    Gokul's 6 days trip to Solan

    We recently completed our Himachal trip across Shimla, Kullu, Manali and it was a very wonderful experience thanks to Travel Talkies in partnership with Travel Triangle. Ms Preeti has assisted right from the start in customising the itinerary, planning the best possible hotel stays throughout and h
    as always been in constant touch with us ensuring the trip was progressing well and we didn't have any issues at any point in time. That was such a lovely gesture and I have not seen that level of hospitality and customer satisfaction with any other travel agents in any of our trips before. It was great working with her and I would recommend the services of Travel Talkies for anyone travelling to Himachal in future. And the next big thanks should go to our driver for the trip Mr Rajender Singh sir who took care of us really well right from Airport pickup to final drop.. He guided as on each sight seeing spot, planned things perfectly from start to end of the day, ensuring we were having a great time throughout.. He never hesitated to take us to small places nearby which was not there in original itinerary but we had time for the day. And the best part was his planning and execution of visit to Rohtang Pass where we had breathtaking views and also we could see the Pass right from start to end providing us complete satisfaction. It was an awesome experience travelling with him and looking forward for future as well. Overall the trip with Travel Talkies team was very good and memorable, highly recommend everyone to consider them for future tours if you want the best customer experience Rohtang Pass, Shimla Mall Road, Kufri and horse ride, Hidimba Devi Temple and all the five days of stays and food provided by Snow White Resort and Manav Valley

    We recently traveled with Spiti Holiday Adventure and absolutely loved the experience! Our stay covered Shimla, Sangla, Kalpa, Nako, Kaza, . The hotels and homestays at all places were amazing, spacious, clean, and managed by very supportive staff. The stay at Kaza was in an older property and the f
    ood was average, but the warm hospitality made up for it. Overall it was good.
