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.

    Ankita's 5 days trip to Bangalore

    The tour was very well planned. All the hotels were good. The bangalore hotel, Treebo akshaya was spacious however they do not provide dinner and breakfast was too poor. Mysuru hotel, Le Ruchi prince was excellent. Buffet dinner was superb, had multiple veg and non veg varieties. Rooms were so cla
    ssy and the staff was so helpful. Ooty hotel, Delightzz inn was the best best. Location, staff, food quality, rooms, Ambiance, staff everything was outstanding. Best part of the trip was when we travelled all the way from Mysuru to Ooty and the hotel is at the top of the hill. Literally at the end of the hill and when we entered that was the best best part.
