Knpoornimaadiga

Bengaluru

Knpoornimaadiga's 5 days trip to Shimla

A dreamy escape to Manali! Manali’s beauty left us speechless — snow-capped peaks, misty mornings, and scenic drives through pine forests. Loved exploring beautiful Solang Valley, snow in Koksar and Sissu. Loved strolling along Mall Road. The local cafes served delicious food with a cozy vibe. A per

fect mix of adventure and peace. Can’t wait to visit again!

Pautalk

Ahmedabad

Pautalk's 6 days trip to Shimla

We booked our tour with travel on ease, for amritsar, dalhousie, dharamshala. They provided the local driver with tempo traveller. The driver was very good, and condition of tempo traveller is also at par. The hotels were also very good at dharamshala ( spring valley) and dalhousie (hotel ark by pax

), except aura grand in amritsar was not upto the expectations, but it was part of tour. Otherwise good services, prompt response from the agent, good communication, and ease of travels.. overall we enjoyed the tour with travel ease. Thanks for the good services.. worth to book.

Ravichandran Nagarajan

Chennai

Ravichandran's 5 days trip to Shimla

Hotel stay are fine. Food is good, we could not get South Indian food for our daughter as she is not able to accustom to north food. Cab and Driver were good. He is very cooperative and safe and good driving. We had only 2 things which could have been better. 1. We expected a driver who can convers

e with us in English, because we are poor in Hindi. But unfortunately that did not happen. 2. While returning back to Delhi the driver who was with us for all 6 days has transferred us to another driver for the last 3 hours drive. The new driver was not conversing at all. I did not even heard his name properly after asking 3 to 4 times. We asked him to stop for tea/coffee few times. In spite he did not stop and his answers were 1 word. Apart from that overall the trip is very memorable

Srishti Keshri

Srishti's 6 days trip to Shimla

Overall, my travel experience was excellent, and I thoroughly enjoyed my trip. A special thanks to Sandeep Sir from Turn On Vacations for his assistance. Hotel Welcome Paradise provided a wonderful stay. The staff were incredibly friendly, and the location offered a perfect view from the room. The

food was good, although there is room for improvement, especially with dinner. The breakfast, however, was quite nice. Hotel Old Manali Retreat was good overall, but we faced some issues with the location on the map, as it was inaccurate. However, the view from the room was fantastic and definitely made my day. The staff and food were below average, though. Hotel Indrasan was another excellent property. The staff were polite, the food was very nice, and we had a good variety of options for both breakfast and dinner. Chalo Kasol Huts and Camp was a great camping option. Although there’s no view from the room, it is located near the river, which allowed us to enjoy the surroundings. The dinner here was excellent, with multiple varieties. It’s important to note that the timing for both dinner and breakfast is fixed. They won’t serve food before the designated time, and while the meals may be delayed, they won’t be served early. Unfortunately, we weren’t able to have breakfast on our last morning due to an early checkout, as my driver was in a hurry. Driver Experience: The driver was good overall. The first two days went smoothly, but his behavior changed on the activity day. We didn’t participate in any of the activities where he dropped us, which seemed to affect his attitude. On the last day, I had informed him multiple times that I needed to reach Chandigarh by 4 PM due to a 5 PM train. However, he had to pick up another traveler, and he dropped us off in Chandigarh at 2 PM. Due to his hurry, we missed our breakfast that morning.

Moupiya Mallick

Delhi

Moupiya's 5 days trip to Shimla

This is our 3rd trip with Travel Triangle. But this time trip was not as we expected as earlier trips. Could have been better. Itinerary was well planned arranged by Travel on Ease and our driver was very professional and polite. Problem was the poor coordination among the local coordinator ,driver

and hotel. Detailed information was not shared with driver about hotels ,bus timing, itinerary etc. We had to wait till last minute for Bus details from delhi to manali and vice versa on which our inter linked travelling journey to Odisha was dependent. Had to call several times for the Travel Details n Timing. We checked out from hotel in kasol and waited for the bus details from 1.30 pm to 7 pm in a restaurant which was very irritating. No details received for further plan. Similarly while travelling from delhi , had to wait in delhi for manali bus details for 11 am to 6 am.Just 1.30 hrs before we received bus details. If we had received details earlier we could arrange hotel for rest and check out hotel accordingly. Manali Hotel "Yaato Retreat" was great. We spent 02 days there in manali. Great service, behaviour, location near mall road. Overall great service. Also thanks to Travel on Ease for the arrangement of Cake on our anniversary day. A big thanks to them. Kasol Hotel Devlok International was also good.location is at the kasol market place.Room view was great.Service was good.You can roam around the market area nearby and visit some famous cafes. The stay was comfortable. Had a very good experience except the starting day and the last day. I would suggest for the customer taking the bus booking from delhi to manali in your own scope instead of any agency in order to avoid the last minute rush. This is also a suggestion to Himachal agency if you can't share the bus details before 01 day then don't take the bus booking in your scope as it creates a big rush confusion and tension in customer part which ultimately destroys all the beautiful memories collected in the trip. Customers forward journey from Delhi is dependent on our itinerary shared timing. Please do share all the details with timing at least 01 day prior so that they can plan accordingly without wasting time sitting idle and plan accordingly for forward journey to their convenience.

Nagraj's 7 days trip to Shimla

We had great experience with Travel Triangle and Travel Talkies. All sightseeing was covered on time by our driver cum guide Mr. Om Sharma. He had good knowledge of places and routes. We liked his service and attentive behaviour. We would surely recommend to our family and friends.

Prajakta Bhide

Mumbai

Prajakta's 6 days trip to Shimla

Booked Amritsar Dalhousie Dharamshala tour with ideal tours. Services of Hotel Sawera Grand at Amritsar were pathetic. The travel agent wanted us to remind her of the trip as she was busy with personal commitments. We had to wait for hotel rooms as the hotel was not informed about early check in. De

spite full payment to the travel agent our check out was delayed as hotel was not paid. Driver drove recklessly in ghats causing motion sickness. The travel agent had no clue about booking at Wagah border and other trek details. Hotel DLS at Mcleodganj and Hotel Ark at Dalhousie were good.
