    Karthikeyan's 7 days trip to Florence

    "KARTHIKEYAN PRABAKARAN" "Got to know about WiseYatra from Travel Triangle. The plan was to visit europe for winter vacation .They helped in preparing the best itinerary within our budget. There were changes in our plan and wiseyatra worked on our changes and got our trip set. They also provid
    ed help on the visa process. One need to prepare all the documents needed to submit at VFS. Wise Yatra made it easy to complete this part smoothly with there assistance. They keep on following with us for the documents and verified them before submitting it. They also connected with us and explained us patiently to understand the each and every part of itinerary and how to reach that place. Plan was so well managed that and was able to have great vacation. Visited three countries and 4 cities in 12 days is best part of this whole trip. Hotels which were booked are such that it would be very easy to commute to any attraction places. Thanks to WiseYatra on this wonderful experience."

    Monojit's 9 days trip to Florence

    "The thing I most liked about Wise Yatra is the flexibility they give while customising an itinerary. Ours being a kind of budget tour of France and Italy from 10.02.2024 to 22.02.2024, the hotels WY had provided for us were all top notch. The breakfast at each of the hotels were to die for. Compare
    d to their counterparts like SOTC, Thomas Cook, MMT, the company and it's team were very much flexible and supportive when it came to the payment schedule. We made 80% payment of the total tour cost only 7 days before the commencement of the tour as our Visa got approved only a week before the tour. Wise Yatra completely understood our situation and didn't demand for payment of installment till the time our Visa was approved. During the tour, when we were on our own enjoying the beauty of Europe, they were kind enough to check on us whether we were doing all good and stuff. They were prompt to respond to any of the queries before and during the tour. I would definitely recommend WY to my friends and family. Looking forward to future travels with Wise Yatra. Thanks to Madhu Madam and her team. Kudos"

    Shubhashish's 7 days trip to Florence

    "I recently had the pleasure of experiencing a 7-night, 8-day trip to Paris and Switzerland organized by Wiseyatra, and it was truly unforgettable. From the moment I booked the trip, their attention to detail and professionalism were evident. The itinerary was expertly crafted, allowing us to exp
    lore the iconic landmarks of Paris, from the Eiffel Tower to the Louvre, and then seamlessly transition to the breathtaking landscapes of Switzerland, where we indulged in mountain adventures and serene lake views. The accommodations provided were top-notch, offering comfort and luxury after a day of exploration. The guides were knowledgeable and enthusiastic, enhancing our experience with their insights and local expertise. One of the highlights was the culinary journey we embarked on, sampling delicious French pastries in Paris and savoring Swiss chocolate in the heart of Switzerland. Every meal was a delight, showcasing the rich flavors of each region. Overall, I cannot thank Wiseyatra enough for organizing such a fantastic trip. It exceeded all my expectations and left me with cherished memories that will last a lifetime. I highly recommend Wiseyatra to anyone looking for a seamless and unforgettable travel experience."
