Pprem's 4 days trip to Shimla

Hi, Hotel: Overall good..food was really good . Hotel voucher mentioned 2 super deluxe rooms but we got 1 room with balcony and other room without balcony Driver: good driving skills and smooth driving but constantly speaking on phone and drives with one hand and other hand holding his phone.. constantly chewing Pan and spitting outside. Otherwise good on timing and supportive person In general, Rohtang pass trip from Manali was very costly when I compare with my other friends experience.. just 2 adventure games and winter dress,they charged 5000 and cab 6500...felt cheated here... But overall good experience and thanks for arranging this trip

Virendra's 9 days trip to Shimla

I want to give 1 star but feedback is not submitting below 3 stars so i have to give them 3 stars forcefully. I did not attend the Himachal trip, not by choice, but because of the serious and unforeseen geopolitical situation that made travel unsafe and impossible. Despite reaching out via email for clarity and support, I received no timely or responsible response from your team. Flights were canceled, regions like Shimla and Dharamshala were under high alert, and travel was clearly not feasible. In such circumstances, citing standard cancellation policies and offering only a credit note is highly disappointing and insensitive. This experience reflects a lack of seriousness in handling customer communication and crisis situations. I expected better professionalism and empathy. I sincerely hope you take this feedback seriously and improve your communication, support, and refund policy handling in future cases.

I had booked my entire 5N-6D trip through Turn on vacation for the first time and I am extremely happy with the experience with them, Thanks to Mr. Sandeep who arranged the whole trip and booked hotels as per our suitability. . Cab during the trip was very comfortable specially the cab driver was very polite and soft spoken. Overall It’s a wonderful experience. Will definitely recommend and consider Turn on vacation for our travels plans.
