    Md's 4 days trip to Kumarakom

    Review of Our Kerala Trip with Travel Triangle & Wonder Sky Travels We recently completed a 4-day family trip to Munnar and Alleppey, Kerala, which was beautifully arranged by Travel Triangle in collaboration with Wonder Sky Travels. A special thanks to Ms. Divya , Ms. Radhika, Mr. Sandeep from Wo
    nder Sky Travels for their excellent coordination throughout the trip. They ensured everything went smoothly without any inconvenience. The hotel booked for us — The View Munnar — truly lived up to its name, offering breathtaking views and a peaceful stay. The houseboat experience in Alleppey was another highlight — a perfect place to relax and enjoy quality time with family and friends& Mararikulam Beach in Allpuzha. We would also like to appreciate our cab driver, Mr. Prajith, who made our journey even more delightful. He was very friendly, punctual, and jovial, and his driving skills were excellent. Overall, our Kerala trip organized by Travel Triangle and Wonder Sky Travels was a wonderful and memorable experience. We truly appreciate their efforts and would definitely recommend their services to others.

    Mitali's 5 days trip to Kumarakom

    The agent messed up with the hotel booking in Munnar and were trying to portray that I was the cruel person for questioning them on why the booking was not done even after extra payment for the desired room. The hotel that was provided last minute did not have a proper food options and as i was trav
    elling with senior citizen parents it caused a lot of problem as the property was in the interior. Yet i was being portrayed as cruel for raising my voice against this issue

    I booked my trip from Book It forget it. The overall experience was fine. But, few things needs to be improved. Their coordination with the hotel reservation managers was not up to the mark. I made a special request for cleaning the rooms which were not followed in 2 hotels out of 4. Hotels were als

    Dhruv Agarwal

    Mumbai

    Dhruv's 7 days trip to Kumarakom

    Had a great experience and very good trip. Everything booked and planned as per the final itinerary. Our drive was very good and humble but Kerala being a more of wild natural place so he could have been more adventurous. Saying this bcos we wanted to go to Top Station in munaar to see sunset or su
    nrise and hotel staff and other drivers suggested that it’s very safe route but our driver told it’s dangerous bcos of elephant presence on the route and he won’t go and so we have to drop that location. Also driver should be more enthusiastic and suggest good shopping (spices etc) and other hidden gems rather he was more interested in taking us to shopping and activities where I think the commission was arranged. But other than this he covered all the places in itinerary and was very polite through out the trip. Had a great trip and lot of memories.
