    Having a great experience with my first booking with Shrikant. Looking forward for many trips with him. He was a great support throughout our trip to kerala. I always thinking once we book the trip than they will not be there for us but my assumption was completely wrong. He is taking care everything, taking follow up for every single day. Even when we in need of smthing he was the 1st one to give us better solution. Malarikal was the best place to visit as we havn't seen smthing like that before
