Ejaj Shaikh

Gurgaon

Ejaj's 6 days trip to Solan

All the things were perfect from start to end but only one suggestion i want to give is that whenever you are sending the driver pr guide the company should see to that the driver is having proper knowledge about the route or he should be aware about how to use the navigation. Thanks alot for all

the things. Solang Valley trip.
