    Karthik's 16 days trip to Japan

    Had a good overall experience planning a South Korea trip with Travel Triangle. Their team handled everything end-to-end, making the process quite smooth and hassle-free. Payments were straightforward and there was no confusion or last-minute trouble—credit to the team for solid coordination and clear communication. However, a few things could be improved: The cab arrangement for one local transfer was disappointing; the vendor was informed, but the experience still stood out negatively against an otherwise well-organized trip. Hotel choices in Busan and Daegu could have been better. While locations were prime, the rooms were very small and cramped, and we ended up with a single bed for two adults. Restrooms were especially tight and uncomfortable. Overall, recommend Travel Triangle for their reliability and ease of planning, but hope to see some attention to hotel quality and better vendor management going forward.

    Ankita's 5 days trip to Japan

    I booked via TT, agency Serene Holidays for my South Korea tour. My tour was a mix of personal planning and agency planning. I was worried that this mix and match may create an issue for the agent. However, Darpan was really amazing while helping me plan for the trip. Given that we were extremely unsure, he demonstrated an amazing level of patience, was open to multiple ideas (thanks to the confused us!) and also helped us in zeroing down to the best solution given our travel intention. We planned part of our Seoul + Busan tour along with additional requests like pickup and drop which wasn't in the original plan. Darpan accommodated all our requests, even when some changed at the last minute. This really took the stress out of the trip planning. On the actual trips - the partners for local tours identified were amazing. The trips were extensive, the guides were knowledgeable, and we were able to experience the place with the full charm. No undercutting, and no overdoing! The trips started from our hotel which was an added plus. The hotel in Busan, which was booked by them had an amazing location - right in the middle of the train station and the subway. It literally took us 2 mins to reach either location. Only thing - the rooms were very small. However, I can ignore that keeping the other benefits in mind. All in all, thanks to TT and Serene for making this a beautiful event. I will definitely keep them in mind while booking future trips !

    Anita's 6 days trip to Japan

    The services of the travel agent - Street Romeo was excellent . Very professional and took care of everything. The involvement of TT was limited. A lot of repeated automated mails from TT and quotes that keep coming long after the trip is over. The service could be more personal.
