Lakshmi's 5 days trip to Bangalore

Had a great time at Mangalore. As usual Travel Triangle at its best. This is my 6th trip with Travel Triangle. Beginning till the End Travel Triangle was supportive., The trip was organised by M&M Cabs and Mr. Mahesh had co-ordinated really well with us for the trip. The driver was very good, co-operative and supportive. Couple of hotels were not so great, we had to go out to a different place for breakfast. Otherwise we had a memorable trip

Puppala's 4 days trip to Bangalore

The itenary can be planned better. There are mis communications that has happened. Few places are tempirarily closed/in operational but still they are added in itenary. For one place visit there is completely mis communication has happened what I get from travel agent and what I heard from cab driver are quite opposite. .. Overall it's a good experience but can be made better. In quote shared it is mentioned as hotel stay inclusive of dinner but the hotel stay is booked without dinner.

Mahesh's 4 days trip to Bangalore

The overall tour experience was good. The cab driver was polite, punctual, and guided us well throughout the trip. The hotel stay was comfortable; however, we were not provided with the balcony room as per our reservation. Although the issue was resolved the next day, such matters should ideally be addressed by the travel agent immediately to avoid inconvenience. Looking forward to better coordination in future trips.
