    Srujanab's 4 days trip to Bangalore

    We have been to Ooty, Kodaikanal and Palani on a family trip The itinerary was perfectly scheduled by Mr. Rahul Singh from travel triangle. The support from Rahul was fantastic. He need to be rewarded for his tremendous support.   We visited all the places in the itinerary as per plan and we hav
    e enjoyed a lot. The 4 stared hotels picked up on the team are imaginary They gave us the best suites.   There were variety of food options. The breathtaking landscapes and pleasant weather were definitely the highlights of the trip The local markets sell fresh produce, homemade chocolates, and souvenirs   Only thing is they need to have supportive drivers and English speaking people.

    Sarvendra's 3 days trip to Bangalore

    Planner is just a middle person working with Hotels and travelers. Though they claim to have control over everything it's not the case. Better to go with a local agent who is connected and knows things.
