Varkala Family Packages

iculously planned and executed by Mr. Vineet (Namaskaram Travels). I was worried about traveling with 2 young kids (4 & 1.8Yrs) and elderly parents (65 & 62 Yrs), but Namaskaram Travels (Mr. Vineet) made it a breeze We were lucky to have Mr. Karthik as our driver/guide for 8 days. He's one of the best I've met - humble, polite, and with a great personality! A true Munnar local. The accommodation was top-notch, the transportation was very comfortable, and the activities/sightseeings were enjoyable for both kids and adults. Mr. Vineet at Namaskaram Travels was super responsive, helpful, and flexible, ensuring that our needs were met throughout the trip. Their local knowledge and expertise really shone through, and we got to experience the best of Kerala's natural beauty and culture. We Highly recommend Namaskaram Travels for anyone looking for a stress-free and memorable family vacation! 5/5 stars!

activities throughout our trip were spot-on, especially that Kayaking experience we had near Varkala, which became a real highlight! Mahima at Postcard Trips also deserves a big shoutout! Her prompt and helpful communication ensured everything ran smoothly throughout our journey. Overall, Postcard Trips exceeded our expectations. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend their services to anyone visiting Kerala! Small Suggestion: It would be incredibly helpful for vegetarian tourists if you could curate a personalized list of top vegetarian restaurants based on their cuisine preferences at each destination during their trip.

ghout the trip. I would like to give my experience and feedback: Hotels were suggested by us, there was no price negotiation done from 7C's Destination. I was getting the same hotel tariff as the agents. The agent does not suggest the hotels as per our suggestion and our needs, they lack a list of hotels. The itinerary is so vaguely mentioned and the driver is unaware about all the sightseeing places we want to visit daily. Driver appointed to us acted sweet , humble but was cunning , always confused and always trying to fool us. Day 1: He did not take us to sight seeing as we reached late. 2 waterfalls mentioned on the itenary were not visited, the reason being no water, dark etc. Accepted all the reasons given by him. Day 2: He would not take us for sightseeing, instead take us to spice garden Ayur valley and force us to buy from there as we will not get good quality spices anywhere else. He dropped us at the hotel and when we asked about the sightseeing, he couldn't take us as the itinerary was not shared with him.I had to call the 7C's Destination agent Mr. Renjit to talk to him. Eravikulam National park was closed he should have mentioned earlier after reaching Munnar Mr. Renjit is saying you cannot visit due to breeding time. Day 3: We could not visit Periyar national park as it was fully booked 1 day prior. We spoke with other guests who had done online booking. On top of that Mr. Renjit is blaming us for not reaching prior 1 pm. To summarise the trip: Delhi Trip agent was not ethical, suggested we cancel the trip request at the trip triangle and they would give additional Rs 10,000 discount. 7 C's Destination were talking about ethics but lack to fulfill comments mentioned in the itinerary. Driver was taking commission at every place we visited Spicy shopping, Ayurvedic centers, Kerala chips and even for bookings which we did by ourselves. We received constant complaint calls from the surfing and kayaking schools stating the driver asked for commission. On declining the commission the driver posted negative feedback on the internet. Driver would not stay in our hotel or nearby hotels. He would be late by 20mins to 30 mins in the morning to pick us from the hotel due to which we missed all the major sightseeings in Munnar and Varkala. Other tour guests were getting the discount at Jatayu Earth center while we did not get any discount. We have spent Rs 1,06,340 but it was not worth it. It could have been much better. Thanks and regards, Hardik Panchal.

customer who has paid almost full amount, but Saakshi the executive who contacted me was very supportive. Varkala resort was the best

and supportive throughout the journey. However, we faced a significant issue with the language barrier, which hindered our ability to communicate effectively with the driver. Despite assurances that the driver would be conversant in Hindi and English, we encountered difficulties in obtaining detailed guidance and instructions. We relied heavily on the itinerary provided, but unfortunately, it was not thoroughly explained to us. As a result, we had to repeatedly ask the driver about our next destination, which was disappointing. Regarding our hotel stays, we thoroughly enjoyed our time in Alleppey and Kovalam. However, our experience in Varkala was marred by a delay of over half an hour in confirming our booking. Furthermore, the air conditioning in our room was not up to the mark, and the bathroom was congested. In conclusion, while we enjoyed our journey, there are areas that require improvement. We suggest providing more effective local-level guidance and ensuring that drivers are more interactive and communicative. With these enhancements, your services will undoubtedly exceed customer expectations. Thank you for your attention to our feedback. Best regards, Sharath
