Sagar's 13 days trip to Melbourne

Simply Amazing trip with lots n lots of good memories. Pros : It was a 12 n / 13 d trip planned to perfection. Meenakshi our original poc was very very helpful and always available to answer our queries. She not only listened to the things we wanted to do in Australia but also suggested a lot of good places as well. Ty Meenakshi. Later Raunak was very helpful in the visa application and was in touch with us even during the trip. Kudos Wanderbird Holidays. All the tour arranged were really good. Will definitely think of you guys for my next trip. Cons : Our Novotel Cairns Hotel room was very bad. Would definitely give it a 2*.

Avina's 9 days trip to Melbourne

5 star We recently returned from an incredible trip to Australia, all thanks to the amazing team at Wanderbird Holidays! From start to finish, the planning was seamless, with every detail thoughtfully handled by Raunak and the team. We enjoyed every moment, and it was so reassuring to have their consistent support and guidance along the way. The personalised recommendations for each city by Raunak, on top of the customised itinerary made by Meenakshi, made our experience even more amazing, and knowing they were just a call away during our travels gave us complete peace of mind. This was hands-down one of our best-planned vacations, and we can’t wait to book more adventures with Wanderbird Holidays. We’ve already recommended them to our family, and we’re confident they’ll love the experience just as much as we did!
