Its time to reflect back and be thankful to the mesmerizing moments which we have gathered just because of 'Raunak' from Wanderbirds and Travel triangle. Raunak has arranged such an amazing trip for us that he has filled our lives with the merriment moments. He has customized the trip as per our requirements, gave suggestions of what to include and what not to, booking all the activities, flight tickets, internal movements and all stays etc. and everything was simply perfect. He was omnipresent as and when required. He was in constant touch with us during our trip and was ensuring that the day was well spent. The highly appreciating thing was that Raunak has helped us in claiming our insurance even after our trip. He has done the recommendable job. Thanks a lot Raunak from Wanderbirds for planning such an amazing and wonderful trip.Arihant Jain
