It was great experience with the travel. Driver was expert in his job. I was feeling that I am travelling on Delhi roads while we are travelling on shimla roads. It was very smooth journey with safety and rules.

Tushar's 4 days trip to Dharamshala

I had a wonderful trip to Nainital, thanks to Sandeep. Unlike many travel agents who disappear after taking the payment, Sandeep genuinely prioritizes customer satisfaction. He goes above and beyond to ensure your trip is smooth, enjoyable, and truly memorable. I highly recommend booking your travel with him at least once — you won’t be disappointed!

Tushar Saxena Delhi

I enjoyed myself after compromising the money i paid to agents.

Pathetic experience with agent from Mr. Aman joshi (easy go) he convinced me stating that end stage other agencies change hotel and i believed him. I asked him before a week that he has booked hotels we agreed. He said yes. But he was lying. End momement he called me that hotel at shimla is not available. Also hotel at manali was not good. Alternate hotel provided for shimla was with lower budget than i paid for. He didnt listen and also Ms. Vanshika is useless. Not a single day she called and ask about hows journey going on. Rather in problem i called her and she said diplomatically ok i will check and update, but no update. Total waste of money. I am in dilemma to go with my upcoming tour after 15 days. Only driver Mr. Kishorilal was good remaining experience with family was 1 out of 10. Very bad service by agent of travel triangle as well as Easy Go agency. They share good reviews of their customers to trap people.
