    Pavani's 4 days trip to Solan

    I have always booked my trips through MakeMyTrip, but this was my first time trying Travel Triangle. Initially, I was a bit skeptical, but taking that chance turned out to be one of the best decisions I made. My first interaction was with Samjana, who was extremely courteous and, in fact, advised m
    e not to proceed with payment without checking with her. That level of responsibility and care really stood out to me. The travel agents who reached out gave very reasonable quotes. A special mention to Neesha, who was incredibly patient and helped me choose the best hotel. She also ensured that Baglamukhi Devi temple darshan was included in my itinerary, which was very important to me. Throughout the journey, the team was always just a message or call away, which gave me a lot of confidence as a solo traveler. Vikas from TravelEPedia (supervisor/manager) was also very supportive and ensured that my trip went smoothly, even during a road transport strike in Himachal. That kind of coordination during unexpected situations truly deserves appreciation. The drivers, Mr. Rahul and Mr. Vijay, were very humble, professional, and ensured I felt safe throughout. They covered all promised places and made the journey comfortable. A special shoutout to Mr. Vijay from Himalayan Mysteries — a true gentleman. He was respectful, well-mannered, and went above and beyond to ensure my two-wheeler trip was safe. He even shared the history of places along the way, which made the experience richer. On the last day, he made sure I boarded my bus safely and only left after I was settled. That level of care is rare these days. What I truly appreciated about this entire team — Travel Triangle, TravelEPedia, and Himalayan Mysteries — is that they are genuinely people-centric. When you feel safe, supported, and cared for, paying a little extra doesn’t matter. As a solo traveler, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thank you for making this journey so memorable.

    Mishrapratik's 6 days trip to Solan

    We recently completed a 7-day trip, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish. I want to give a special shout-out to two people who made this journey truly memorable for us. First, a huge thank you to Ankita, who was our point of contact. Her coordination was seamless. She p
    rovided proper follow-ups at every stage and ensured that everything was perfectly organized. Her support played a key role in making this trip stress-free and enjoyable. Most importantly, I want to express my deepest gratitude to our driver, Anil. Since my wife is pregnant, we were naturally a bit concerned about the long hours of travel. However, the moment we informed Anil, he took exceptional care of us. He drove extremely smoothly and was very cautious on the road to ensure my wife’s comfort. He was professional, punctual, and very polite throughout the 7 days. It is rare to find such a dedicated team. If you are looking for a safe, reliable, and well-coordinated travel experience, I highly recommend their services. Thank you, Ankita and Anil, for taking such great care of us!
