Travel Masterz

I would like to thank you for the arrangements made during our trip to France and Switzerland. All the arrangements were exceptional except a few glitches in Disneyland... I did not face even a single problem anywhere, even at Paris where one of the tours was canceled and you guys had to plan an alternative at the last minute. Thanks for the same. My wife and the kids enjoyed all the places and this definitely goes as one of the best trips that we have had. I usually plan myself and this was the first time I trusted on someone other than myself to plan the trip and I must say I was pretty happy. Switzerland was absolutely wonderful and we had the time of our life there... Thank you for recommending the Swiss miniature park at Melide which was absolutely wonderful. My wife always had a dream of clicking a yashraj like a movie snap in Switzerland (thanks to some shahrukh-kajol movies) and we were happy to create a few moments of our own. I also appreciate the responsiveness of your team be it you or Amit and the support extended when I needed it ( even at an odd hour like 11:30 PM) Overall we had a wonderful trip and would like to thank each and every member of your team who took effort to make our trip wonderful and one to be remembered forever. Kudos to your team... Kindly pass on my regards and thanks to each and every team member who was involved in planning our trip A huge thanks to everyone! Keep up the good work. You are doing a wonderful job. Thank you. Best regards, Kartik Iyer

"Used their services to book a 12 day trip and each day was absolutely worth it.

Great service. Can work on costing side

It was a well organised trip.

It was my honeymoon trip and everything was well organized by travel masters team. Hotels were awesome. Tavel masters team was always available for help. Would like specially mention Arpita & Amit for their support. I only like to say few world Hats off guys.Keep doing the good work.

Travel Masterz was introduced to us by Travel Triangle and it was a nice experience having them plan our trip for us. From the start to the end they were with us guiding us through our trip. Arpita from Travel Materz was our personal planner who helped us select the right tours at our destination and also helped us before the trip by calling and giving us tips and suggestions. We did have a bit of a cancellation of one of the tours in Florence due to bad weather, but on the whole we had an amazing time. Arpita kept in touch with us on the trip as well and was very prompt in replying with suggestions such as best restaurants in the area, best things to do apart from our standard planned tours etc Thanks to Travel Triangle and Travel Masters for the amazing memories.

Travel Masterz helped me to design my trip really well. Both Arpita and Amit were really friendly and helpful. Whenever I called them, they supported me before and during the trip. The location and quality of the hotels were really good. The quality and timing of the cabs they provided were great. The excursions that they designed for me were well timed. The trip was designed really well to utilize the time efficiently. Starting from VISA application, they supported at every stage of the trip. Thank you Travel Masterz and I recommend them to everyone.

Had an immensely enjoyable UK tour curated to our tastes by Arpita and team. Right from when we landed in London to when we boarded our plane back to India, we had no hassles anywhere. Arpita was thoughtful enough to suggest hotels close to the hub or located close to a Train station at a very reasonable price. The itinerary that was first offered to us covered most of the places we had in mind and they were happy to add any alterations that we asked for. The guided tours organized for us were all very professional & entertaining and the guides had profound knowledge about the places. A bustling London, a very quiet and scenic Windermere, a very historic Edinburgh with its creepily exciting stories. Couldn't have asked for more !!! Travel triangle helped us a lot in getting many agents to meet our requirements. Also thanks to Shilpa Verdan from TT.

Overall the trip went fine. But I must mention the following: No whatsapp number given by travel masterz due to which we faced difficulty in contacting them. All foreign agents provided us with their whatsapp number as soon as they met us. Hotel bookings made for incorrect dates which resulted in an incorrect invitation letter from greece agent and thereby we faced issue at the vfs centre. After payment confirmation from our side for the package, we had to follow up with the agent Shalini at every stage till the date of departure. I believe that a small request of rescheduling a ticket from dubai to delhi was not taken seriously. After confirming that the flight can be reschrduled, we were told at the last minute that it can be done by the customer itself. We loved the places Athens, Mykonos and definitely the heart Santorini. All foreign agents were wholly supportive and helpful and punctual all the time.

First of all a big thank you to Travel Masterz and Travel Triangle for making our first Euro trip a memorable one. Getting to the details, my request was addressed by Punaravasu in the beginning from Travel Masterz and he was very patient with my requests and crafted the itinerary the way I wanted. I was helped for the visa application process by Amit very efficiently. 5 days prior to the trip, we received the vouchers but only for Italy since there was some logistic issue for arranging the tours in Paris. However that was explained in detail by Arpita and later the tours were booked as per my preference. I was briefed by Arpita 1 day prior to the trip and she explained things in great detail which helped a lot during our time in Italy and Paris. Her suggestions on food and things to do in our free time was exceptional. Now coming to the trip. The location of the hotels was perfect in Italy, it was close to the stations and close enough to the attractions that we could walk to. The hotel in Paris could have been better situated. We loved Hotel Principe in Venice. All the tours that were arranged went according to the plan. However there were a few things that could have been better- like for eiffel tower, our ticket allowed us only to the second level and not to the top which left us a bit disappointed; the tour to Cinque Terre didn't include lunch which would have been a life saver since the place is tiny and packed with tourists and getting an empty table anywhere was a herculean task. There was one goof-up with our flight ticket from Venice to Paris- when we tried checking in , we were told our tickets had been cancelled. Thanks to Amit, who was reachable on a Sunday , we were able to make it on that flight. He sent us the correct PNR of our tickets and informed us that apparently we had been sent the wrong tickets! I ignore to let this fault give my trip a lesser rating because of Amit's responsiveness. Had it not been for him, we would have been in a soup. I would suggest a better QC. If I may suggest, the travel masterz team seems like a very good group, you should suggest some unique experience for making the trips more fun and different from the usual. Keep up the good work. This was the first time I chose to book my trip through travel triangle and I am pretty satisfied! Cheers! Dipty

Hotel tax should be included in package. It was a surprise for me to pay 35 France as tax while I checked in hotel.

The trip was great booking thru travel triangle with the travel agent Travel Masterz. I visited Italy & Switzerland and Everything was organised n hassle free. All the hotels were in the city centre with good connectivity to train stations n markets. I will definitely book my next trip with travel masterz

First europe tour and hence didnt have much expectations from the agent but overall well managed and no major issues surfaced during the visits.

Well for introduction, me (26) & my wife (25) are software engineers (yeah, very new) working in Pune, from Rajasthan. We went to Italy for a tour of 9 days from 5th May - 14th May of 2018. So, below is a detailed review from our end both about the tour agency & our tour.... ****Flights**** --> Did not face any issue in flights, it was all good. (Lufthansa & Turkish) --> **Tip: Do register your meal preference before 48 hrs of your departure (sometimes you might face an issue if not done so) ****ROME**** # Hotel (Palladium Palace) --> Room: Average --> Breakfast: Amazing --> Location: Amazing (just a few blocks from the train/metro station) # 05/05 --> As soon as we reached hotel, in 1 hour we had a prebooked walking guided tour for "Colosseum & Ancient Rome". Definitely, you cannot miss Colosseum when you are in Rome, and with a guide it becomes more interesting. But to our bad luck, the particular guide we were assigned was highly boring and with a very bad english. --> Went back to hotel in 2/3 hrs and that was it for that day. # 06/05 --> This was free day without any pre-bookings. So, we explored different places in the city by metro and on foot (majorly). --> Went to many places like: Spanish Steps (Beautiful), Park Villa Borghese (Do take self-driven golf-car designed bikes there, it is so much fun) Vatican City (Must visit, but we did not go inside the church as it was huge queue, but if you want then leave early), Piazza Navona (Street art/music), Pantheon (Nice church), Fontana di Trevi etc. --> All these places were really worth, and there are many other places about which you can research earlier & plan accordingly --> Exploring Rome on foot is an amazing experience, it is a beautiful city, while exploring you will come across many beautiful streets, buildings etc. --> **Tip: Do ask for a paper-map from your hotel reception, because when you are exploring on foot, it is even more helpful than googlemaps. ****AMALFI COAST**** # Hotel (Residence Due Torri) --> Room: WOW !! Incredibly beautiful !! So, here we were not given hotel room, but a studio apartment, which was kind of 1BHK with a sea-facing big balcony. And the walls were so white, the furniture and everything was so so beautiful, like a movie. --> Breakfast: Wasn't included, but the kitchen was fully equipped, so it was great fun for us to cook. --> Location: 1. The view and the particular geographical location of that place is amazing, a small town (Maori) with very less tourists. 2. Now, Amalfi Coast is coastline of a group of towns (Salerno, Cetara, Maori, Minori, Amalfi, Praiono, Positano, Sorrento). So, Maori is a little earlier in the coastline, not in the middle, and the more tourist fav. places are in the middle or towards the last. But, trust me, this place is so beautiful to stay, that a little extra time to travel from there would not bother at all. # 07/05 --> Relaxed # 08/05 --> Free day. So, we explored 2 of the most popular towns (Positano & Amalfi) on the costline and Maori. These were all beautiful places. --> There are different ways to commute (ferry, bus, self-driven cars/bikes), but we opted for ferries. Which is a costlier than others (not too much), but it is a memorable experience, plus you get the amazing view of the coast from sea. --> **Tip: There are some hidden gems on this coast like cliffs, beaches etc., you can do some pre-handed research abouth those and plan accordingly (we missed that). # 09/05 --> We had a prebooked tour on this day for the island of Capri. --> A cab took us from hotel to Sorrento town, and from there we with a group of 10 people took a tour from Sorrento to Capri island on a samll yatch. Wow ! That was an incredible experience, the beautiful sea, the yatch pilot took us to different amazing places around the island, breath-taking views, there were complimentry drinks & snacks, he even stopped it in the midlle of the sea and we could just take a swim there, you cam lie in front of the yatch. It was 1 of the best days on our tour. --> Then we were there on Capri island for a couple of hours, which was also quite good. --> Overall this is a must must thing to do, if you are in Amalfi. ****LA SPEZIA (CINQUE TERRE)**** # Hotel (Cinque Terre Gateway) --> Room: Amazing !! the best hotel room we had on our tour. Like those classy pretty ones which you would want for your honeymoon, the furniture, the bed, the walls, the bath everything. --> Breakfast: They provided coupons for a cafe, but the breakfast was too average & limited --> Location: Amazing (very near to the train station) # 10/05 --> Relaxed # 11/05 --> So, La Spezia is a big town, and there is a popular place nearby "Cinque Terre", which is a coastline of 5 villages very near to each other, with each village having it's own history & significance. --> All these 5 villages are conncted by a railway line which runs parallel to the sea --> So you have to take a day train pass from la Spezia terminal, and then you can visit all the towns 1 after another or in any sequence you want. --> All of these are beautiful, especially "Manarola", BUT BUT, though not exactly but still is kind of similar to Amalfi where Amalfi being 10 times more beautiful. (We wanted a place which was more countryside with less tourists, but it was also hugely crowded) --> Since, we had been to Amalfi, we were not very excited by the place. The best thing for us here was the hotel. --> **Tip: If you are going to Amalfi, then definitely skip this place, and can opt for Florence or some beautiful beach location in South. ****VENICE**** # Hotel (Amadeus) --> Room: Really good --> Breakfast: Really good --> Location: Amazing (very near to the train station) # 12/05 --> We had a prebooked guided walking tour of Venice & Gondola ride from afternoon to evening. --> And this time the guide was phenomenal, such an entertaining guide with great knowledge and humor as well, and Gondola ride is defnitely an experience. --> Then we just took a self tour around the streets of Venice. # 13/05 --> Again we had a prebooked ferry tour to 3 islands (Murano, Burano & Torcello) --> This is a must to do thing in Venice, all these 3 islands are an amazing experience to take. Murano -- You would never forget the glass factory workshop (Tip: They have beautiful Pandora braceletes there, if you want to buy those, buy from there, because you can roam araound in whole of venice & you will not find the same thing) Torcello & Burano are also very beautiful & so colorful. --> **Tip: If you have 1 more day, then you should also visit "Lido de Venezia" which is near to Venice, and it will be an addition of a good beach destination on your itinerary. (We found out later about this) ****TRAVEL IN ITALY**** --> Out mode of transport between the 4 cities was through trains. The trains were really good, and so were the stations. --> Sometimes we had to do a change of trains, & we had a limited time window to catch another in like 15-20 mins, though it was a little tense sometimes, but luckily we were well on time on each instance. --> *TIP: If it is your first time in Europe, then do read about the train system, tickets, metro & stations, and things related to that prior to your tour, it would be easier. (It helped us as we had been to a similar place earlier) ****FOOD**** --> Well if you convert euro to rupees, you would feel that food is very expensive, but in 2 or 3 days you would be normal to that. --> There are a good number of Indian restaurants in Italy, that is a plus point (but more non-veg than veg) [Ganesh Ji, Venice is a really good restaurant] --> Take away Pizzas were what we took most of the times (they do have veg options for Pizza everywhere) --> Overall it can be a little tricky for food depending on your preferences & taste, but not that difficult to be a problem. (You can always carry a lot of ready-to-cook meals) ****OTHERS**** --> The climate at that time was kind of late winters, so it was soothing overall, a little cold somedays, and pleasant on others. --> You would find a lot of Bangladeshi vendors everywhere (except Amalfi), so as a person from Indian subcontinent you can always get things a little cheaper than others. ****VISA APPLICATION**** --> It is a smooth process, just be prepared with all the docs on time, specially the docs related to your company. --> **Tip: If you do not have your marriage certificate, then do remember to take the invitation card in "ENGLISH" --> **Tip: Always keep asking your travel agency to check and let you know the currently next available date for Visa interview, because you will be better prepared about when to be ready with the documents, as you never know what is the waiting period at that time, & it might create issues with your schedule. ****CURRENCY**** --> For currency exchange, you would find multiple organizations in your city, and it's a easy process. And we were recommended of "Centrum" by our travel Agent, and it was a really good option, the guy came to our home and did the process in half an hour. --> So, we took the exchanged currency in 2 formats: Cash(60%) & Card(40%) --> *Tip: It is a really good choice to carry currency in 2 formats, as card is also accepted there at hotels, many of the stores and restaurants. >>>>>>>>Travel Triangle<<<<<<<< --> We really feel that this is a great platform for any travel, because you do not need to invest a lot of time in contacting different agencies for their packages & itineraries. Here, you can just put your requirements, & different agencies will give you the quotations, their itineraries at one place. --> Our Travel Triangle companion "Shilpa Verdhan" has been a really great guide and help to plan our travel, she always responded positively about our requirements, and would arrange very quickly the travel agencies after any update in our requirements. :) >>>>>>>>Travel Masterz<<<<<<<< --> We had already talked to a lot of travel agencies, but the thing which impressed us the most about Travel Masterz was their knowledge about the places. Whenever we used to talk to travel agencies, they would simply just tell the same old places, which are the most common touristy ones, and that was our problem, we did not want our tour to be like that. And we wanted to know about some other good options which are not the same old ones, and then when we had a conversation with "Arpita" from Travel Masterz, we felt really good with the way she was so open to share her great knowledge about the different options we can choose. And that is the best part about them, their knowlwdge and their willigness to suggest something new for your travel. --> As already mentioned above in detail, the hotels which they provided were impressive, specially Amalfi & La Spezia ones were amazing, and the best part was their choice of locations in all 4 cities. --> Another great thing about them was the prebooked tours which they included in our package, all of those were really really great (again as mentioned above in detail, specialy Venice & Amalfi ones) --> All the airport pickups were well arranged, with professional taxi services. --> Also Arpita & Amit (another employee), both were really helpful in our Visa process, and all the other planning of our tour. --> The only bad experience we had with them was the last half day of our tour i.e. in Venice. So, 4 days back our flights got cancelled, and we hadn't got any update for our flight which was supposed to be next morning. Then we had to spend 3 4 hours trying to calling the airlines while we were to enjoy in Venice, and then finally after a 50 mins of waiting on 1 call, we were able to talk to the airlines, and then they published our new tickets for another flight which was also in the morning only, and they accepted it was their fault, and if we would not have called them on time, the flight which we would have got at the airport would have been after 1 day. So, it was very irritating for us at that time, and we feel that even though it was a mistake on airlines, but also it is a responsibility on travel agencie's part to proactively look upon such a thing, and instead of we calling the airlines they could have done the same. --> But that was the only hiccup we had from Travel Masterz's end, other than that it was seamless & as mentioned above they are a really great company with great knowledge to plan your travel, and we would definitely recommend them to everyone !! :) ****FINAL WORDS**** --> Overall it was a really memorable & satisfactory experience for both of us,and would thank Travel Triangle, Travel Masterz & google research for that :) :)

Thanks Travel triangle for giving me opportunity to take the service of Travel Masterz.. They are amazing and trip went so smoothly in abroad i dint expect.. My first international trip to Italy.. And whatever we have planned everything was so perfect.. Trip to Lacpri island is the most amazing part of our trip.
