Amandeep's 3 days trip to Solan

Very good experience. I have taken your services earlier as well and I know my trip will go as planned. Thanks for all the arrangements. Your team responded all queries very promptly. Appreciate support from Kewal, Poonam, and Prerna. Only if cancellation policy may have some more relaxation. Due t

o unavoidable reasons if trip getting canceled then should give more discount on the refund amount. On the way back driver was very concern about his payment. Not very professional, however driver's owner handle it very well. The horse riding was the highlight.

Best Tour Experience Thank You Travel Triangle!* This was truly one of the best tours we’ve had, all thanks to Travel Triangle! Our package from Amritsar to Dharamshala was beautifully planned and executed. A special shoutout to Mr. Vansh, our driver without a doubt, one of the best we’ve ever h

ad. His driving was not only safe and smooth, but he also made sure we felt comfortable, relaxed, and well taken care of throughout the journey. He was polite, punctual, and always ready to help with a smile. His local knowledge and calm attitude added so much value to our travel experience! Accommodation was excellent clean, comfortable, and well-managed. What impressed us the most was the quick response to our requests, even on a single call. Food at the hotels was delicious, fresh, and well-served truly satisfying after long travel days. Overall, this trip was a perfect blend of fun, comfort, and great service. Kudos to the entire team!

Pprem's 4 days trip to Solan

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.. co

nstantly 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
