    Meghana's 4 days trip to Kerala

    The timings of cab availability should be mentioned before giving the quotation. The places to be visited should also be taken into consideration according to the client needs. We have faced issues related to cab driver timings and availability. That was a bad experience though. The person who have
    given the quotation should be available till the tour plan gets over. In our case another person came into existence who doesn’t respond like the before person who has promised for a good tour plan.
