. She mentioned one name and that was TravelTriangle. It was new to us so I immediately checked up the website and I must say I was impressed in no time. The fact that they allow travelers to customize their holiday and choose between different quotes as per one’s budget totally won me over! I booked our trip with them, and was again amazed with their smooth booking process where they included all the places to visit on a romantic Kerala trip and the must-have experiences for that we were looking for.
