    Hemant's 6 days trip to Jammu

    A Perfectly Planned Kashmir Trip with Exceptional Service! We recently traveled from Indore to Kashmir with our family and booked our tour package through Paradise Port Tour and Travels. It was truly a wonderful experience! Right from the start, the team was extremely professional and helpful. The
    lady who handled our booking was always in touch before and during the trip, ensuring everything was well-arranged. She even took care of booking all the rides in Kashmir and kept us informed about every place we visited. A special gesture that touched our hearts was when she surprised us with a birthday cake for our son during the trip—such a thoughtful act! A big shoutout to Iqbal Bhai, our cab driver, who made our journey even more special. He was always on time, drove safely, and guided us through all the must-visit places in Kashmir. His warm and kind nature made us feel comfortable throughout the trip. Thanks to Paradise Port Tour and Travels for making our Kashmir trip so memorable! Highly recommended for anyone planning a hassle-free Kashmir vacation.

    The hotels were 3 star and charging 7k per night in Gulmarg was not good. Had to carry bags due to road blocked by snow, cigarate buds in bed, no TV working, heater was small and making noise. The hotel near lal chowk was too missing TV and no care for customer, no cleaning.

    We had an amazing time in Kashmir with Drip in Kashmir! Our trip last week was nothing short of magical! Ms. Azmat deserves special praise for crafting a meticulously planned itinerary, covering every aspect - from comfortable hotels to reliable cab services and carefully curated places to visit. H
    er attention to detail made all the difference! Our cab driver, Mr. Irfan, was an excellent guide throughout the trip, ensuring we made the most of our time in Kashmir. The warm gesture by Mr. Yasir, presenting us with beautiful Kashmiri shawls on our houseboat stay, left a lasting impression. Overall, our experience with Drip in Kashmir was phenomenal! Your team's dedication to delivering exceptional service has left us with unforgettable memories. Thank you for making our Kashmir trip truly special!!!
