    Manisha's 7 days trip to Dharamshala

    My trip booked with travel talkies for Manali, Dharamshala and Dalhousie, was a wonderful experience from start to finish. My point of contact, Preeti ji, was incredibly warm and cordial. She checked in with me regularly throughout the trip to ensure everything was going smoothly and that I wasn’t f
    acing any issues. Her constant support made me feel very comfortable and well taken care of. I stayed at three hotels — Jannat Resort and Spa (Manali),Quartz Himalayan Brothers (Dharmashala), and Grand View Hotel (Dalhousie) — and each one offered very good service with clean, comfortable rooms. The cab driver assigned to me, Jatin Sharma , was also very polite and courteous. He drove safely, was punctual, and made the entire journey comfortable. I had a seamless and enjoyable experience!
