Lokeshdevghare's 5 days trip to Kashmir

3 days ago
Firstly, the itinerary provided was well-planned and covered some of the most stunning destinations in the region, including Srinagar, Gulmarg, Pahalgam. The transportation arrangements were comfortable, and the vehicle was clean and well-maintained. Our car Driver was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the experience even more enjoyable by sharing interesting insights about the local culture and history. The accommodations were generally good, though a few could benefit from better maintenance. For instance for Pahalgam stay. However, the locations of the hotels were excellent, offering beautiful views of the surrounding landscapes. The food provided during the trip was delicious, and it was a great introduction to Kashmiri cuisine. However, I would suggest offering more variety, especially for travelers with dietary restrictions. Overall, it was a memorable experience, and I appreciate the effort your company put into organizing the trip. I look forward to traveling with you again and hope the points mentioned will help enhance future tours. Thank you for making this trip special!

Arnav's 6 days trip to Kashmir

4 days ago
Kashmir is full of scams. Be it pony ride, or shikara or even some union cabs. Complementary one hour Shikara ride is just an eye catcher, when you go to the ghats which ofcourse your travel agent will decide for, you get to near that you can only take a good peaceful ride only if you are ready to pay a minimum of 2k. Else you can only go max of a 100m which will hardly take 20mins. The rest 40 mins you will be sitting still and get pestered by hawkers selling Kahwa or sometimes by photographers. Pony ride at Pahalgam is the biggest scam. While your cab driver will be assisting you to negotiate with the pony owners he actually is trying to get cut. Same with cabs at Sonmarg. Now let's come to the good part Hotels Dewan Vintage gulmarg Of robusta retreat Were seriously good With good service and rooms as per the prices respectively. While Eden at Pahalgam had a great room but unfortunately pathetic service. Buffet dinner and breakfast being a disaster where you have to wait to even get plates or bowls. Then for every dish you need to ask to refill them. Breakfast was the worst where we needed to literally wait for the paratha and omelette because all the items were over and paratha was the only item we got. I would like to say that our driver was knowledgeable and was helpful. The vehicle provided was good.

Suraj's 5 days trip to Kashmir

11 days ago
Hotels provided in Pahalgam and gulmarg were good but in srinagar, The hotel Dar rehman was below par. Rooms were small, not cleaned, in one room there was no hot water and in other room every outlet was having boiled water even in jet spray. Extra beddings were not comfortable at all. We asked them to replace the extra bedding but they did not replace it and said that's all they have got. Blankets were not clean and after repeated requests to travel agency they did not changed the room or hotel. Travel agency were also not responding on times. And in the end when we asked them to drop at pathankot in place of Jammu, they asked for rupees 10000 for just 100 km. So overall Kashmir is very beautiful place but our experience with Travel agency and hotels were mixed. Won't recommend the agency to others they even charged extra for our child even after mentioning in the itenary and denied accepting that the child was included at all.

Shounak's 6 days trip to Kashmir

22 days ago
Everything was exceptionally good. A special thanks to our coordinator shahid to manage last moment plan change in pahalgam due to heavy snowfall. He has coordinated very well during crisis. And a huge shout out to our driver Touqeer he was professional and yet friendly. Guided us properly throughout the journey. Without his pro driving skills we would have end up in big trouble in the snowy evening of Pahalgam trip. Hats off to the whole team Fathima, Shadid and Touqeer. Thanks making our trip to Kashmir so memorable. Will surely visit again with Kashmir Heavens team. Thanks for everything. We were travelling to Pahalgam from Gulmarg and on the way heavy snowfall started. We enjoyed a lot initially. Created a lot of memories but soon it became a nightmare when we got stuck on the road for more than 10 hours due to roadblocks. It was a thrilling night. But Touqeer has managed to somehow drive in the slippery road and finally we reached Pahalgam without any major issues. It was a night to remember forever.

Priyanka's 4 days trip to Kashmir

a month ago
Overall experience was good. At Pehalgam we stayed at The Villagio as the one was chosen by us it was the best hotel. The hotel at Srinagar was Golden Sands which lacked good breakfast, dont forget to carry Shower gel, tooth brush etc. and warm clothes as they only provide a soap and Shampoo pouch and heater only from 7 to 10 and few hours in morning otherwise u have to manage with blankets. The driver Nasir was good in nature, apart from few hicups all was great and accomodating reporting to his boss every small thing .. our Tour guide Ms. Rida was always supportive, guiding us and always atttentive to our cause, even on sunday and one day where she needed to intensively communicate with transporter. We are satisfied with the response time and the services. However she did nt fulfill her promise of complimentary honeymoon package (Just a cake though) may be due to christmas eve. All together a good trip. thanks to travel triangle for the services. Gulmarg Gandola Shikara Ride, Dal Lake Snowful Betaab Valley Aru Valley Shankracharya Temple
