    Vipeen Kumar

    Patna

    Vipeen's 6 days trip to Shimla

    It was an amazing trip and we can't wait to visit again! I highly recommend traveling through THE IDEAL TOURS PRIVATE LTD to others. #vacation Our July tour of Shimla and Manali was a perfect blend of nostalgia, natural beauty, and adventure. The memories of sipping hot tea while gazing at the mist-
    covered mountains, the thrill of snow sports, and the warm hospitality of the locals will forever be etched in my heart. These hill stations, with their unique charm and scenic splendor, truly provided a rejuvenating escape from the summer heat.

    Meerarora's 5 days trip to Shimla

    Our travel experience was very good with Travel Vichar. Ms, Shilpa (from travel vichar) arranged itinerary very well. Quality of rooms and services of hotel Clarks Inn Suites in Kangra and Moonglade in Dalhausi was great. Hotel at Kangra (Clarks Inn Suits) was awesome. Food ambiance and manageme
    nt are really good Clarks Inn Suites was the best among all the three hotels. Driver, Mr. Kewal Kumar was nice person and his driving skill is very good. Travel Agent Ms. Shilpa is very nice and supported where need. But the hotel in McLeodganj, Sky Bhagsu was not good. It is like a guest house not like a 3 star hotel. Rooms are very small just like stores in houses. Even basic amenities are not available in rooms. Thanks to Ms. Shilpa, Travel Vichar and Travel Triangle for great experience.

    My wife and I recently returned from a trip in Shimla and Manali, and we couldn't be happier with the entire experience! We booked our trip through Travel Talkies, and they truly exceeded our expectations. However, we would like to tell one suggestion for next customers that to avoid Hotel Snow Vil
    la in Manali, which was not seems to be good in our experience. The hotel Orison in Shimla was perfect and we were expecting the same in Manali as well.

    We hired the taxi services from Turn on vacation for 7 day during our himachal trip. The vehicle provided was a good one and our driver was very helpful and a reliable person. He was very flexible and well tailored to our plan. The pricing for 7 day long trip was reasonable amount, considering with
    the state tax and tolls including. I would definitely hire their service if I plan any further visit to Himachal. Thanks for your service travel triangle.

    Rahul's 3 days trip to Shimla

    The hoilday package offered by the travel agency Travelepedia was economical and well within the budget. It was a 2 days & @ Nights hoiday package for Kullu & Manali. The travel agency offered us transportation to and from Manali. The hotel was a really awesome in terms of hospitality, ambience & fo
    od. We were provided cab for sightseeing and the driver was very cooperative. We had a gala time holidaying in Kullu & Manali. It was a very pleasant holiday altogether. I am satisfied by the services provided by travel agency.

    Mumbai

    Shilpesh's 7 days trip to Shimla

    The staff at Hotel in Manali lodge where we were going to have special honeymoon candlelight dinner was rude serving us candlelight dinner. The videos shown to me of candlelight dinner were different than what they given us in actual. There was mismatch in itinerary provided to cab driver and me.
    Also check-in/check-out scheduled listed on Travel Triangle and actual check-in/check-out date for Hotel in Dharmashala were incorrect due to some technical glitch which resulted me in paying out of my pocket. Despite all these issues we were able to enjoy the trip but I was expecting more smoother experience.

    Kumar's 6 days trip to Shimla

    Service for the trip was good overall. Quick response from agent to attend any issue. However , the hotels were changed last minute leaving no room for options to change. Felt that quoted price didn't match with the standard of hotels provided to us( hotels with small rooms/uncozy locations with no
    outdoor view.Few Hotels provided were upto standard). Visit to Rohtang and adventures of Kullu valley made our trip pleasant and joyful. Cab driver was helpful and polite always.
